Daniel Van Antwerp is listed in the 1850 census of Yates County, New York, as age 36 with his 34 year old wife Sarah and 4 children, Catherine age 11, Mary H, age 9, Isaac W, age 7 and John B age 5. This family, with additional children is listed in the 1860 census of Yates County and by 1870 have removed to Lyons in Ionia County, Michigan, where Daniel and Sarah are living with 3 of their sons, John B, Walter D, and Abraham W. In 1880, sons John B and Abraham W are in Ottawa County, Kansas but they appear to have soon returned to Michigan. I have additional detail about the children in this family but can not locate any indication as to who were Daniel's parents. The death of their son John B gives his mother's maiden name as Servant and the transcript on the LDS Beta site lists the father as David although David and Daniel are easily confused in handwriting, most other renditions are as Daniel. Does anyone have any further clues on this line? Thanks Holly
