    1. [MIKENT] Stonehouse Family
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Davenport, Stonehouse, Toms, Brown Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.michigan.counties.kent/8168/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Several members of the Stonehouse family are buried in the Greenwood Cemetery according to the records I found on USGenWeb. The records only have the year of death, but I wondered if anyone has any further information on this family. The mother, Keziah Davenport Stonehouse, died in 1881; the father, John Stonehouse, died in 1883. I am interested in obtaining obituaries. [email protected] Also, I noticed that three of their children died in 1880 (Belle, Clyde, and Mayme) and John, Jr. in 1882. Was there an epidemic? I'm also looking for the burial place of Keziah's parents, Marian/Maria (nee unknown) (died 8 Oct 1873) and John Davenport (died 1860). I also couldn't find the burial place of Keziah's brother Jonathan, who died after 1880, and his wives, Elizabeth, who died before 1860, and Cordelia Dutton Davenport, who died November 1882. Nor, her sister Hannah Elizabeth who married Oscar Toms (Hannah and Oscar were cousins). I believe Hannah died before 1870, bu! t I don't know when Oscar died. Her youngest sister, Mary Jane Davenport (died 1914) and husband William Brown (died 1915) (Mary Jane and William were cousins) are buried in the Englishville Cemetery, Alpine Township. Other siblings are buried in the Pine Grove Cemetery, Alpine Township. Any help on this Davenport family of Kent County would be appreciated.
