Surnames: Reed Schmitt Amen Gruber Kelly Brennan Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/Wg.2ADE/4574.1.1.1 Message Board Post: Hi Candy, Been doing some more research on Schmitt. It appears my Margaret (Maggie, Margaretha as she was called at various times) must be some relation to yours but not the exact same. Found out her father George L. Schmitt owned a Saloon at 105 Hampshire Street for some time in the 1860's & 70's. Her mother's name was "Eva" as listed in the 1860 Census. Siblings include Lizzie, Adam, Dina, Edith, Georgia. "Maggie" married Marcellus Reed in 1881. Marcellus ended up working for Miller & Arthur Drug Company after his "Reed & Burton" Confectionary House burned in 1880. George Miller was one of the owners of Miller & Arthur and he had married a "Margaret Schmitt" Daughter of prominent Quincy businessman "Adam Schmitt". I'm guessing this Adam must have been a relative to my Margaret, Maggie, etc. in some fashion. That's about it for now. Research continues. Thanks. Scott
