In reference to Gina's message, I too have relatives which migrated from Canada to Jefferson County to Michigan. Unlike Gina's, my relatives stayed in Jefferson County and then went on to Michigan. From reading the mailing list, I have noted alot of Jeff County people moved to Michigan about the same time. Does any one know why? Perhaps we have a migration specialist out there, who can answer Gina's Canadian migration question and my Michigan migration question.
