    3. Am attempting to locate pertinent details on my maternal grandmother's family in Brown County, South Dakota. Sybrant Fort Brott and Francelia Louise Roblee, both native New Yorkers, had four daughters, all born in New York. They moved to South Dakota after 1880. The four daughters were: 1. Belle Brott, b. 1865, married William Benson (presumably in South Dakota) 2. Blanche Brott, b. 1871, possibly married, and had a daughter Ethel, unknown last name. 3. Carrie Adelia Brott, b. May 13, 1875 in Quake Springs, Saratoga Co., New York, m. Jacob Henry Detling, June 21, 1905 in Groton, Brown Co., South Dakota; d. October 25, 1954, in Orland, Glenn Co., California. (This is my grandmother). 4. Jessie Brott, b. 1878, m. Tom Troy, and had a son, Maurice. I have an undated picture of the Brott family gravesite in Groton, and presumably Sybrant and Francelia are buried there, although I don't know this for a fact. My family research to date on Sybrant's and Francelia's ancestral lines is nearly complete, but I am attempting to trace descendents of my grandmother's three sisters. In the hopes of widening my search, I am sending this message to multiple Rootsweb mailing lists. Reply to any list, or to me at doug.detling@greencity.org. Many thanks in advance for any help I receive.
