Jim, The biography of Lyman Fay is far more extensive than I had remembered and includes his parents and childrem. In adddition, the birographies of his brother and son and their children are also there. I understand this branch is of New York descent and John Fay's, a New Yorker, is also included. This area was originally settled by immigrants from New England, including many New Yorkers. Cathy Kubly was kind enough to post them to the website she coordinates. Check: http://genexchange.com/bio.cfm?state=WI&ID=5493 http://genexchange.com/bio.cfm?state=WI&ID=5494 http://genexchange.com/bio.cfm?state=WI&ID=2749 http://genexchange.com/bio.cfm?state=WI&ID=5492 The children went all over the midwest, so I hope this info helps any number of researchers. I believe there are descendants of this family still living in Wheatland and the surrounding areas. I also suspet this family may be associated somehow with the Fays around Burlington WI, in Racine county just a few miles away. Cathy also sent me the bios as word documents so if you would like them just drop me a note at madgrad77@hotmail.com in the next few days.
