The information about Alice being part Indian has been told to me as well. The only difference is that I was told she was born in Beacon Falls, Ct. It's a small town next to Naugatuck and friends of mine from Beacon Falls have said they remember the Hotchkiss family and confirmed that they had Indian ancestory. That's all I know. I'm happy to hear about a name for the tribe Alice was descended from. Until now I had no information that confirmed that. I'll be at [email protected] until into January if you care to pass on any other info. Some family members have traced the Wedge name back toi the Puritans arrival in 1630! I had no idea. Thanks for the information. Judy Mazzadra

I lived in St Mathias Township about 2 miles from St Mathias Church for over 25 years. There is a very nice Catholic church with an adjoining cemetery in St Mathias. If the obituaries said they were buried in St Mathias it could be there. If they were not catholic then there could be other cemeteries. If you contact the Crow Wing County Historical Society, they have a web site, they have a book with all of the cemeteries in Crow Wing County and transcriptions of the headstones. It was done in about 1979. If you need anything else let me know.
