This is great, hearing from all of you! What I have is this:
Marceline m. Mary Cline (possibly the daughter of Benjamin Cline)
Children:
1. Benjamin, b. @ 1859
2. Julian or Julius, b. ! 1862
3. Mary b. @ 1866
4. Magdolene "Maggie" b. @ 1866 (twins??)
5. Nelson McKay b. @ 1868
6. *Fredrick Edward, b. 17 Sep 1870
7. Lucie Francis, b. 17 Feb. 1874
8. Dona B. b. @ 1877
9. Arthur, b. 27 Nov 1886
Most of this I got off census records. The Census takers were very creative in their spelling of Sivadon. The one census I found (1860) had Marceline's last name as Cepheden. He was living right next door to Benjamin Cline. In the 1850 census, he had a daughter listed as Mary, and the right age for Marceline's Mary. This leads me to belive there may be a connection between these families. What are your thoughts/opinions on this?
Nelson's Family:
Mark, Marcia and Marilyn are the children of Grant, who is the son of William, who is the son of Nelson.
Kyle and Brent are the sons of David, who is the son of Gene, who is the son of Nelson.
Fredrick's Family:
Jack is the son of Jack, who is the son of Floyd, who went by Jack, who is the son of Fredrick.
I (Mary Birecki) am the daughter of Ed, who is the son of Verna, who is the daughter of Fredrick.
There are other descendants I am in touch with but they have not yet given me permission to include them on the web. Granted, neither have any of you, but you have included the info on this message board. If I have gotten anything wrong on this, please correct me!!!
Thanks!
Your cousin,
Mary
