That is really a lot of research. My name is Marilyn Becker Wiegand. I am in hopes of finding a MINNIE SACKETT (with variable spellings for MInnie). She married a Seneca Indian by the name of ELY SAMUEL PARKER. Ely was born in Genesse Co., New York (1828-1895), somewhere around Aurora, NY. He married Minnie Sackett in 1867. When Ely died he was living in Fairfield, Connecticut. Thanks to all, Marilyn, mwgenie@strato.net
