Judy, Thanks for the info. The church would be the Wakeman Congregational and the majority of individuals you list are my relatives. Of those listed, I only remember Myron Shelton, who (without looking up), I believe lived until the 1960's.

Hi All, I have cleared away some pressing duties recently and will be getting on with the Church project. Both Becky Williams and I are working on this. If anyone has any information on ANY Huron County church, such as what Mary McG sent in, PLEASE be willing to share. It will make the church project just that much more interesting. Thanks Mary, I got your pictures from Mike, BTW, and will be getting those on-line soon. PS. Ken has sent both Greenfield and Fairfield Township plat maps to me. I have the Greenfield on-line and will be getting Fairfield Township on later this afternoon.
