I'm seeking info on Francis M. "Frank" WARD who married Mary Elizabeth DeFORD on 11 Jul 1858 in Elkhart Co., IN. They had 11 children according to the 1900 US Census in Lake Twp., Missaukee Co., MI. But by 1900 only 7 were still living. I have names for all of the children except for 3 boys, who were all born, I believe, in Elkhart County. I have the following children for them : Lucinda, John Ulysses, Mary Jane, Lynes Hathaway (my great grandfather), William, Alma, Loretta, called Rettie, and Frank, Jr. Any help with this family that moved to Home Twp. (near Edmore), Montcalm Co., MI in 1878-79. Mary Elizabeth (DeFORD) WARD remarried on 19 May 1886 in Mecosta Co., MI to John Lounsbury. I can't find a death nor burial place for Francis. Any help greatly appreciated.
