In Reply to: Addie (Crawford) Graf (b.1871) & son Donald (b.1900), of Howard Co., IA by Marge Rice of 717

Miles, Addie's husband, was the son of my g-g-aunt, Catherine "Kate" Gannon. Kate married Nicholas Graf in Sheboygan, WI and then moved to Howard Co, IA where she had Miles and other children. Kate's mother Catherine Gannon, and her brother (my g-g-grandfather) Lawrence Gannon moved there with them. The Gannons were all born in Ireland, coming here in 1849 to escape the famine.

Donald was Addie and Miles Graf's only child. For some reason between 1920 & 1930, Addie went to live with her son Donald in Cambridge, MA and her husband Miles went to live in Hartford, Van Buren Co, MI.

Family Tree Maker says Addie is the "wife of my 3rd cousin, 3 times removed". I'm a pretty distant relation of Addie and Donald Graf, but maybe my posting will help someone recognize this family.
