Looking for information on the family of Francis WAY (b)1795 Vermont, and his wife Susan. They most likely moved to Manchester, Washtenaw County in the 1830s. By 1870, they were living in Ann Arbor. Francis and Susan likely died there - probably in the 1870s or later, though I haven't found cemeteries, or a list of their children. I know they had a daughter Sabrina, born about 1830. Thanks for any information Diane Brigode brigode@ecentral.com

The local paper is the Ann Arbor News. Here's their address: Main office in Ann Arbor 340 E. Huron St. P.O.

I'm looking for the obituary for Isabelle S. Andrews, who died August 1, 1998 in Whitmore Lake, Washtenaw Cty, MI. Can someone do an obit lookup for me, or at least, tell me what newspaper the obit may have appeared in so that I can try to track it down? I really appreciate the help! Amy in Nebraska

Hi! I'm new to this list after tracking down an ancestor to Washtenaw Cty, MI. I'm very excited with my new-found information, and would like to ask for some assistance in finding out more! I'm looking for information on Isabelle S. ANDREWS. According to the SSDI, she died on August 1, 1998 in Whitmore Lake, Washtenaw Cty, MI. I've been looking a long time for Isabelle, so I'm very excited!! I'm hoping that some kind soul will be able to do an obituary look-up for me. I really need to know her husband's name, and the names of any surviving children. I can hardly wait!! I'm willing to pay any and all expenses. Thanks everyone! Amy in Nebraska

Dear Ruth, What time frame are you looking for? I don't know why someone would just say "No". Are looking for the 1800's or the 1900's? There are Armstrongs in the 1870 Census, no Wolowitz's. Do you know first names? To get help you need to provide as much inf. as possible. Have you checked the Dibean Marriage index for Michigan or the 1870 MI Census online?

Jack and Marianne-- Thank you for your prompt response to my query. We already had the John Lyman Turrel/Abbie Gaskill Schuyler maarriage record. My query to you has prompted a followup from Nancy K research chmn of the Washtenaw County Gen Society, which just answered to her. I still believe that Jennie did marry a Glazier; maybe Nancy K will be able to follow up on your suggestions. It may be that your posting of my email address was what prompted Nancy to communicate with me. Thank you again.

Hi, I thought someone might be interested in this piece of history. Daniel Tainter & Polly Godfrey were married on May 29th, 1832 by Judge DeLand, his first marriage in Washtenaw County, MI. Daniel Tainter, Sr was born in 1797 & son of Hannah (Norton) & Benjamin Tainter of Batavia, Genesee County, New York. He died in Jackson County, MI on March 29th, 1846. Polly Godfrey was born March 26th, 1804, to Godfrey's who came to Washtenaw & Jackson County, MI. She remarried after 1850, but was widowed again & she died on Feb. 12th, 1861. I believe she is buried in Fifield Cemetery. They had six children & 3 died in Jackson County, MI, they were: Norton Taintor born Dec. 12, 1845 & died Jan. 03, 1848, in Jackson County, MI. Mary Ann Taintor, born April 10, 1835, died Jan. 30, 1870. Miriam Taintor, born Aug. 4th, 1837, died Jan. 8th, 1865. Daniel Augustus Tainter, their son and whose biography follows was born March 01, 1839, note the article says 1840, but this is incorrect. He lived in Washtenaw & Jackson & Ingham Counties from 1845 to 1871. Biographical History of Northern Michigan Containing Biographies of Prominent Citizens 1905 B. F. Bowen & Company Daniel Tainter Another of the sterling pioneers of Charlevoix county is Daniel Tainter, whose fine farm property is located in Evangeline township, where he has resided for more than thirty years. In 1871 he came to this county & took up a homestead of one hundred and sixty acres two miles northeast of the present village of Boyne City, while he was one of the first veterans of the Civil war to here avail himself of the privilege of taking up such a homestead as a soldier's claim. On this original homestead he has ever since continued to reside, while through his ernest and well-directed efforts he has developed a good farm from the land which was covered with a dense growth of native timber at the time when he here erected his little log domicile and prepared himself to grapple with the wilderness. He has sold sixty acres of his land, so that his homestead now comprises one hundred acres, of which about seventy acres are under effective cultivation, while the permanent improvements are! of excellent order. Mr. Tainter is a native of the old Empire state of the Union, having been born in Erie county, New York, on the 1st of March, 1840. When he was but five years of age his parents came to Michigan and established their home in Jackson county. His father, Daniel Tainter, had previosly visited that county, where he remained for a time, and there he was married to Miss Polly Godfrey, whose parents had likewise come to the locality from Erie County, New York (Batavia). The marriage of Mr. and Mrs. Tainter was solemnized by the late Judge DeLand, of Jackson, this being the first ceremony of the sort performed by him. He was one of the honored pioneers of the county and was the father of Colonel Charles V. DeLand, whose death occurred only a few years since. After his marriage Daniel Tainter returned to Erie county, New York, where he remained until 1845, when he came with his family to Michigan once more, locating three miles northwest of the city of Jackson, where he engaged ! in farming and where he died when our subject was a lad of seven years (1846). His widow was left with six children, and she removed to Tompkins township, in the same county, where about three years later, she married a man named Godfrey, while she there continued to reside until her death, just before the outbreak of the Civil War. Daniel Tainter, the subject of this review, was reared to manhood in Jackson county, this state, where he passed his youthful years on the farm, while he received a common-school education. In 1861 he enlisted in Company C, Second Michigan Volunteer Infantry, with which he continued in active service for three years, at the expiration of which he received his honorable discharge. He was with his command in Virginia for eighteen months, ---up to the time Kearney was killed. His regiment had been part of the Third Corps until this time, and was then transferred to the Ninth Corps, under Burnside, with whose forces the regiment proceeded into Kentucky and thence to Knoxville, Tennesse, participating in numerous skirmishes besides the greater conflicts in which the command was involved. Mr. Tainter was wounded in an egagement at Campbell's Station, where he received a musket ball in the shoulder, being incapacitaited for active service for a time and then rejoining his regim! ent, with which he remained until he was mustered out, having taken part in fifteen battles and having proved himself a loyal and ideal soldier of the republic. After the close of his military career Mr. Tainter returned to Michigan and located in Ingham county, where he continued to be identified with agricultural pursuits until the time of his removal to Charlevoix county, as noted. In politics he is an uncompromising advocate of the principles of the Republican party, and he has held various local offices, being held in a high regard by all who know him. On December 10, 1865, Mr. Tainter was united in marriage to Miss Eliza A. Hull, and of their four children we record that Herbert is in the employ of W. E. White, of Boyne City; Madge Louise is the wife of Melza Brown, of Kalamazoo, this state; Fred N. and Alice remain at the parental home, the latter being a successful teacher in the public schools of the locality.
