Hi, Is there any Shadbold or Shadbolt in the A to Z book? Thank you? Lynn Najduk Mills

Re : Could you send me a copy of the information listed below ? stfilcek@lighthouse.net Thank you -- Carol In the Owasso A To Z book there are two full pages re. the Turner family. There is a short paragraph about Eveline Ellsworth which I could copy if you haven't seen it. Nancy in CA

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

Found the information on a couple of websites for Owosso, MI History. My Father lived on Pittsburg Rd in Bennington Twp. and finished high school in Owosso. I have been there several times myself. And yes, my grandparents, gr-grandparents, gr-gr-grandparents, and gr-gr-gr-grandparents, along with Great Uncles, etc. are buried in Alton Cemetery and also Byron Cemetery.

The Ojibwa chief referred to as Wasso signed at least four treaties. In the treaty signed at Saginaw in 1819 it reads as Wassau, meaning "far off." In his last treaty signed at Flint River in 1837, his name is translated as "The Bright Light, or light falling on a distant object." His name is spelled Wasso in all but the first treaty. Local folklore recalls the Legend of Owosso: A Chippewa Chief adopted into his tribe a fugitive Sauk (enemies of the Chippewa) brave, Bukadawin who became the husband of the Chief's daughter, Princess Natomo. Soon after, a son was born to the young couple. Chippewa brave Spotted Snake one day drew his bow with poisoned arrow aimed at Bukadawin.

Hi there... I thought I would put Eveline Ellsworth in the search box and see what I come up with. My late husband was descended from the Ellsworth family and I am curious if and how she would be connected to him. This is what I found: _http://www.micourthistory.org/resources/jturner.php_ (http://www.micourthistory.org/resources/jturner.php) JOSIAH TURNER, 20th Justice Served In 1857 Josiah Turner was born on September 1, 1811, in New Haven, Vermont. His mother died when he was a small boy and from that point on, Turner was part of a number of different family configurations since his father remarried a number of times. As a youth he spent his summers working on various farms and winters studying at notable schools in Vermont. Turner read law with his uncle, the Honorable Bates Turner, who was a Supreme Court Justice for the State of Vermont. In 1835, Turner established himself in a law practice, however, in 1840 he relocated with his wife, Eveline Ellsworth, to the growing town of Howell, Michigan. Turner continued practicing law and immediately became involved in politics. In May of 1857, Turner was appointed to the Michigan Supreme Court and was simultaneously elected as judge for the Seventh Judicial Circuit. He never lost an election. His family relocated to Owosso and in 1864, he was elected Mayor of the town. As Mayor, Turner had the duty of informing his townspeople of President Abraham Lincoln's assassination. In addition, Turner was a part of the Constitutional Convention of Michigan in 1867. The last position he held was United States Consul to Amherstburgh, Ontario, Canada. Beyond his public service, Turner had a deep devotion to his religious faith. "In the sixty-one years that I have been a member of the Bar, I have never once been in my office on Sunday to do any work, neither have I at home or elsewhere in all that time done one hour of professional or official work on that day . . . I do not believe that any man is better off on account of any work that he may have performed on Sunday. I never knew a man to gain anything in the end by violating any law, human or divine." Josiah Turner died April 7, 1907. (Turner, Jr., Josiah, "Autobiography,'' Shiawassee County, Michigan, Standard Atlas. Owosso, Michigan, 1895.)

Al, I found this about George D. Post: "George D. Post settled at 3150 McBride Road in Owosso Township. He married on Dec. 8, 1909 Myrtle Bradley daughter of Joseph Bradley. Myrtle died May 4, 1977." Ogden: Helen E. Ogden was b. on Mar. 5, 1897 in Sciota Township to Henry and Mary (Kline) Ogden. She taught in the Owosso schools from 1923 to 1926. She then graduated from the Owosso Memorial Hospital Nurses Training School in 1929 and dedicated her life to that institution. She became the Dir. Of Nurses in 1946. she retired on Aug. 31 1965. Miss Ogden died on May 28, 1975, and is buried in Oakwood Cemetery near Morrice and Perry. She was a devout Methodist and a much loved and respected woman, our own "Florence Nightingale." That is all I can find, Nancy in CA

I didn't make the family tree.... somehow I managed to find the search page and did that

I think the only way is to create a family tree. Go thru all steps 1-4 then you can search whatever you want.

Al, I missed the answers to your questions. Could you help me out? Like you were, I'm in the dark. Jan Al Kline <akline@ocis.net> wrote: There have recently been many messages related to the book "Owosso, A to Z", written by Harrelson. Could someone please explain a bit about the book, hopefully answering some of the following questions. I understand the book contains over 500 pages. What is the content of the book? Is it esentially a city directory with a list of names at one point in time, or is it more of a local history book with stories about the included families? What time frame does it cover? Is it limited to the City of Owosso or does it also cover parts of Shiawassee County outside the city limits? Is the book still in print? I am researching a number of families that resided in the Owosso and Bennington areas of Shiawassee and would like to get a feel for the value of my trying to obtain a copy of the book.
