First time on this list, so posting research interests specific to it: Searching for ancestors (and living descendants) of JOHN and CATHERINE (MCARTHUR) CARMICHAEL, and DOUGLAS and MARY (MCBRIDE) MCARTHUR. JOHN CARMICHAEL was born Feb 6 1834 in Dumfries, Dumfriesshire, Scotland; immigrated to America in 1849 or 1850; married CATHERINE MCARTHUR Oct 9 1866 in Flint, Genesee County, Michigan; died 1921 near Burrton, Harvey County, Kansas; buried in Valley Township Cemetery, Reno County, Kansas. CATHERINE MCARTHUR was born Sep 9 1844 in Greenock, Renfrewshire, Scotland; immigrated in 1849 or 1850 with family; died Nov 6 1912 near Burrton, Harvey County, Kansas; buried in Valley Township Cemetery, Reno County, Kansas; her parents were DOUGLAS and MARY (MCBRIDE) MCARTHUR; DOUGLAS was born about 1822, probably in Scotland and MARY was born about 1824, probably in Scotland. The CARMICHAEL and MCARTHUR families alledgedly immigrated on the same ship (name of ship, ports, dates are all unknown); don't know if they came to Canada or USA first! , although it would seem Canada. JOHN CARMICHAEL alledgedly worked the docks around the Great Lakes, specifically Lake Michigan, assuming Ontario and Michigan sides. We do happen to know that JOHN and CATHERINE were married by a LEVI WALKER, Justice of the Peace when they married in Flint; have not been able to locate documentation for their marriage. Unable to find ancestor information any further back, or information from their time in Canada or Michigan. Would appreciate hearing from anyone with ties to this family. This is my husband's side of the family and our main brick wall. Thank you.

I am helping someone with the Taylor name, can you give me some dates, so I know what time frame you are in. Taylor is a very common name as you well know.

I need to change my E-mail address, could someone forward me the information on how to do this? Also, I have been reading group posts for almost 2 years now, but have not found the links I need to respond. I am looking for the links to my family with nothing to go on. My grandfather and grandmother are Norman G. Taylor, and Mary E. Taylor. From Genesee county, city of Flint. The children were, Robert (my father), Tom, Chuck, Betty, Vivian, Mary, & Linda. I have nothing prior to my grandparents. I don't know if they were born in Flint or not. If anyone knows any information about them, I would greatly appreciate it. God Bless , Diana (Taylor) Chavis Tao ch'ang we wei (The Way is always still) I pray that I may have a sense of the eternal value of the work I do. I pray that I may work not only for today but also for eternity ----- Original Message ----- From: MIGENESE-D-request@rootsweb.com To: MIGENESE-D@rootsweb.com Sent: Tuesday, May 07, 2002 5:03 AM Subject: MIGENESE-D Digest V02 #59 --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Dear List Members: A relative recently found an old family bible related to our Warner clan. Here's some information from inside. We know our Warners were from Michigan and New York, so I'm posting it to every board associated with our Warner research. "A Charity Everts Russell was born to William Russell and Eleanor Dutcher on September 11, 1829. She married L. Edward Warner on August 11, 1854. She died in 1895. One daughter was listed as Anna Stimson married to Dr. Pearce Page." If anyone else's research is coincidental to these names I'd appreciate hearing from you. I'll gladly share whatever I have if it will help you. Sincerely, Kevin O'Brien Laguna Hills, CA Researching: Perkins, Warner                    Shannon, Lowe                    Gillie, des Riviere,                    Sundell, Dorchester                    Adams, Pinkerton                    Van Schaick                   [Chancy Smith & Fam.                   Jefferson County, NY]                   Saginaw County, MI                   Genesee County, MI                   Gratiot County, MI                   Midland County, MI                  Ottawa, Canada                  Grenville, Quebec CN
