Ira was my gr-gr-gramdfather and I have been searching for him for years. He last shows up in Berrien Co MI (my home town) where his son Reed arrived i 1849 and Ira came two years later (info from old correspondence from my gr-grandmother Mary Jane Ferris Jewell). He is on 1840 census in Ohio with Reed and other son Delos (buried there). I can not find him buried in MI, but correspondence says he may have gone west when another son arrived and wanted hime to go to Pike's Peak. Second wife is Hannah. First wife (mother of Reed) is unknown. I have 1812 War records. Nothing else on Martha Burch. Edmund was married four or five times tho and I have list of all children from each marriage.
