    Notes:

    BIRTH: 03 Aug 1898 in Bay City, MI per Terry---Mabel according to everyone in the family was born July 1, 1900. But the 1900 census says she was one year old in May of 1900. Mom swears her birthday is July 1st 1900. However, Bay City birth records show the true birth date. The 1900 Census says born July 1899. It is odd that when the month and year is given on such a young person, it could be a year off. Although I have seen that before and upon thinking about it I can understand how it could happen. Assume Mabel was born in July 1898 (the date of record over a year later could have been a few days off). Census taker asks on June 19, 1900 how old is Mabel? correct answer is 1, because she has not reached her second birthday, yet. The census taker asks what month was she born? Correct answer is July. I can then see the census taker writing down July 1899 because that was about 1 year ago. I don't know if that makes sense, but I have seen other children listed one year off, when it just didn't make sense that the parent would be a year off on the birthdate, especially such a young child.

    PARENTS: George Seeley and Harriet Emily Schultz

    MARRIAGE: 11 Aug 1917 in Prescott, Ogemaw, MI

    DEATH: 15 May 1943 Bay City, MI

    BURIAL: 18 May 1943 Elm Lawn, Bay City per Terry--I have Gramma (Mabel) Osborne's funeral home book with signatures of people paying respects: Includes....Walter Schultz, Mrs. O.E. Schultz (difficult to make out if O or C for initial in name), Mr. and Mrs. Paul Scholtz, Mr. N. Schultz, Mr. & Mrs. R. Schultz, Mr. and Mrs. L. W. Talor or Tabor, Mr. Fred Storrs & family, references on flowers from Uncle Walt and Uncle Rube. I suspect that a sister (named Emma) to George Seeley Jr. (the George married to Harriet) was married to Fred Storrs.

    Notes:

    BIRTH: 26 Dec 1924 Bay City, MI

    NAME: Betty Mae Osborne. Betty's original registration of birth has her name spelled wrong... Bettie May Osborne. I remember mom some years back saying she went to the court house to get her name spelled right on her birth certificate because it would mess up her social security. Her school records listed her as Betty Mae Osborne. Her school record in 1930 lists her as going to Fremont School in Bay City with an address of 1218 Marsac St. Her birth certificate was corrected on Feb 7, 1984. The school records are some of the things she used to prove how she spelled her name.

    PARENTS: Mother Mabel Fern Seeley. DNA tests have shown that her biological father was not Norman Osborne who was married to her mother and who raised her. DNA tests have shown that her biological father was Glaud Phelps. Some of the DNA tests consist of the following:
    William Pugh, Jr whose mother was Doris Phelps (grandson of Levi and Anna; and child of Alvin) His DNA at 541 cM’s matching is consistent with 1st cousin once removed. This would mean that my mother’s father is a brother of Alvin Phelps.
    Randy Gulick (grandson of Levi and Anna’s daughter Lydia) at 291 cM’s matching DNA. This is consistent with the lower end of a 1st cousin once removed relationship. This also means that my mother’s father is a brother of Lydia Phelps.
    Harold Gulick (son of Levi and Anna’s daughter Lydia). This match was at 874 cM’s, which is a first cousin match. This also means that my mother’s father is a brother of Lydia Phelps.
    Mooremaggie23 is a granddaughter of Glaud’s son Frederick. If mother was a child of Glaud, then Frederick would be a ½ brother, his child would be a ½ niece, and his grandchild would be a ½ grandniece. The match was 430 cM’s, which is fully consistent with a match of ½ grandniece.
