    1. Re: [MIJackson] look ups please for Amanda and James Dewey family of Spring A...
    2. Hi, I did some quick checking around and have this; Amanda Gary married James Armstrong Dewey on 24 Oct 1849 in Spring Arbor, Jackson County Michigan. His Parents were; Timothy Dewey and Sally Flint, according to the LDS Amanda and James's children were; Carmi Dewey born 1850 in Spring Arbor, Jackson, Michigan and died in 1857. (Female) Phineas James Dewey born Jan 3, 1854 also in Spring Arbor Wilbur John Dewey born Mar 10, 1856, Spring Arbor Phineas married Julia Wolcot in 1875 in Spring Arbor Wilbur married Lura D. Wells on 8 Oct 1882 In the 1860 Census in Jackson Michigan James Dewey age 35 born in New York, Farmer Amanda age 35 born also in New York Phineas age 6 Wilbur age 4 also listed with them are; Dewey, John age 66? SAlly age 55 Clark age 21 They are listed also with the last name of Dewey, So I think they are his family and not her's ? John was also listed as blind. Also in the LDS are possible sisters of Amanda, married in the same town Phebe C. Gary married Charles Wing on Sept 21, 1841 and Lavonia Gary married Nathan C. Murray on July 4, 1849 I saw on LDS where James Armstrong Dewey last name was also listed as "Davy" I will check around more later and see what I can find. Cathy Obeshaw catobeshaw@aol.com
