I am just beginning work on the family of my great-grandmother, O'tillia FETE. She was born in Switzerland on 6 June, 1860. Family information indicates that she came to West Virginia in about 1866. Her parents, Nestor and Pauline Fete (and siblings?) died in West Virginia soon after and O'tillia lived with the family of a Lutheran pastor there. Her parents apparently did not live in WV long enough to be included in the 1870 census. It has been very difficult to find traces of O'tillia until 1885 when she married Peter BEACH and lived in Crestline, OH. Swiss Family Surnames tells me the FETE name is from Canton Bern. Does anyone have any further information on the FETE name. Thanks.
