I would like to know if any attempt has to made to make a list of corrections to this book and post them to the libraries that have this book. One correction is that page 294 states Abbie B. Kimball was "born to Col. Nathaniel Kimball and Betsy Chent Kimball." It should read that Abbie's mother was Lucy Hall Brewster. Abbie's middle initial B stood for Brewster. Helen Harrelson did an amazing effort with all the families she touches. Nancy in CA

I don't have a subscription to ancestry.com but, by filling in certain fields of the 1900 census I found a Minnie Perry born abt 1885 and an Arthur Perry born abt. 1894 in Owosso 4th. Ward, Shiawassee Co., Mi. They are listed as stepdaughter and stepson. Could this be your Minnie? I couldn't see the parents names because I don't have access. I can look it up at our church. We have access to ancestry.com. Let me know if you would like me to do that. I won't be able to get to it until next week.

Does anyone have access to the Michigan Marriage index database that can do a lookup for me? I know that Johann Nicolaus Klein (aka John Nicholas Kline) married Louisa Ruess on 5 Mar 1873 in Michigan, but do not know where the marriage took place. I presume it to have been in Shiawassee Co., either Bennington or Owosso, but have no evidence to support my presumption. Al Kline

Below is the Flint Genealogical site -- It is wonderful --If they are buried in the Flint area -they are probably listed -- http://www.rootsweb.com/~mifgs/ Carol in Michigan

Anything on the Hanifan family in Owosso? Thank You! Bill Sullivan SULLIVAN/HANIFAN

There is a lot on Don Ray. To summarize he was b. 24 July 1903 in Owosso and died 29 Dec. 1972. His wife was still living in the home in 1993. They had two children William and Sue. I hesitate to write more about people probably still living. The Mitchell medical Bldg. sits behind the hospital, a gift from the Mitchell Foundation. Nancy

I have corresponded in the past with Donald Ray's widow. She gave me her family's descendancy. She is most likely deceased now as she would be over 100 yrs. old.

I am seeking information on a Minnie PERRY who married Claude MITCHELL 01 Nov 1902 at Corunna, Shiawassee Co., MI. I would like to know her parents' names and what may have become of her. Claude was my grandfather and he married my grandmother Linnie BENNETT on 26 Jul 1910 at Flint. I have both marriage certificates and they give no information for Minnie PERRY other than she was born about 1884. Any information would be greatly appreciated. --------------------------------- Everyone is raving about the all-new Yahoo! Mail beta.

Yep! that is all true. I was born there. Great and Grandparents died there.
