They lived in Chicago, until she died in 1946. Any one have a clue?? This surname is harder to trace than my maiden name (glassford). Thanks

Greg,

You have given me the missing piece about my Grandmother, Delia Yott. My great grandfather is the brother of Your GG Greatgrandfather. ( I am not that old.) I was just born later in my fathers life. According to the articles, she was french canadian. How weird, my Grandfather's Family came to america via Canada. Their heritage is scotish. Let me know of anything else. Thanks so much for the info.

My grandfather's name was George David Yott. He had a sister named Delia Yott. They were from the Lake Village, IN area but I don't know where they were born. Please look at Bishir/Mueller family tree for more information.

Checked the 1920 census for you. Your George D. Yott was born in Indiana, but his father was born in Canada and his mother was born in Illinois.

Dear Mellody:

I am of the Yott family and new to tracing its roots. I do not have much info but found on the Illiois, Deaths and Stillbirths 1916-1947, an entry for Delia Glassford died 29 Apr 1943 in Chicago, Cook, Illinois age 60 born Oct 28, 1882, in Kankakee Il, father, Adolph Yott (I think is my great grandfather) who was born in Montreal, Canada?, married to Angeline Mooney? from Monteal Canada who was a housewife. Delia Glassford spouse was Arthur Glassford. Delia is buried in Holy Sepulchre Cemetery in Worth, Illiois on May 3, 1943. I found this isfo through Famiy search.org
