I know that there was a group of sisters connected with St. Peter's Church in Stevens Point - Polish School Sisters of St. Joseph. If you know which church, then you can check out published parish books from the library and some of them have names and pictures of the sisters. The one for St. Peter's is "St. Peter’s Congregation : diamond jubilee, 1876-1951". LuAnn

Surnames: KATES LOMBARD Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/DFC.2ACE/437.497.1 Message Board Post: I am married to a descendant of Charles Martin Kates. Charles Martin did indeed marry Sophia Isabelle Lombard in August 1887. They had just one daughter, Harriet Marie Kates. She was born October 8, 1858 at Massillon, OH. She was educated in Spokane, Washington at a business school. She went by "Marie" Marie married Moses (Morris) Manchester after meeting him at the Campbells Soup Factory in California. They had two daughters, Phoebe and Jeanne, and moved them back up to Spokane during the depression, near relatives of Belle's (as she liked to be called.) Phoebe married and had one daughter, Jeanne Looman. Divorced and remarried C. Hans Mumm and had three more children, David, Marie and Stephen. Her oldest daughter passed away of leukemia at age 20, but the other 3 children are still living. I am married to Stephen. Jeanne married and had one daughter, Cynthia. Jeanne passed away but Cyndi still living in California.. I have many other dates for all the sibs of your father, Francis, and some info going back to Jacob Kates in 1790. There is a folklore in the family that somehow this lineage is related to the Declaration of Independance or early settlers of the US. Any information you may be able to share about the Kates' lineage would be greatly appreciated. Candace Mumm

I saw a reference to it in an obit posted on this board. I am looking for info re a Portage Co. relative who was placed in an orphange when her mother died but had no idea until reading that obit where that would have been. Where does one write re records that must exist? Has anyone had any luck in getting info or is that all sealed? I recently contacted the Veterans Home at King re a different relative and was told that other then giving me the burial site there is little they can divulge anymore due to "privacy concerns". They did respond with a letter givng the date the person was admitted to the home, the death date and included a map of the cemetery with the grave location marked.
