Did a quick index search and found nothing. If you have more to add (alternate spellings, more dates and relatives, etc) I would be very happy to look for you. RC

I just wanted to know if there was any Bingelman/Bingleman in Detroit Michigan back in the mid 1800's, they were my ancestor's. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Andrew Bingelman Sr. was my great-gr-gr-gr-gr-grandfather him and his wife and their children came to the states in or around 1830 from Ulm Wuttenberg, Germany. Thanks! Deb

Hi researchers, If you have never visited a Family History Center you might like to take a tour of the FHC in Bloomfield Hills, MI. I think most of it makes sense without a commentary. I think the directors Margaret and Fred Miesterfeld have done a terrific job at the library. http://mipolonia.net/fhc I volunteer on Thursday afternoons.

Dear All, I am trying to fill in some of the gaps on my family tree and would love to hear from anyone who knows of family links in the Okehampton area especially INWARDLEIGH & NORTHLEW. I am researching the SPEARE family and branches of it linked to the Okehampton area of Devon. I have set up a website for the Speare family at http://www.speare.info. And another website at http://www.devonroots.org.uk Some of the surnames linked to my family are. BOND, CARPENTER, CROCKER, DUSTAN, DYER, FINNIMORE, FRIEND, HESMAN, HOOPER, KING, LACEY, MORCOMBE, NEWCOMBE, PIERCEY, RICH, STANLAKE, SPREY, VANSTONE, WARD, WEEKES, YEO, YOULDON If you think you could be connected please get in touch. Best wishes Thomas Peeke -- Thomas Peeke

This is the best (and only) match I could find: 04 June 1900 Huron Twp, Wayne County MI DAVIS, Frank, Aug 1865, b. MI, parents: NY Jane, wife, June 1869, b. MI, parents from MI Adella, dau, Dec 1886 MI Ada, dau, Aug 1889 MI Frank, son, Aug 1889 MI Elva, dau, Nov? 1895?, 5 yo MI Marjory? Oct 1896, 3 yo MI Leena? Nov? (looks like same month as for Elva) 1897, 2 yo MI Edna Johnson (62) as servant also Is this the family? I would appreciate knowing? I need the feedback to know if I am searching correctly. (Do you what a pain it is searching for such commonly-used names? -- WOW! but that's what I do.) RC

Could someone look for a Frank G. Davis born 1891 on the 1900 census for me? Around Detroit (Wayne County) and Pontiac (Oakland County), MI. Thanks ever so much, Allison

Hi, Another way to spell this surname: Tetreault / Tetreau Good Luck

No luck in 1850 NY which I thought would be great but 1870 was truly great. No index for 1860 - dont even want to try it right now. Arbela, Tuscola Co, MI, 05 June 1870 TATROW, Francis, 36, shoemaker, b. NY Elizabeth, 27, b. NY Francis S., 9, b. NY Mary E., 7, b. NY Frederick A., 6, b. NY Edwin (N?), 3, b. MI Hiram J., 11/12, b. MI Totally elusive in 1880. Big possibility from 1900: Tuscola Co, Indian Fields Twp, Caro Village, 22 June 1900: TETROW, Frank, b. Feb 1833, 67, b. NY, father: France, mother: NY, NOTE: married 1 year Jane? Janet? can only make out Ja__, wife, b. March 1839, 61, mother of 11 children, 4 living, b. Canada (emmigrated 1840), father: England, mother: England Names not totally readable because someone wrote numbers over the names -- I have seen that TOO MUCH (I would really like to go back in history and slap around whoever did that). Anyway . . . next name under Frank is TETROW, Samuel, b. March 1861, 39, b. NY, parents: NY, married 11 years Hanah, wife, b. Nov(?) 1873, b. MI, father: OH, mother: MI Blanch E., dau, b. Aug 1898, MI Samuel may be the Francis S. shown in 1870 -- the date is right. This seems like a good start on this family to me. Let me know if you need more help.

I am new to this list. I just want to post a general message about the above name. I am interested in talking to any one that may have any knowledge about a BILL MARSHALL who may have been born in MICHIGAN maybe about the 1870's. He could have come to the SUDBURY/NORTH BAY AREA OF ONTARIO about 1895. He may have been in some trouble with the law in Michigan. We have heard a story that the US authorities came to Canada & took him back sometime between 1910-1920.He may have returned to Canada & died here, we don't know. Regards Jim

My great grandparents emigrated from the Orkney Islands in Scotland to Sterling, Michigan in the 1880s. Since immigrants frequently went to locations where their friends or relatives had emigrated, I am interested in making contact from others whose ancestors came from Orkney to Michigan. I would like to learn what other families might know about their ancestors' immigration. My Great Grandparents were James Firth and Jane Harray Firth. James' sisters also emigrated to Michigan. They were Isabella Firth Norn (who came in about 1872 when she married James Norn) and Whillamina Firth Wishart who came in about 1878 after living in Canada for about 8 years). If your ancestors emigrated from the Orkney Islands to Michigan, drop me a line with details, such as when them emigrated, why, names, etc. Sincerely, Liz Hessel
