Re: Joseph H Luce

kathyyoungloveGilbert — 2009-10-31 15:28:43Z

typo i dont know but i couldnt figure it out either i got the info from keith shertzer. he sent me Joseph's Miltary discharged paper. it states Jospeh's complexion was Sigled.I will send it to you perhaps you can make it out.

Re: Joseph H Luce

UNCLE RAY — 2009-10-30 19:33:48Z

Sigled? Is that a typo? I see we have coresponded before.
My Almyron was born in Livingston co NY in about 1821. He was married in 1844 to Nancy Dye in Wyandot co OH after which he moved to Mercer co PA. Both Joseph and Almyron left about 1854 with Almyron going to Barry co MI. There was a David Luce who died in Mercer co PA in 1852. Almyron named his next son David who was born in MI 1855. Nothing conclusive here just interesting.

Joseph's miltary record shows his complexion was Sigled

Re: Willard Wing Luce

ricrac02 — 2009-04-01 13:26:53Z

I didn't see your message until today, April 1, 2009. I know Willard in our family lived out East early in his life. But we think he married a Nellie in 1890 and they had a child, a girl, but no name was found. Both the mother and child died about 3 years later. I don't know if this is our Willard or not, so it could be either one. No one is alive any longer to ask.

Re: Willard Luce

WillardGHart — 2009-04-02 09:00:48Z

I just found this message board. RicRac & I are cousins. Our tree goes like this: Willard Wing (Sophia A.) 1861; George H.(Clara J.) 1834; Samuel H.(Mary J.?) Luce 1808. After that I can't find anything except they were all born in Maine. Any help would sure be appreciated.

Re: Luce Family in MI

tntgen123 — 2009-06-02 01:36:24Z

Just found your posting today. I am a descendant of the Luce family of New York; several family members moved to Michigan and at least two lived in Lenawee County. Cornelius Luce was my 7th great-grandfather. He married twice. His first wife was Olive Foster, and they had six children: Vinal, born 1782; Betsey (my 6th great), born 1785; Jane, born 1788; Sophie, born 1789; William Foster, born 1794; and John Manley, born 1796. He married (2) Sophia Smead, and they had eight children: William Pitt, born 1797; Laura, born 1800; Cora E., born 1803; Julia E., born 1804; Eliza A., born 1806; Cornelius FitzEdward, born 1808; Henry Talmadge, born 1811; and Alonzo D., born 1812. Cornelius FitzEdward lived in Lenawee County Michigan but died in Jackson County; his brother Henry also lived in Lenawee County and died in Tecumsah, Lenawee County, in 1887. I have much more information if this is the family you are looking for.

I also forgot to mention this...they have a Luce Reunion every September. This year it is the last Saturday of the month. It is always held in the old Luce Cemetary in Houston Co.
I will be taking some pictures of the old graves, and asking more questions when we go and will be happy to share what I learn and pictures too.
For some reason I had trouble sending you email R.E.Lee. If you are interested in any of this info, you can email me at grannylu@karnesec.net

Re: Richard Douglas "Dick" Luce

R.E.Lee,
I guess since I haven't heard from you that you did not get the 2 email I sent to you so I am sending it to the message board what I have on Dick Luce.
K.Elaine
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I think from info you have given you are talking about one of my husband's great uncles. He and his second wife Louise are buried in Mt Hope Cemetery in Wells, Tx.
Dick's father was Hiram Luce b. abt 1835 in MO; his mother is Sarah Ann Murray b.abt 1846 in MS; d.11 Dec 1927 in Houston, TX.
They married about 1855.

Children of Hiram and Sarah are:

1. Thomas L b. Dec 1857
2. Robert W b abt 1860
3. Richard Douglas "Uncle Dick" b. 22 Aug 1862; d. 14 Mar 1957
4. Acey b.abt 1866
5.Texana b. abt 1868; d. 14 Mar 1939
6. John b. Feb 1872 (my husband's grandfather); d. 1953
7. Jefferson b. Feb 1878
8. Crockett R. b. 30 Apr 18; d.10 Sep 1929
9. George b. 25 Nov 1882; d. 1 Nov 1953
10. Dock b. Aug 1884; d.abt 1947

This is what I have on the children of Richard "Dick" Luce but I don't know which wife was the mother of each one:

1920 Houston Co., TX census ed 77 line 53

Mattie dau 19 b. TX
Dock son 21 "
Vollie " 17 "
Bertie dau 14 "
Adell " 8 "
Lola M " 5 "
Robert L son 1 2/12 TX

All the above info was taken from a genealogy done by someone in the family...I was given a copy 2 years ago.

I am not sure that I can locate a picture of Uncle Dick but I will see what I can do.
I hope this helps in your search.

Hi Cathy -

I believe my Luce line is connected to yours.
David & Elizabeth Luce were the parents of:
1. Anna
2. Zepherriah (b: abt 1838 in Missouri)
3. Nancy
4. David
5. Emaline
6. Melinda
7. Leonard

They are listed in the 1850 Census for Cherokee, Texas (roll M432_909, page 924, image 458).

David Luce (married to Elizabeth) is the son of Abner Luce Jr. & Sarah Robinson. David's brother, Joseph Luce, was my 4th Great grandfather.

Please write me back.

charlotteyakubik — 2008-09-13 16:50:03Z

My grandfather was Laurence Leroy Luce (8/19/1896) (married to Sebylla pfirman Luce), brother of Harrold Luce. My aunt was Dorothy Luce. My father was William Edward Luce. He married my mother Gertrude Louise Gibson Luce. They had 3 children, Laurence Edward Luce, Charlotte Ann Luce (Yakubik), Trudy Elizabeth Luce (Gillialardo).

We believe that my father was adopted before my Aunt was born, but we have no proof.

I remember going to a farm in Oil City Pennsylvania owned by my grandfathers brother (Uncle) Harrold Luce.

If you have any other information, I would appreciate it

cggilbrt — 2009-06-05 16:14:43Z

I am researching Seth Luce, b. 11 Oct. 1752 in Tisbury, MA, d. 1833, Union, ME. I have found several other trees which show him as the son of Joseph Luce (1726-1808) and Jedidah Claghorn (1727-1799), which was the Ancestry.com hint. However, Joseph and Jedidah's children do not show Seth. Instead I found him listed as son of George Luce (1731-1761) and Remember Merry (1733-1802). I'm confused, however, by the fact that his marriage in Tisbury on 01/18/1776 to Sarah Luce (1757-1825), according to this branch of the tree would indicate that he had married his sister!
If anyone can untangle this, please let me know!? Thanks!
