Hello Casandra, Have not seen your name before. Are you working with Terry on Colegrove genealogy? This obit you sent was for my great grandfather. 12/31/1864 was actually his wedding day. Somewhere I have a clipping published on the occasion of their 50th wedding anniversary 12/31/1914. The obit is correct, however the subject line should read Charles Henry, instead of Asa. There were three Charles Henrys. Asa was this one's grandfather I believe. I think they are all in the rootsweb tree. Thanks for the email. I had never seen his obit before.

Hello Bob, I've actually been working on my COLEGROVE roots since before 2001 but I am now at a point in my research where I can begin to share more information. Terry's research has been of a great help to me in researching in location specific areas, as I hope my research has been of help to others. I'm certain that I have other old newspaper articles on Charles Henry's family. Mostly social tidbits and such... Lately, I have turned to collecting any and all Colegrove related newspaper articles in order to help me sort some of my data and place persons in their proper families. Here is a small article I found on Dwight Colegrove's daughter Evelyn that may be of interest to you if you do not already have it: Newspaper: Utica NY Observer Dispatch 1937 Tuesday, August 24, 1937 ANNOUNCEMENT has been made of the engagement of Miss Evelyn Colegrove daughter of the late Judge Dwight H. Colegrove and Mrs. Colegrove, to Edward p. Jones Jr., Cleveland, Ohio.
