Their daughter Emma married Guy Davis and their daughter Dora married Ernest Drayton. Dora and Ernest are my husband's parents. Ruben and Helen were from Lapeer County Michigan. The only children I have listed are Edith and Lettie who died in Nov 1877 at 10 months. Helen died 5 July 1878 and Ruben married a Janette who died in 1894. The only child I have for them is Mary Ann who died at 11 months in 1894. Ruben had a brother Silas who married a Charlotte Furman. I'm guessing this was Helen's sister. Ruben and Helen were married at Silas and Charlotte's home. Ruben was in the Civil War. I have not sent for his war record yet. I do plan to. Do you have any information about their parents? Their mother Harriet remarried William Bentley. In the 1860 census there are 4 Bradshaws, 2 older Bentleys and 2 that are probably theirs. We also have some Stevens from Lapeer County. There is an Ezra and an Edwin, sons of Amon Stevens. Any connection there? I'd be happy to get any information you have.
