Did you receive the copy of marriage rec I sent you? This was one of Martin Dowley and Sarah Burke in which your Thomas and Hattie were witnesses. From the 1894 census, I found that Eugene Wilson wss married to Nellie Conaty, daug of James and Mary. and that Charles Wilson was married to Katie B. Hatton, daughter of William H. and Elizabeth. I thought that I had mailed you copies of this census. If I have not, I will be happy to do so. You may also want to check this out.. Helen Augusta Eddy had a brother, William Riley Eddy, who married Mary Minerva Pilkinton 23 Jun 1871 in Ionia County. Their mother, Martha Reed Eddy married William Towner in 1855. They are on the 1870 census in Danby Twp. Ionia county. Perhaps you can track some family from this group. Their "original" county in Michigan was Clinton county. William Wilson and Ellen Augusta Eddy were married there in 1862. The county is rich with the Eddy name. You may want to post on that website and check out their county site on USGenWeb.and GenForum. I believe that Martha Reed Eddy may have been the daughter of John and Polly Reed. .Martha had 2 brothers: John C. and Nathan. This is just my best guess and further research is needed.
