Ira Bentz of Jonesville, Michigan

  of 484

My sister Kathryn and I, Marilyn, are in search of decendents, and geneological information, about pharmacist Ira A.(possibly R.) Bentz of Joneville, Michigan. He was born in Michigan of parents born in Wortenberg Germany (near Stuttgart), possibly with the surname of VonBentz, and shows up in the census of 1880 and 1900. He had 5 children by two wives:
Annette Aug. 1876
Frank Sept. 1880
Marc Connor May 1883
by Harriet H. Bentz
then
Emily D. Oct. 1889 (Later teacher Emily B. Williams of Jonesville)
Irene R. Feb. 1892 (Later of Bay City)
by Libby P. Bentz
Kathy and I remember Aunt Emily and the Williams family. Aunt Emily had an elementary school in Jonesville named after her sometime in the '50's.

Marc C. Bentz, buried in Los Angeles, is our grandfather. He had at least 3 wives:
#1 Maysie (Kansas) - Luther '03, Annette '02
# 2 Bertha Viola King (Michigan)- Paul Ira '16, Hugh '21
# 3 Laura, with whom he is buried

Bertha was our grandmother and Paul our father. Please e-mail me at crowley@ilap.com if this is your branch of the Bentz family.
