Thank you! My family put the information in the Dehmel room they don't have any information other than what we gave them. If they do have it they won't share it with us.

Hi Everyone And you will find that to be true...and i think it has to do with what people would think...and you know what it doesn't matter anymore...it was years ago.. to keep it short and if you want the whole story...i'll share....it's funny to me now..... i started genealogy in the late 60's..and hit a brick wall (get use to that) and it happened that my grandfather was here for a visit from Washington...so who better to ask a question about his father then him...and i did.... first let me tell you this...I'm 66....and back when i was a kid, if you back talked or sassed your parents you could get backhanded...and then the joke was...you could wipe your butt off the wall behind you.......... ok..so I asked my grandfather a question..and to this day I can't even remember the question, but i felt like i had just sassed my grndfat...cause i felt from his breath when he opened his mouth, that i wiped my butt off the wall..and that was then end of that. he passed in 75 and in the 80's i learned that his father went for a qt of milk one sunday aft noon and didn't return for 7yrs...then in the late 90's i received papers where he married a woman and had three children...and she then died shortly after the last one in 1880...well my grndfat was born in 1883...so then we asked as was told by a cousin that he went to look for work... Well going to look for work away from home in those yrs were common, but i don't see the point of the marriage to another when you have one wife and three kids...that was all in Canada,.....and according to Michigan census, they all came over in 1886...but I can't find where or when they div...but i find she married in 1888....but can't find her death...and i find that he died in Bay City in 1907, and wife was Marie, but can't find their marriage license. So you see....you will find bits and parts of family info...but can have trouble finding all the answers.... And to me it is not a matter of disgrace, cause that was all yrs ago and most involved are dead... But have fun in the genealogy world....i thought i was crazy before....HaHa.... patiann rhyndress in michigan.............. rhyndress (spell many ways) backhouse (spell many ways) best, houghtaling, wedge, tibbets/tibbits, hudson England..........Canada.......... related to the Vanderbilts that built the Biltmore in NC and related to John Jacob Astor from the Titanic that owned Hotel Astor in NY [email protected] wrote: Thank you!
