I know there are lots of Getman descendants who watch this list, and I'm hoping one of you can help me out. I've been looking up the descendants of the children of Johannes Van Antwerp and Rachel Van Alen (I'm descended from their daughter Rachel), and their daughter Maritje married Benjamin Getman about 1815. One of their children was Crawford Getman (1834-1917), who moved to Oswego Co. and entered the glass business. He left quite a bit of money in his will to relatives, primarily nieces and nephews since he never married. A newspaper announcement in late 1917 said that a great-nephew Myron Shults of Richfield Springs and a great-niece Mamie Gallaver of Chicago were left out because Crawford didn't know of their existence. I take Myron Shults to be William Myron, the son of Mary Williamson and Hiram Shults, but who in heaven's name is Mamie Gallaver!? Mamie is mentioned again in a 1918 story with her last name spelled Galloer or something like that - she and Myron had both been added to the list of legatees. In 1940, the last listing I could find, Myron was dead and I see no mention of Mamie. Obviously I don't have a marriage of one of Crawford's descendants. Does anyone know who this Mamie could be? Can't find her in 1910 or 1920. Thanks. Joanne Gaudio
