Hi Janis or anyone who could help, Janis, since I get "Digest" you have already made a trip to the library. Nevertheless, if anyone can help on an obit search, I'd be grateful. William Sawyer, husband of Caroline Chapman Sawyer died February 8, 1868 He was buried on his parents' plot in Trinity Cemetery, Lyme, Huron Co. In 1860 the family was living in Townsend Township, Sandusky County, probably on the border of Erie County; in 1870, Caroline was in Groton, Erie County, so don't know if the family had moved there before William's death or not. However, during the 1860 - to Wm's death, a son accidentally drowned in a pond in Groton, so the family may already have been there. Researchers at Hayes could not find anything nor others in Huron County. There seems to be no official death report but I am told since this was required only shortly before his death, there were many omissions. Both the Sawyer and Chapman families were well-known so cannot understand why mention of William's death is not somewhere. I have various other related information about William and his wife. Thank you. Gloria Ishida Japan
