G-grandma was Grace Bell Barnes Adams Kast Osborn Thorpe Cowdry. From what I have been able to learn, she seems to have been a rather unusual and interesting lady for the times.... I don't believe she would be your Clara Belle. Grace was born July 4, 1885 in MI and passed away on July 20, 1972 in Haslett, Ingham Co., MI. Thanks so much for responding! Should you have questions I might take a stab at answering, let me know! Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
