Cathy, Indeed. I have all the Provos but hadn't done marriagess of Susan's siblings. But, it was easy to find. They (Petrus and Johanna) emigrated in 1854 from Cadzand and settled in Williamson. They had two children, Jacob and Elizabeth. My guess is that Ed was the son of Jacob. The De Die and Carlier farms adjoined in the census. Ed used to come to Christmas dinners at the extended Carlier (Collier) family celebrations. I remember him at Everett and Mary Colliers in the 50's. Cathy, if you have more on Susan's siblings, I'd love to have it. Another mystery, my mother always said we had De Lyser cousins who moved to Sheboygan, WI. Maybe they had Provo connections as well. Thanks so much for solving this little mystery. IF anyone has ready access to census for NY for after the 1870, perhaps we could find the birth of Ed and prove his parentage.

I don't have any info on an Ed De Die as yet, but can only surmise at this point that he may be a direct descendant of Petrus and Johanna, if they are related to the CARLIERs.

I believe he lived on Parcells Ave in Rochester. My mother said they were relatives, but, as the family genealogist, I've never seen any family connection to the De Die family. If you have information on the family, perhaps some connection can be made.
