joseph e or thomas w ELY NY>MI 1838>
Joseph e Ely b 1838 Poughkeepsie NY? Married Elizabeth Driffield 1860 in NY, 2 sons William and Mortimer. Found in Michigan census 1870. Thomas W (possible brother to Joseph) found in same census, married to Katarina,children Fred and Eliza. Looking for info on parents of Joseph and Thomas and other siblings. Marriage certificate for Joseph and Elizabeth appears to be for New York City. Does anyone know of a Willett St M.E. Church that would have been there in the 1860's. I am at a brick wall, can not go further back than my gg grandparents.
