Re: Benjamin W. Burt m. to Marinda U.(MI)

I think we may have a match.

It is very possible that the middle initial
from my grandmothers tree is incorrect. I
have found another discrepany in another part
of her tree.

The birth year falls right in line with my
estimate as shown in the other forum note.

My grandmother and her parents lived in Lowell,
Michigan. Lowell is in and on the edge of Kent
County now, but it is possible that at that
time it could have been called Livingston
County. I donated a 1920 Kent County road map
to the historical society at the Grand Rapids
Public Library last year. I remember that
many roads and even towns were different as
opposed to today. I can certainly check into
this.

My grandmother recently passed away. My mother
has all of her records and photos. I was
already planning on going over there this week
to look at them to see if I could find any
more information that is not on her tree.

To finish the lineage as shown on the other
forum note, my grandmother, Bernice Lee, was
married to John VanWingen Jr. They had a
daughter named Sharon VanWingen who is my
mother.

I don't have any records yet beyond Benjamin
Burt and Marinda Underhill so I cannot validate
Nathaniel Burt or Rhoda and Peter Waterbury.

I am planning on searching familytreemaker
onlie tomorrow to see if I can find any links.

Sorry this message is long. I got really
excited.

Thanks,

Scott Crowley
