My grandmother was Anne Stephens (Carrie's 8th Daughter) by John Stephens. Mary Samenuk who married Michael Chewakin was her half sister, but all children were always treated as one family. Grandma Carrie was considered to be a woman who was head of her time from what everyone says.

I few years back I talked to Agnes Chewakin Perry she lived with my Grandmother Anne and her family when they moved to Illinois. What a delightful lady I found her to be! She had some stories to tell or not! Would love to have some of your information to add to my genealogy. I started a Samenuk board out here just recently.

Sincerely,

Terry
