Does anyone on this list have access to obituaries? I'm looking for obits for Attica residents: Harold HOLM, died 5 Aug 1995 in Bloomville Velma G HOLM, died 20 June 1998 in Fremont, Sandusky Co, OH Thanks for your help. Warmly, Daniel Powers

Greetings from New Mexico, I'm beginning research on the HOLM family of Attica. Harold HOLM was born 28 Feb 1901, died 5 Aug 1995; his siblings included Raymond, Vinton, Perry, Ward, Winfred, Ruth and Rachel. His parents were John HOLM and Bernice KENTFIELD. I don't know whether Harold was born in Seneca Co or whether his family of origin lived in Seneca County. Family lore has John and Bernice running a grocery store in Omar, Reed Twp, Seneca Co. Bernice Kentfield was from Crawford, Wyandot Co. Any help with these lines would be helpful. Thanks, Daniel Powers

Hi Sue, My husband's ancestor who I was referring to was Edward C. Marble, Sr. In the 1850 Lockport, Niagara Co., NY Census, he is listed as a weaver. In the 1860 Mexico, Tymochtee Twp, Wyandot Co., OH Census, he's listed as a laborer. I have not found him in 1870, although his wife and family are in Carey, Wyandot Co., OH in that census year. I have been told by another researcher that he moved to Berrien Co., MI and died there. Thanks for the interesting information. I would love to know if any of Edward Marble's weaving survived or was ever documented. This was my husband's 3rd great-grandfather.

(Redirected by "DC & Alice Allen" <dcaallen@pacifier.com>) A reply from Sue: *********** BEGIN REDIRECTED MESSAGE *********** Hi Pam, I'm an antique dealer as well. From my own knowledges perhaps she is right in some circumstances but more often than not the name on the coverlet is indeed the weaver. His advertisement perhaps. There is a book on coverlet makers of which I need to find sometime listing the names of the coverlet makers and most did put their name on their coverlet. I have had alot of good emails narrowing down to this person. We have found a John Heater ( misspelled but that was common in those days as the name could have been interchangeable ) Scipio township, Seneca cty. in the 1850 census and yes he too is listed as Farmer and Weaver which is significant because it was an art not practiced by just anyone and the looms used were rather large you had to have the right place for one to be an avid weaver. Married to an Elizabeth with 9 children. Is he the relative you are talking about? I'm delving even further as another man emailed me and may be related and he is checking to see if this man is the same. He said the name Heeter was German for Huther and thereby was changed alot coming to this country to Heater, Heeter, and others. It was common to have the same person referred to by different names until the main one "stuck" so to speak.
