My grandfather lived in otsego in 1910 he was born. His name is Fred Martin Foote. His Father was Elmer Foote and mother was Almeda Slater. His mothers mom was Rosella Ardell Slater. She was an individual with a lot of last names. Also his grandfather and grandmother on his Fathers side were Christopher Foote and Charlotte Parker. They lived there in otsego also. He died in 1915 i beleive. Charlotte remarried a cornelius Corless and moved to Vanderbuilt. I am just wondering if anyone would have any info on the family. I know he also had a cousin named Bertha Taylor . She was Christophers granddaughter born in 1906. My grandfather had a sister and brother also. Vernice Stafford, and Hilon Foote. I have been doing research forever and i find out little things here and there but i really wish someone could bless me with a little more info. My grandfather is gone and so are my great aunt and my great uncle. I have some pictures and some of those are hard to figure out who some of the people are. I can send some to anyone interested. I have some of the otsego band in 1910 with my great grandfather elmer Foote,and i have one of my ggGrandma Rosell Ardella Slater whom i beleive was adopted out of an indian tribe out of Quebec that is one thing i am dieing to figure out for sure. If anyone can help me with anything please write me back.

Sincerely,Kathie Molitor
