5511 Stephen Longespée (c. 1216 - 1260) was an English knight who served as Seneschal of Gascony and as Justiciar of Ireland.

Longespée was a son of William Longespée, 3rd Earl of Salisbury and Ela of Salisbury. He was a cousin of the King Henry III of England. His wife Emmeline was an heiress of her grandfather Walter de Ridelisford, and brought possessions in Connacht and Leinster in Ireland.[2] In 1255, Longespée was appointed the Seneschal of Gascony, where his administration was hampered with disputes with Lord Edward.[3] After Lord Edward returned to England in 1255, Longespée remained until 1257 as Seneschal, before returning to England. When Lord Edward reluctantly recognized the Provisions of Oxford in 1258, Longespée was one of the four counsellors given to accept the reform program. In 1259, Longespée was appointed Justiciar of Ireland.[4] He died in 1260.[5]

Marriage and issue
Stephen married Emmeline, the widow of Hugh de Lacy, 1st Earl of Ulster, the daughter of Walter de Ridelsford and Annora Vitré. They had the following known issue:

Emeline Longespée (died 1291), married Maurice FitzGerald, had issue.
Ela Longespée (died 1276), married Roger la Zouche, had issue.

5548 Taken from The History of Tuscola County, Biographical Sketches and Illustrations, H. R. Page Co., Chicago, 1883. Transcribed by Bonnie Petee.

G. KILE was born in Pennsylvania in 1852, and came to Tuscola County with his parents in 1856, and settled upon the farm now owned and occupied by the subject of this sketch. His father, N. Kile, died in July 1858. Mr. Kile was married in October, 1880, to Miss Tilley Fritz, of Pennsylvania, and has one son. His farm contains 160 acre of land on sections 12 and 13.

G. KILE, SR., was born in Columbus County, Pa., in 1818, remaining there until he became of age. In 1838 he was married to Miss Nancy Schultz, of that county, and soon thereafter bought a piece of land in the locality and commenced farming for himself, which he continued until 1852 when he sold out and came to Michigan. He at first rented a farm near Ann Arbor, upon which he resided two years, when he came to the township of Juniata and, after traveling a long distance through the unbroken wilderness, took up the farm upon which he now resides, and subsequently added eighty acres, making him a farm of 160 acres.

5549 Taken from the Tuscola County Advertiser Sept 29, 1899 and reads:

Nelson died at his farm home near Watrousville on Sept 24, 1899, he was one of the oldest pioneers of the County, having come here in 1851 when he was only ten years of age. He was born in Monroe County Michigan 12/31/1841 and in 1863 when the war broke out enlisted with the 27th Michigan Sharp Shooters and served until the end of the war. He engaged in lumbering until the timber was principally cut and then took up farming, which he followed successfully until his death. He was married Dec 31, 1869 to Alma Pratt of Holly, who with three sons survive him to mourn the loss of a devoted husband and a kind and indulgent father. His death was the result of tuberulosis of the liver and for many months he was a patient sufferer. Mr Miller has been a director of the Carol Fair Association for many years, has held various offices of responsibility, and trust, always acquitting himself creditably and was always a loyal and enthusiactic Republican, a good neighbor and a most exemplary citizen. Funeral services were held on the 26th. Rev Barlow of the Presbyterian Church of Caro, officiating, and the remains were interred in the Wahjamega Cemetery. Among the relatives present from a distance to attend the funeral was M/M L.D. Pratt, M/M E.J. Eisenbrey of Holly, Mrs H. Lewis of Imlay City, O.F. Pratt of Clio.

5555 Terry---Hazel Seeley born 17 Feb 1896 Bay City. In 1934 lived in Flint. Later years in Ft. Meyers Florida. She used to send Mom a Xmas card every year from Florida. Then the cards stopped. I found a death notice 5 Sept 1990 with info that seemed to fit her online. Mom said Yeah that is about the time the xmas cards stopped. Anyway I have a note that she died in Flushing, MI and is buried at Gracelawn Cemetery in Flint. She married Jay Cleaon Cheney on Aug 29, 1894. I think they had kids. Mom would know.

5556 Terry--Harry Seeley born 31 Mar 1894 in Bay City and died 13 Jun 1991 Bay City. Married Vi (forgot her last name, I am sure I have that info somewhere. Married 19 May 1917 Bay CIty. Had 2 daughters Vi (Jr) who married Mr. Smith. Mom said her obit was in the Newspaper maybe 2 months ago (Bay City). Other daugher is Dorothy still living I believe.
I talked to Harry, obviously before 1991, and he told me he was just a tiny kid when his dad died and he knows nothing about nothing when it comes to his parents and grandparents. So got no where with him. He ran a saw mill on the Saginaw River just off of Water Street in Bay City near the Lafefette bridge. That is where I found him, too, that day.

5560 The 1783 birth year on the 1834 census and the surname chart appears to be in error. Her mother would have been 13 when she was born! The age on the 1798 census and the 1850 census is more like it. Perhaps the 1834 entry was a transcription error and that was then picked up in the surname chart. Heizenraeder, Maria Charlotte (I4338)

Also he probably was the son of Edward Campe and Grace (Mott) whose marriage was recorded at Hunsdon 21 September 1615." Camp, Edward (I7908)

5564 The birth record of Eva Margaretha Sattler appears in the records of the Wald Michelbach Evangelical Church in Starkenburg, Hesse-Darmstadt. The parish records show the date of both, but not the exact location. She probably actually lived in Affolterbach, a village about 3 miles to the north which is a part of the parish.

From cvgs/origins website:
Johann Michael Johann was born on 28 February 1739 in Ober-Schönmattenwag (east of Weinheim). He immigrated to Denmark (Schleswig-Holstein) and settled in the colony of Veltenhof. He married on 26 May 1760 in the colony of Fredericia (Denmark) to Eva Margaretha Sattler. She was born in about 1736 in Affolterbach.
They immigrated to Russia in 1763, and arrived in the colony of Anton on 7 September 1764. They and their children are recorded on the 1767census of Anton where Michael is serving as the Vorsteher (mayor) in Household No. 1.

From http://www.russia-colonists.eu/wandere.htm by Gerhard Lang
MIGRATION OF COLONISTS FROM GERMANY IN 1761 TO SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN AND LATER TO THE VOLGA IN 1763.
In 1761, the Danish king (Duke of Schleswig-Holstein) recruited people from souther Germany to settle in Schleswig-Holstein, to drain the bogs and swamps and make the land productive. Many Germans answered the appeal. Later the worsening economic situation and resentment by local domestic workmen caused some colonists to break their contract with the king and desert. As the number of desertions increased, provision was made for colonists to apply for permission to leave.
At the same time, czarina Katharina the Great issued the manifesto that encouraged people to come to Russia. Among the inducements was provision for advance payment of colonist costs for the journey. There was a resident recruiter of colonists in Kiel.
The colonist records in Schleswig show that many colonists left, some requesting permission to do so while others simply deserted without a trace. Transport lists of those leaving from Travemünde and Lübeck are not to be found.
The Kuhlberg lists do provide listings of colonists arriving in Russia. The Volga village census records are another source. By comparing family names and ther names and ages of family members, I come to the conclusion that there is a high probability that many of the families that left Schleswig-Holstein became colonists on the Volga.

From the Boone County, Missouri Packet Abstract Index it appears that John Caruthers Probate Records are in Packet #3518. However, I have not seen this paperwork.

An obituary from the Columbia Statesman 17 Dec 1880 recounts his life:
Died-Caruthers
On Saturday morning, Dec 11, 1880, at the residence of his daughter, Mrs. Lucy Watson, eight miles northwest of Columbia, Mo., Mr. John Caruthers in the 88th year of his age.
Mr. Caruthers was born in Augusta County, Va., and two miles from Tinkling Spring (Presbyterian) meeting house on July 4, 1793. He was a soldier in the war of 1812, served six months under Capt. Larue(?). Col. Lindsey, Gen. Porter, at Norfolk, Va., and was drawing a pension at the time of his death. In March, 1820 he married a Miss Nancy Brown, the daughter of a well-to-do farmer who lived about two miles from his father’s home, and settled on one hundred acres of land given him by his father. She died in 1827 leaving three children, a son and two daughters. The son, David, removed in early life to California, where he married and engaged in mining. He adopted the plan of tunneling for gold, and was quite successful. He would have accumulated a large fortune, but for an incident which resulted in his instant death. The supporting props of the walls of the tunnel gave way, crushing him to death between a mass of earth and stone. He left no family but his wife. One of the daughters, Mary married Moore Petty, Esq., a well-known and highly respected farmer, teacher and justice of the peace, who resides near Bethlehem Church, in the neighborhood of Harrisburg in this county. Martha, another daughter by his first marriage, married Mr. Ishmael Vanborn, a well-known and prosperous farmer who died several years ago, and who lived near Midway, on the Columbia and Rocheport turnpike. Mrs. Vanborn died before her husband, leaving two children, a son and a daughter.
In 1828 Mr. Caruthers married his second wife, Miss Ann Rhodes Martin, of Albemarle County, Virginia, by whom he had 12 children, seven of whom are living. Thomas H, the oldest, is married and lives on a farm seven miles northwest of Columbia and near where his father died. Andrew died in his eleventh year. Martin V is married and lives near Harrisburg, in this county. James K is married and lives on the farm formerly owned by his father-in-law, Alexander Douglas, Esq., five miles northwest of Columbia. William lives near Harrisburg. Julius is dead. His oldest daughter by the second marriage, Margaret, married Mr. John Richards, of Rocheport. Elizabeth, the second daughter, who died a few years ago, married Mr. Geo W Thurston, who lives near Midway. The third and youngest daughter, Lucy, married Mr. James Watson, deceased, who lived on an adjoining farm to his brother-in-law, Mr. Thomas H Caruthers. It was at her house that the deceased died.
Mr. Caruthers emigrated to Missouri in the fall of 1832, coming with John Akeman from Bath County, Va. and living for the first four years on the farm now owned by Mr. Robert Scott, five miles west of Columbia. He afterwards purchased 160 acres of land on the old Sexton Road where it crosses the Perche, on which he lived for thirty years. The farm is now occupied by Mrs. Hezekial (Mullaline?). His last wife died in November 1850, but he did not break up housekeeping until 18??, since which time he has lived with his youngest daughter, Mrs. Lucy Watson.
In 1818 or 19 he united with the Presbyterian Church and died (knowing?) of the Peace to his ashes, as they rest in the family graveyard on the old homestead.

1820 US Census: Elizabeth Caruthers in Stanton, Augusta County and John Careathers in Waynesboro, Augusta County. (1 male 26-44 and 1 female 26-44 is consistent with his just marrying Nancy Brown earlier in 1820.)
 
Caruthers, John (I6359)
 
5575 The first mention of William Ward in America appears in 1639 in the land division records for Sudbury MA.

In 1656 he was with a group of 14 men that petitioned to create the new village of Marlborough MA.

William Ward, in common with others, endured great hardships and sustained great losses by Indian hostilities; more especially in the time of King Phillip's War (1675-76) when his buildings were fired, his cattle destroyed, and one of his sons slain by the enemy.

There is also much dispute over the identity of his wife that came across the ocean with and bore his children. Per her gravestone in Marlborough.

"Here lyes the body of Elizabeth Ward, the servant of the Lord - deceased in 87 year of her age, Dec. ye 9, in the year of our Lord 1700."
 
Ward, William (I7176)
 
5576 The first record of Thomas Dewey in the new world is 1633 in Dorchester. Speculation is that since he first appears in a record in 1633, he may have arrived in July 1633 on an unnamed ship which sailed from Weymouth, Dorsetshire, England. But again that is speculation.

It has been claimed that he was from Sandwich, Kent, but there is no evidence. And most of the early settlers of Dorchester were from the West Country of England, not Kent.

He married Frances Unknown, widow of Unknown Clark, in Windsor on 22 Mar 1638/39. It has been stated that her first husband was Joseph Clark of Windsor, but Clarence Torrey proved in 1928 that this was not the case.

Thomas died 27 April 1648 in Windsor.

His widow Frances remarried Nov 1648 the widower George Phelps, another of our ancestors.

Thomas Dewey appears in the "Great Migration Begins: Series" and the above information is from that source.

Among the descendants of Thomas Dewey are Mamie Eisenhower, Admiral Thomas Dewey and three of the "Beach Boys" Brian, Dennis and Carl Wilson.
 
Dewey, Thomas (I5731)

5579 The following is copied from werelate.org:

From Ye Horseford Booke

Obadiah became resident and prominent at Hebron.

Obadiah and Mindwell were both buried in "Obadiah's Nine Acres." This nine acres he bought from the Deweys in 1720 and he allowed priviledge of burial to all persons from the town. No stone appears for Mindwell but Obadiah's stone displays a long and curious inscription which reads as follows:

"These in memory of that most Worthy and much serviceable and well beloved Capt. Mr. Obadiah Hosford, Capt. of the First Military Company in Hebron and Grate Practicnor of Phisick who after sarveing God his generation & the publick Faithfully many years in this life and a patient looking for the Blissful dawn of that Illusterous day wherein our Victorious and tryumphant Joshua will lead the Armies of Israel into the land of Canaan and command the Sun of Glory to stand still in the noon of Eternity and that Permanent Happiness... love to know an evening did with the holy disciple lean himselfe upon the Breast of his Beloved and the will of God ...lly fell asleep in the cradle of Hope on the 27th day of February A.D. 1741 in the 63 year of His Age.
By Benjamin Collins-Lebanon Crank"

The Benjamin Collins of the last line was the maker of the tombstone, possibly the composer of the epitaph. Lebanon Crank does not refer to Mr. Collins but denotes a town adjacent to Hebron which later became Columbia.

... Court and land records show him at Hebron in and after 1706. The people worshipped for a time in Dr. Obadiah Horsford's barn. Sheldon's History of Northfield states that David Barber and 13 others were baptized in this barn in 1717. The church was later built upon the N.W. corner of Obadiah's farm. In 1712 Obadiah petitioned the General Court for leave to practise medicine. The following testimonials are on file:

The first was given by Gershom Buckeley, by profesion first a minister, later a physician. He was evidently of a discreet and cautious temper.

"Gasen bury May 7, 1712
As to Mr. Obadiah Horsford's desire of a Testimonial to ye wld fr his allowance to practise Physick, my answer is that when men give any Testimony whatever, they ought to testify what they know, not what they do not know.

I know by written report and in part from himself that he hath practised divers years, but as for his having skill and success in ye art and practise of Physick, I know nothing. It may be very good for ought I know. G. Buckeley"

The second testimonial is from Samuel Mather, also a physiscian:

"Whereas Docter Obediah Hosford of Hebron, desireth a testimonial from us as to his qualifications fitting him for ye practise of Physick in this Collony - We do by what we have heard of his practice some years past and by ye good acceptance he hath had among his people and by what we conceive he hath gained, by Reading and Experience in that Science, approve of his being an allowed Physitian and hope he may be allowed and encouraged therein. Saml Mather (Practr Medicine) Windsor May 16, 1712"

At New Haven, Oct. 11, 1722, The Court of Conn. Colony established and confirmed Mr. Obadiah Hosford to be Captain of a Train Band in Hebron. In 1729 and 1731 he was Deputy from Hebron to the General Court. He kept an inn at Hebron and in 1731/2 was one of the incorporators of the New London Company "invited for trade and commerce."

Obadiah's will, dated Sept. 14, 1737, proved June 1, 1741, describes him as Captain Obadiah Horsford of Hebron...

5580 The following two letters were written by Eliza West Hill to her sister and brother in law, Frances West Mitchell and James Mitchell, in the early part of 1846. I have transcribed them as exactly as possible, even maintaining spelling, grammar and number of words on each line. They were both written at a difficult time in the lives of most of those mentioned, mostly children of William and Lydia George West. I obtained copies of the letters from another descendant, Earl "Gene" Owen of New Franklin, Missouri, in the mid 1980's. Digitized copies are located in the photo scrapbook section for Eliza West, the author. Gene is now deceased but was a great family historian who spent considerable time researching his ancestors..

The first page brings news of the death of their brother, Bransford West. It is the only firm documentation found to date of the death date of Bransford (January 10, 1846). Note that the date of the letter is January 6, 1846. I have no answer for this discrepancy, except that it likely should be the 16th. Eliza details the pre-death symptoms of Bransford with a description that leans strongly in the direction of heart failure..

Eliza mentions another brother, who was living nearby - Rolla "Rolly" West. The letter documents him living nearby with William Freeman. William was the brother of Caroline Freeman, wife of Rolla West..

Eliza also notes that she is living on her parents estate. This occupation will continue until the estate is settled, and the property sold and divided among the heirs. Eliza is also careful to note new expenses against the estate, probably so there are no surprises to the heirs..

"Lindy and the buoy" is a reference to the two slaves that were owned by William and Lydia West. Lindy was the slave Malinda, and the boy was Rufus. Lydia had inherited two slaves from her fathers estate, "Malinda and Sidly", and it is assumed that they represent a later issue from these two. "Peoples" refers to a presently undocumented individual who hired Malinda and Rufus during the period of estate settlement and before being offered for sale as part of the estate liquidation process. They were finally sold on February 7, 1848, to James H. Bennett, a Boone County Doctor. Malinda sold for $336.00, and Rufus sold for $175.00..

Eliza mentions the birth of Sarah Campbell West's child, Bransford West ( "Sarah has got a very fine Sunn. . . ". Note that Bransford was the last child of Bransford and Sarah West as he was born approximately a month after his father died. There is little doubt that Sarah named her last child after her husband, yet another West whose name memorialized the matrimonial union of Francis West and Elizabeth Bransford, three generations before..

The last thought notes that Eliza and family were about to visit Frances and James Mitchell until their parents were stricken by death. The letter implies, rather solemnly, that the funerals of both were held in the town of Columbia..

Bransford West died intestate in Boone County. Probate filed 20 Mar 1846, John Davenport administrator. Probate Packet in Boone County is packet #669. Packet itself not online with familysearch,.org, nor do I have a copy of it.

5582 The following was copied from werelate.org:

From "The Griswolds of Olentangy", by The Reverend Edwin Viets Griswold, 1939: By the beginning of the 14th century the Griswolds, who probably came with the Teutonic invaders, were well established in Warwickshire, heart ofAnglo-Saxon England, as an ancient and aristocratic family, with a crest and coat-of-arms. The arms are described as "Argent, a fess Gules, in chief two greyhounds courant proper," said to be preserved in a window in the east end of the nave of the church at Solihull. Various members of the family are described as "of Solihull," "of Longdon Hall", "of Malvern Hall." Distinguished clergy and lords of the manor appear at intervals. In 1437 King Henry VI granted custody of Solihull to a Thomas Greswold. Tradition, which usually has some fact for a basis, associates three Griswolds with Edward I, whose favor they had won by distinguished bravery in the Crusades, Later the King recorded that of all his dogs he was fondest of his greyhounds from the Griswolds of Solihull. So it appears plausible that the family name may very well have been originally Greysweald, derived from the Icelandic grey, signifying "dog" or "greyhound," plus the common Anglo-Saxon weald, or wold, signifying "woods." Hence the arms and crest of the family who lived in a woods and raised the favorite kind of dogs for royalty."

Second marriage

'George married second (2) Honora (Pawley?) about 1616, apparently in connection with his purchase of a cottage and garden in Kenilworth from Hugh Underhill and Lettice, his sister. Honora was probably a connection of the Underhill's and possibly their (Hugh and Lettice) mother. Their father, (Honora's first husband) John Underhill had died in Holland in 1608 . No record of Honora has been discovered until her remarriage at the Klooster Kerk at the Hague on 28 Nov 1628 to Dirck Thomasen so she may have returned to Kenilworth during the 1609 -1621 truce, after her husband died.'

Since his wife remarried in 1628, it seems he must have died before 1643.

Origins

The origin of Edward Griswold was discovered and documented by Genevieve Tylee Kiepura in the 1963 TAG article Griswold Ancestry in England, and presented again in the Griswold Family Association of America's 1999 publication, The Griswold Family: 12 Generations in England. The research found that Edward was the son of George Griswold by his first wife Dousabel (probably Leigh). See the Griswold Family publication for an explanation of Edward's relatedness to other colonial New England Griswolds.

[edit]

Life in New England

Came with Rev. Mr. HUIT from England; was in Windsor 1639; removed to Killingworth, Connecticut, called then "Kenilworth," presumably in honor of his native place. Windsor granted him twenty-nine acres, bound south and east by the brook, east by river and Indian Reservation (Indian Neck). He removed with the first settlers to Hamonoscett; George and Joseph had the homestead. In 1674, he was granted two hundred acres of land at the north end of Lyme.

Very active in the early community, serving as:
first deacon of the church
first delegate to the General Court
Justice of the Peace in Windsor
Deputy from Windsor 1658-1662
enrolled as Deputy in 1667
Deputy for Killingworth in 1678
nominated for assistant and as commissioner
representative of Killingworth in every court 1678-1689 (during which he was repeatedly made Commissioner)
committee of the County Court to see what could be done toward a Latin school at New London for the County New London (1678)

5597 The Gardiner genelogy book shows Mary Gardiner b. 25 Jul 1728 dau of Henry Gardiner and Catherine Davis marrying Jonathan Hazard on 16 Apr 1747. Some online trees show that Mary married Daniel Shaw in 1752 after Jonathan Hazard died. However, Gardner and Hazard show children born after 1752. I cannot find any source for her 2nd marriage. The marriage to Hazard shows up in the Vital Records of Rhode Island, the marriage to Shaw does not show up there. This appears to all be a mistake. The Settlers of the Beekman Patent Book shows Mary Gardner as his wife. However, it does not confirm her parentage or her previous husband. Gardner, Mary (I7252)

5600 The Mary Mills who appears on the 1861 Census in Southwold appears to be a different Mills family.

Notes by Kristin Schwark on findagrave.com:
Very little is known of my 3x great grandmother. I was able to connect with someone in North Dorchester, her only confirmed place of residence, and her marriage info was found. Mary Mills & Anson DeGroat wed on September 28, 1857 in Yarmouth, Elgin, Ontario. On the 1861 Census of Canada her estimated birth year was 1839 (Anson's was 1836, but actual year is 1833. I'm calculating that hers may have been fudged as well, at 1836). They had a daughter, Anna (1859). 4 years later, still in Canada, they had Lydia (Aug 1863). The family moved to Goodland, Lapeer, Michigan sometime between September 1863 and May 1866. Their daughter Mary was born there on June 12, 1866. Sometime between Mary Jr's birth, and Anson's next marriage on January 18, 1869, Mary Mills had died or abandoned her children. On the 1870 US Census, the 3 girls were with foster parents. Anna & Lydia were with the Carpenter's, and Mary Jr was with the McConnell's. Michigan death records were not kept formally until beginning in 1867, and fully by 1868. It is my conclusion that Mary did indeed die in Lapeer County. I will keep digging, and not let her slip through the cracks!!

A few notables from my ONLY record:

Born abt 1839 in Canada West (possibly fudged like Anson)
Religion: WM (living with/near Anson's family who were all listed as CPM)

In my search for Mills in or around North Dorchester (Middlesex County) and their marriage location (Elgin County) on the 1852 Census, I found a Mary Mills, born abt 1835, listed as Baptist, who was NOT living with her parents in 1861. Jesse, Matilda, Mary & siblings were in Southwold, Elgin County. Although the birth years are off (common occurrence), and the religion is different (she may have conformed to Anson), it seems to be the first real possibility I've found to who she is. I hope she didn't abandon these girls, and, I hope her death was not caused by Anson. (He remarried and abandoned a few times). I also thought she may have been buried in the local family plot on Henry Ruiter DeGroat's farm, but there seems to be no record of it. That burial ground was also known as Lum Cemetery, and is now Arcadia Township Cemetery. My guess is she is there with no record or headstone, or was returned to Canada. Her possible parents are in Iona Cemetery, but again, no record of her there either. The family had moved to Lambton County sometime between 1861 and 1871, so she may be buried in Lambton. She was so young and unexpected, they may have just buried her local to their current residence, versus going back to Elgin County, where Iona Cemetery and most of the family are.

1870 living in residence of Alexander and Phoebe Carpenter. Phebe is the daughter of Abner Chase and Lydia Upton. Also next door on the census is Sharley Wilson, another daughter of Abner and Lydia. Abner and Lydia are quakers in Yarmouth, Elgin County Ontario. We have multiple autosomal dna matches with Abner & Lydia although we do not know the exact relationship. Also both sisters had either a son or grandson of John Mills/Abigail Minard as a witness at their weddings in Canada. We also have multiple autosomal dna matches to John Mills/Abigail Minard, although we do not have the exact line fleshed out. Mary may be a granddaughter to them.

Based on numerous DNA matches we believe that Amasa Chase was the illegitimate father of Mary Mills. He was living in Yarmouth at the time. Numerous matches show that his DNA goes through Mary Mills line to her descendants. After Mary died, two of her children were 'adopted' by Amasa's sister, Phoebe Carpenter in Lapeer, Michigan. We believe Mary's mother was a child or grandchild of John Mills & Abigail Minard. Again, numerous DNA matches to Mills/Minard come through Mary's line. Mary would have grown up in one of the Mills households. Unfortunately, the 1851 census for the section of Yarmouth that the Mills family lived in is missing. The 1841 census was head of household only, and we cannot identify Mary. The 1861 Census shows Mary living with her husband, Anson Degroat.

A review of probate records shows that there is no record of probate for Mary or record of conservatorship for any of the children in Lapeer County.

A probate file at https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QS7-89SC-B6MF for Sharley Chase WIlson, daughter of Abner Chase and Lydia Mills refers to Anna Degroat Phelps (daughter of Mary Mills) as her niece. Niece would not be possible, however if Anna Degroat was her grandniece that would mean that a parent of Mary Mills would have been a sibling of Sharley. Thus, Mary Mills would be granddaughter of Abner Chase and Lydia Upton. The 1842 census of Yarmouth https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:939D-VQCT-P?i=4&cc=1834342 shows 1 female under the age of 5 in the household of Abner Chase.
