I did a Google search for Hudson Motor Car Company and there were a lot of hits. Hudson went out of business in the 1950's but there are a lot of people still in love with the cars they made. The first site had this message: http://groups.msn.com/HudsonMotorCarCompany/_homepage.msnw?pgmarket=en-us Welcome to the Hudson Family Photo Album - a web site dedicated to the fine cars built by the Hudson Motor Car Company. Our aim is to show you factory and other photos from the extensive Carl Weber Collection, members cars and pictures from other sources. We encourage viewers who have Hudson, Essex or Terraplane photos of any type to send them to us for this web site. We hope you will enjoy browsing thru our little effort and visit some of the links we are working on - such as a site for Hudson technical info featuring manufacturers numbers for electrical and fuel system equipment (from our Hudson, Essex, Terraplane General Specifications Handbook - we have these for sale - email us at hesternec@yahoo.com for details.) and, at the moment, a general information site featuring Hudson general info. This site may be found under Hudson Technical Information. Hope this will be helpful.

Mary Rohse, b 9/24/1890 believed to have died 5/1980 in Fowlerville, Livingston, MI, according to Social Security Death Index. Name at death, Mary Sinjen. She married August Sinjen in Iowa, 12/15/1915 and had two sons, Harvey and Arthur. I believe she may have lived with one of them at her time of death. I would appreciate it if someone could do a search for her and Harvey or Arthur. I know that they lived in Davenport, IA for the 1930 census. Thanks for whatever help you can provide. JW Kopp

Hello Everyone: Those of you who are working on your lines back to your 1600s American Ancestors will find the1600s Ancestors Data Base to be of great help. My recent postings to the Data Base has taken it to over 26,500 Ancestors who have descendants living today. I have also added several National Societies who have proven many of these Ancestors. Also at this time a few new respected Reference works that contain thousands of sources including some of the early colonists who have Royal Blood lines. All the entries are coded to indicate to which reference work or which National Society has at least one of their proven lines. Several of the National Societies have over 20 different lines from a single Ancestor. When you enter the 1600s Ancestor Data Base be sure to look at the top of each data page for the link that takes you to the "Data Base Information Page" Here you will find the codes and references listed and how to use them. This is must reading to understand the Data Base. We are constantly updating the Data Base with additional Ancestors added as time permits. You will find the 1600s Ancestor Data Base at: http://www.firstfamilies.org/db/ Everyone has FREE access to all our web site and the reports contained there. Enjoy and Happy Hunting Ryan Jackson Data Base Manager America's First Families

Hi All, Wow didn't realize there were so many Sand Lakes! What a lesson. The Sand Lake I am most familiar with is the one that straddles Kent County (Nelson Twp.) and Montcalm Co. (Pierson Twp.) The majority of the city is in Kent Co., but many of the outlying areas with a Sand Lake phone and address are in Montcalm Co. Regards, Kim Pennock

There is also a Sand Lake in Kent County, as it is about 25 miles south of where I live. Jan ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lorelei F.

Hi all I am new to the list and would like to find out some more information about the one ancestor of mine that emigrated to the USA from England. He was my g grandfather's brother. Name : Kirby BAILEY Born : 1865 in Brigstock, Northamptonshire, England 1881 Census England: Second Footman to Major General G.W.A. HIGGINSON, Hannover Square London 1885 : Arrived in the USA (based on 1900 US census - in US 15 years) 1890/1 : location unknown 1900 : Living in Marquette, Michigan, Married to Lizzie ? who was born in Ireland. He was transcribed as age 40. (ink blot on original however) 1905 : Acquires 160 acres of homestead 1907 or 1909 naturalised (date unclear) 1910 : Still in Marquette. Age 45. Wife Elizabeth. 1920 : Same address in Marquette (911 or 919? 4th Street)Age 45 (!!) I don't know what happened to him after 1920. From the censuses he doesn't appear to have any children. I haven't got access to the 1930 census. the other details came via a limited trial at a US library online. As his name is so unusual I wonder if anyone could please find out anymore. He is not connected to another Kirby BAILEY that I found existed in Mississippi. Apologies, but I have not had to research in the USA before, only the UK. Many thanks Sarah Spink West Berkshire England
