This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: BEER Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/2FB.2ACI/1864.1.2 Message Board Post: Dear Cousin Terra: I am just a bit confused as you replied to two different posts I made but if I put the two of them together, I thin you are saying your William Beer was the son of Richard Beer fromm Painsdale, MI. The Richard Beer from Painsdale, MI not only fits my line, it IS my line! Richard is a cousin to my direct line and I have found others from the Richard Beer line you speak of. I have headstone photos of this line from both Houghton and Detroit cemeteries that will obviously interest you. My immediate direct Beer line is from Ishpeming and my mother was born Ishpeming but moved to Detroit in 1942. Would LOVE to talk with you further on your Beer connection. A few months ago I spent 5 weeks in England and have BEER info on this line. I am out of town at the moment so do not have my notes with me. Will be home (in Michigan) on Friday. If possible, could you e-mail me your tree for review and I can likely fill in gaps in both our trees. Please contact me directly at: jpwilli@twmi.rr.com Very much looking forward to hearing from you. Julie Williamson
