Surnames: Sumner, Duso Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/2AC.2ACI/1581.1 Message Board Post: I am also seeking information on my Sumner ancestors. My ggg grandfather was Willard Sumner. His wife (I believe the thrid one) was Mary Duso. Their daughter was Philena Sumner. I have found Willard's death record, and it says that his father or mother's name was Asenath - it is not clear which, and only lists one. Incidentally, the death record indicated he 'shot himself.' I know nothing more about this man, other than he was from the Widham/Bennington County areas of VT. Any connections? Amanda
