Surnames: Gahen, Walsh, Connell, Cunningham Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/XEC.2ACE/930.2 Message Board Post: I have just been flooded with new information this evening when I discovered that my William Walsh's sister Mary married James Gahen abt 1836 in New Brunswick, Canada. William married Anne Connell also in NB along with another sibling Margaret Walsh marrying Peter Cunningham. Margaret's daughter Belle Cunningham is found living with Mary and James Gahen in Springville, Adams, WI in the 1860 census. Living next to James and Mary Gahen in Springville is Benjamin and Hanorah Gahen. Other related family surnames that moved to WI were Connell, Walsh, and Cunningham, I must say I am alittle overwhelmed and need to sort this all out, but am eager to hear from anyone researching these families.

With regard to Martin Kleven and Helen Hilleboe, they bought her parents land when they died around the turn of the century. Do you know how long they lived on the old farmstead? I believe the property now belongs to Wisconsin Power Co.

Surnames: Crothers/Crowthers/Crawthers Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/XEC.2ACE/1647.1.1 Message Board Post: Mel, Thank you for your post which I found very interesting. I really do not have any more information than in my original query. Most of the information I have is from Marlene Simmons who has copies of various records. From them I BELIEVE George Crawthers died Sept. 25, 1860 in the Parish of St. George de Clarenceville. I also believe that their children included Andrew Lytle, George Alexander, Margaret Curry and Nancy. George Crawthers also appears in the Canadian Immigrant Records, in 1830. He was living in Seigniory of Noyan. Like I mentioned, I am not sure if this is the correct George or not because there were other Georges in the area. But Marlene Simmons believes it is. Thank you!

Surnames: Bakazan, Keller Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/XEC.2ACE/1649 Message Board Post: This article, I believe, was in the Adams Times in 1938. At least this is the best information I had. I am looking for anyone knowing of the brother and 2 sisters mentioned in article. Mrs. Bakazan Killed in Highway Accident A highway accident which ended with a family containing a group of children being bereft of a mother happened just south of the A-F high school on Highway 13 shortly after seven o'clock Monday evening. The accident happened so quickly and so many conflicting stories are told as to how it happened that a coronor's inquest will be called the first of next week to determine the blame. It is alleged that Mrs. Bakazan was attempting to hurry across the highway leading her small grandson by her right hand. Lee Dye who drove the car which apparntly struck her was unable to see the woman until she ran right ahead of his car. In the impact she was thrown to the pavement and died almost instantly from a blow on the forehead. The grandson who was on the side away from the car was not hurt. The crossing is a bad one along there. To a driver it looks like a country road but those who live on the west side of the road all have to cross the road before they can get to a side walk. So there is much danger of accidents. Several near accidents have been reported and one woman was killed there a few years ago. Elizabeth (Keller) Bakazan was bown in Hungrary on May 1, 1887. She is survived by seven children, Mrs. Teresa Vogt, Anthohny, Nicholas, Elizabeth, John, Edeard and Pauline besides her husband, one brother and two sisters. Funeral services wil be held Friday morning, Sept. 30. End Again, any info of her brother or 2 sisters would be enormously appreciated. Thankyou Bob

This is just word of mouth, but I hope someone can help me. My Aunt, told my mom that there is a newspaper story about my godmother / Great-aunt Dorothy Ann Grell Raczkowski in the Adams Friendship newspaper. It maybe called "Cold case files." Its about her murder. This story maybe about a week old. Is there a web page for the Adams Friendship newspaper online so I can look it up myself? Or can someone email me a copy / transcript of the story? Jelayne http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/u/n/d/Jelayne-D-Underwood-WI/WEBSITE-0001/UHP-0089.html
