    1. [FAY] Fay--Michigan
    2. Today I went to the Monroe Co. Archives (Unfortunately this, the only Wednesday that I can get off from work, the Genealogy Societies Archives were closed--and this is the only day of the week they are open.) But I did do well at the Monroe Co. Archives. The following Fays are buried in Carleton, MI. at the Carleton Cemetery. Anna F., Charlotte, Francis, Leo F., Olin J., William Edward. Wilmer Fay is Buried at the Carleton Mausoleum in Ash Twp. I also have obits for Austin Fay,b. 1859; Charles F. Fay b. abt 1858; Anna (Harryman) Fay (wife of Edward) b. abt 1853; Old Man Fay (father of Austin and Francis); Daniel Fay b. 1865; Austin Fay b. ; Charlotte Fay (wife of Francis Fay) b. 1839; Perry C. Fay b. 1879; Dr. O. F. Fay d. 1923; Mrs. Florence Fay b. abt.1891(wife of Jenner Fay); Jenner Fay b. 1891; Leo F. Fay (son of Edward and Anna Harryman Fay)--part of this obit is missing. d. 1945; Sister M Basilla (nee Margaret Fay); Mary Butler Fay b. 1871 (wife of Wilmer Fay); and Francis Fay B. 1828. Several of these have already been posted by Bob Fay. These 2 obits are a mystery to be sure or maybe just need more research: William Fay b. 1863 d.1908--it looks like this may be an incorrect date but not sure. Also there is a very vague obit on Edward Fay, d. 1908. Maybe William and Edward are the same person?? This is confusing because someone wrote on the William Fay obit card says "cem. b. 1857 cem. d. 1906), but they also hand wrote Edward after William as a middle name, as you can see these are totally different dates. The only thing that I could find at the Belleville Historical Society is plot map of Huron Twp 1876. It show Fanny Fay owed a large amount of property on the Huron River. I am going to the library today and try to get an obit on Geo Fay and see if I can find one of John Fay. The Tyler Road Cemetery of Belleville, MI lists John M. Fay d. 1909 lot 59; Lucy Fay d. 1892 lot 59; Kitty M. Fay d. 1881. If anyone would like a copy of any of this let me know and I will scan. If Tena Anderson will contact me, I will keep my eyes open for the names she is looking for. Sincerely, Linda
