Charlie Colopy and May Mickley Colopy were my grandparents. My mother was their 4th child, 3rd daughter, Mary Pauline. Both of them, Charles and May were born in Danville...the Mickleys came to Danville around 1880 or so, the Colopys had been there for a very long time. Did you live next door to Aunt Theresa on Portage or when they lived in the little house on the curve? Theresa died just 2 years ago. It has only been a couple of months since we had our first every reunion of Charles and May's descendents. I live near Chicago and have for the last 38 years but I wouldn't have missed it for anything. In the end there were about 60 people, approximately 18 of my 50 or so first cousins. Two of my Aunts are still with us. Betty and Joanne, all the others are gone. I would love to see the picture that you have. Isn't the internet and email wonderful, imagine a connection like this cropping up without this way to communicate. Tell me please what your name is and I will tell my Burger cousins, Judy and Barbara and Tom that you and I have met. Judy lives in Canal Fulton as does Tom. Barbara lives on Manchester Road, it seems like that is North Lawrence. My husband was born and raised in Massillon and he has lots of family in that area too. Have you ever visited Danville? There are lots of Colopys and Mickleys still in Knox County. In fact a visit to the cemetery at St. Luke's is quite the experience. I can feel my ancestors everywhere. I would be very happy to see the picture you have. Did you know that my grandmother May and her sister Delila married the same day, they had a double wedding. thanks, by the way my name is Cheryl Gravereau Quinn Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
