That will require either a virtual or personal visit to Ireland and I can't muster the funds at this time. Let me give you some information about John and Jane "Jennie" (Telford) Boyce. I have narrowed down that they came from townland Terrygowan, in the parish of Drummaul, County Antrim, Ireland. That puts them on a 200 - 300 acre section of Ireland. In my book that's pretty darn close. If you have the inclination, time, and money, you can probably get the information you seek. They emigrated from Ireland via the port of Liverpool (not unusual) in two waves. John Senior and son Thomas came first and then mom and the rest of the kids followed. They immigrated to the port of Baltimore in the late 1840s. By 1850 they were enumerated in the Federal Census of that city. About 1855 they migrated to Macon Twp in Lenawee Co., MI. I have made a note of your message and will reply again if I find anything of interest.

Hi Brenda, My Fuller line started with the Mayflower, Edward Fuller, in Plymouth then to Barnstable, then to Conn, then to NorthEast, Duchess Co., NY. the to Windham, Greene Co., NY. That is where the Claflins joined with a marriage, and I drop the Fullers. I do know of one that came to Mich. and it is the line of a friend that has since passed away, but I have her ancestors, from NY to Mich. If you would like that let me know. Wer are connected in Windham, NY. The Claflins started in Wenham, Mass, then to Hopkinton, then Framingham, Mass, then to Columbia Co. near the Duchess Co., line. Then to Windham in Green County, NY then to Licking Co., Ohio. There was a stop in that journey that I haven't settled on yet, then after Ohio to Michigan, Lenawee Co., then Jackson Co., then to Lansing, Ingham Co., MI. A Claflin Aunt from Jackson Co., MI, to my Grandfather, married and settled in East Saginaw, Saginaw Co., MI. Her daughter marriedf Edson Hemmingway Fuller, and he goes back to Samuel Atwood Fuller from NY. I haven't finished the search on that line. I am trying to see if they connect with my original Fullers. If you need specifics let me know as I have most of the data, except the move from Windham to Licking Co., The Fullers are recorded in a book by Elijah Knapp Fuller. He married 6 time being a Morman, so he has documated most of the Fullers. I do not know if it is in print yet, being published abaout 1900, but maybe one of the larger libraries might have it. I just have copies of the pages that concern my family. Happy hunting Betty-Jane [email protected]

Surnames: LYNCH, STEINHOFF Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/mFB.2ACE/2678 Message Board Post: Looking for information on Richard LYNCH and family, as shown in the 1880 Lenawee Co. census, Woodstock Twp. Richard is age 33, with wife Mary 25, and children Lizzie 4, and Lottie 3. Also in household is mother in law Eliza STEINHOFF age 53 and Ella Steinhoff, sister in law. My guess, is that wife Mary has the maiden name of Steinhoff. My Richard Gordon LYNCH was born 1846 in Michigan, and is the son of Nathaniel George LYNCH b1810 and Eleanor STEPHENS, of England. He often is reffered to as "Gordon". I do not know if the above Richard in 1880 Lenawee Co. is mine. My Richard Gordon and family are in Calhoun Co. Michigan in 1850, 1860 and 1870. Thank you for helps and suggestions! I appreciate any info on the Lynch family in Lenawee Co. I was not able to find Richard and Mary in 1900. Tami

Thank you for the offer to check Riverside. This may be of some help also. My continued research has revealed the following. Their son Samuel is listed as owning property in Sect.11 and it is purported that Jane was living there before her death. It may be that Samuel took over daddy's farm located just north of Pennington Rd. on Billmyer Hwy. Here's a map of the above location. http://www.topozone.com/map.asp?z=17&n=4659813&e=259324&s=50&size=l&u=5&datum=nad83&layer=DRG25 John and Jane's eldest son Thomas owned land in Macon Twp Sect.18 and Sect. 19 with their home located where the Tecumseh Products Co. is/was. That would be just a half mile from Aten Cemetery. Thanks again for your assistance and any that others may contribute. --Joe NW North Carolina
