Mary STEVENS married Peter BOYD and moved with his relatives, the DeVOE family, from NYS (St Johnsville area) to Wisc. She was in Wisconsin before 1860. Her sister is my direct ancestor and I have hit a brick wall as to Mary and Lucinda Miranda STEVENS' parents names. They may have come from Mass.
Thank you. Barbara

Is there a birth record for Marion HUNTER, son of Joseph and Elva (McKITTRICK) HUNTER? I believe he was born between 1890 and 1900, though it could have been the late 1880s. Birth most likely at the farm residence, which was south of Yuba City and I think it was Richland County.
Thanks Bob

Looking for information on E(gbert?) Eugene OSTRANDER, b.1850 in NY who was a violin-maker in Ithaca WI. I believe he had a brother, Edward,& a sister, Cynthia, all born in the Ithaca/Richland Center area, and that their father was Davis B OSTRANDER who was b. Aug 12, 1823 in Oneida County, NY. (Davis B. moved to Cattaraugus County, NY in 1833, married Margaret GERMAN from Wales in 1848 & subsequently moved to WI where the children were born.) E. Eugene died in Seattle WA on 6/12/1927 at age 77. I am in possession of a violin he made labeled "Ithaca 1892". His wife's name was Rachael Emma DERRICKSON, b. 1859. She died 4/13/1920 in Seattle WA at age 61. I have a picture post-card of Richland Center that E. Eugene sent in 1907 to their son, Carleton Thomas, in Fond du Lac, as well as a card sent to him in 1916 from an address in Waterloo, IA. Carleton Thomas was born in Wisconsin in 1884 and was a composer & professional musician. He played the violin and/or the mandolin in a stringed quartet or group. I don't know the name of the group but as its leader, he did advertizing endorsements for the famous Gibson Stringed Instrument company. In Seattle, he too would make & repair stringed instruments. Does anyone know what the "B" stands for in "Davis B" ? Does anyone know the name of the musical group Carl Thomas led? Any further info at all would be most appreciated!

I have two high quality photographic images of members of the Seth BUTLER family that appear to have been taken in late 1870's to early 1880's. I need help in identifying the children.

Mr. Peter G. STRAITHIS, or STRATHIS, or STAITHIS owned a candy shop in Richland Center. The year was 1930. His brother listed as Elmer STRAIT lived with him. My lost grandfather, SERRIS / SARRIS, was also a boarder in his home, and an employee at his confectionary.
Please help me find more information, especially the spelling of the shop owner's name. The census markings are not clear.
Thank you very much.

Rudy DAVIS born 1896 married Frank or Francis LOYD, I believe twice in Richland County Wisconsin, in 1911 and again in 1917.
They had four children, however the boys went by the name of TURNER. They might have raised by a Clair TURNER.
Rudy would marry a GRAPP and Cecil DeWALL also in Rockford IL. I believe the GRAFF / GRAPP was from the Prairie du Chein area.
Can anyone solve this mystery for me?

Would like to know more about James MANVILLE, who is buried in Saint Bridget Cemetery (b. 1833, d. 1891) with his wife Mary McGLYNN. The 1874 and 1895 maps of the Plat of Westford show James' farm next to that of Thomas McGLYNN, Mary's father. Specifically would like to know when James emigrated to the US and from where in Ireland. Supposedly he came in the early 1850s, through Crown Point, NY, with brothers Owen and John. Owen (wife Rose KERNAN) bought land in 1854 between Ironton and Cazenovia. Whereabouts of John unknown. All information welcome.
