I've long tried to determine the MI/Throop connections. Here's what I show:
Clark S. Throop
b. abt 1818 RI or NY
m. Margaret Odren (dau of Alexander Odren of Branch County MI/Detroit area)
Alexander M. Throop
b. December 27, 1849 in IN?
m. Orpha Orilla Saunders (dau of John Saunders and Fidelia Mariah Hickox, both of MI)
Alexander as well as Orpha and her family went to the Beloit (central) KS area.
Alexander and Orpha's son, Charles John Throop (b. in Grand Rapids MI) is my great grandfather
The only other Throop name I've found is G W Throop (George) who was also in Kansas with them and appears to be Alexander's brother.
Any possible connections?

P.S.Also, ironic that Case is also a name that appears in reference to Charles John Throop's son, Ralph Alexander whose wife's mother married a case in South Dakota.Apparently the family I known each other for quite awhile.
