Posted on: Ottawa Co., Michigan Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Mi/Ottawa/870 Surname: McDermand, MacDermand, Williams, Smith, Lester ------------------------- I am looking for information about the descendants of Edward Jerome McDermand (a.k.a. MacDermand) born 4 March 1865 and died in Zeeland, Ottawa County on 18 October 1938. He was a very well known Photographer in the County and operated a studio which I understand was eventually taken over by Nicholas DeVries. He was married to Ethel Pearl Williams born 23 November 1869 in Sturgis, MI and she died 18 Janurary 1941 also in Zeeland, Ottawa County. Edward and Ethel had two children living at the time of his death, a son E. Vern McDermand (MacDermand?) who was living in Cleveland, Ohio and a daughter Mrs. Florence Wilson of Montvale, New Jersey. Edward also was survived by two sisters Mrs. Jennie E Smith of San Francisco, CA and Mrs. Maude Lester of Grande Rapids, MI Any help with information or reaching living family members would be appreciated. I have lots of family tree information to share.
