HELP! HELP! >ANNEMARIE > > > Annemarie, There is this record: Joseph T. BYXBE and ELizabeth DUNN. married 27 Aug., 1863 by J.W. Ross, J.P., both of age (Book Old A, p. 83,l.26) There are also marriage records for: Robert NEEDHAM (1877) Mary D. NEEDHAM (1876) Nancy NEEDHAM (1876) Melissa NEEDHAM (1879) I don't see a BYXBY or BIXBY in the 1870 or 1880 census, and you seem to have the Needham 1870 and 1880 listings.
