Posted on: GreenLake Co. Wi Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Wi/GreenLake/374 Surname: Jordan, McNely, Howe ------------------------- I am looking for information concerning RUTH JORDAN McNELY who was living in Berlin, Green Lake Co. Wisconsin in 1922 and a JORDAN family whom I think may have homesteaded in Green Lake county I have a copy of a letter written August 1922 to a Jordan cousin and signed RUTH J. McNELY, Berlin Wisconsin. She wrote: ?The only living member of the large family now residing near the old homestead is my father, L. O. Jordan who is 78 last Jan, 14 (1922).? L. O. Jordan had several sisters, RUTH JORDAN HOWE who died at the age of 84 during the winter of 1921/22 and a younger sister MARY, who went to take care of Ruth during her illness and died a week later at age 68. There were probably two more sisters ? MARTHA and GEORGIA, and a brother. RUTH McNELY also wrote that she drove up to the old home and went over on the island where she went cranberrying as a child - ?the marsh is about grown over ? my Aunts went to school across this swamp and through the wood for over two miles and a half (that being the nearest school to them?)? ?We have the lotus lily growing here in Lake Puckaway.? Any help will be appreciated. Sara
