Hi everyone. I am Albion, Michigan Historian. Here in our area there is an historic Cuatt Family descended from John Cuatt (b. 19 March 1810-d. May 3, 1887) who owned farms east of town in Parma and Concord Twps. Jackson County. The family still owns the area today. John was born in Westchester City, NY. He married Clarissa (b. 9 Aug 1811 Cayuga City, NY, d. 14 May 1872), and the couple had several children born in Groton NY., when they came to Albion. There are numerous descendants, and a nice group photo of the several grown children of John and Clarissa. Anyone researching this branch of the Cuatt family feel free to E-mail me as I can get you in touch with descsendants. Best wishes, Frank Passic, Albion Historian. E-mail: albionfp@hotmail.com

Hello, Richard Cuatt who lived in Devereaux (he has since passed away) did extensive work on the Cuatt line. We met him on a "genealogy" trip to the Albion area in 1992. He sent us everything he had been doing and we have all that info in our PAF database now. I am not sure if any of his family are continuing with the genealogy work. I would happy to share what I have. John Cuatt and Clarissa Knapp's daughter Betsey Cuatt married Henry Josephus Marsh and they are my husbands great, great grandparents. I would be interested in any pictures, info, etc. that you may have.Thanks

This past year descendants of William H. Marsh (Wendy Davis and her husband) were here in Albion and I showed them Ury's gravesite, met with Kenneth Cuatt here who has an old photograph circa 1875 of all the Cuatt siblings including Betsey (Cuatt) Marsh., wife of William's brother Henry Josepheus Marsh. We also went to the old farm of Ury Marsh south of Albion.
Ury has an old tombstone in Albion's Riverside Cemetery. I give a tour of Riverside Cemetery each year in October and next year 2002 I will be doing the pioneer section. I will probably like to feature Ury Marsh. Your ancestor Henry Josepheus Marsh is also buried there in SEction 11. Would you happen to have a photograph of him I could borrow or copy to use in the tour program? (My tour is sponsored by the Albion Public Schools).
Have you been in contact with Norman Scott Davis and his wife Wendy (Winifred)? Norman is a descentant of William Harvey Marsh, line. They too have worked on the family genelaogy. Feel free to write me at my e-mail: albionfp@hotmail.com. Best wishes, Frank Passic, Albion Historian.

Hi I am related to John Cuatt and Clarissa and their son Charles. I would like to attend your tour of the Cemetary as some of my relatives are buried there. Is the photo of the Cuatt family in a Library? Thank you for your help.

Randy, Do you have any information on the ancestors of Clarissa Knapp? We went to the cemetary tour in October and visited with Kenneth Cuatt and then we stopped in to visit Grace Cuatt (widow of Richard (Dick) Cuatt) whom we had met about 10 years ago when we visited Albion.

All the information I have on the Cuatt's I got from Dick (Richard) Cuatt in 1992. He has since passed away. In the things that he sent me I found a note that says, "According to family legend, Clarissa Knapp's parents emigrated from Germany. See John Sweet's Cuatt records." I believe John Sweet is a fellow who was helping Dick do research in NY.
