Sherwood/Hickok Reunion, Mt Pleasant, Ohio

BuggBigelowCrosbySherwood59 — 2012-05-30 21:48:09Z

The late Zeta Loretta Sherwood, b: 15 Dec 1911, Midland, Midland, MI, d: 19 Mar 2004, 137 Carhart St., Marion, OH 43302 (I use to live across the street from them on Carhart) and William Lafayette "Jack" Hickok, b. 18 Feb 1906, Selma, Delaware, IN, d: 30 May 2001, 137 Carhart Street, Marion, Marion Couty, Ohio, 43302, USA. Zeta's deceased son, Jim Hickok (adopted) had married Phillis. Their daughter, Kawana Lynn Hickok goes by Lynn Murphy Picker on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/#!/profile.php?id=100000559331306. You can send her your address. Zeta's and Beulah's parents were John Delnor Shewood,b: 26 Feb 1865, Comsteel, Canistee, NY, d: 12 May 1949, Midland, MI.

NOTICE: HOWARDS OF LYNDEN FAMILY Reunion AUG. 20, 2010 in Lynden, ONT

jmbillson — 2010-03-11 04:07:04Z

"Howards of Lynden"

To all descendants of Barnabas Howard (1791-1835) and his wife Margaret Victoria Moore Howard (1793-1878):

Through many internet and email connections over the past few years, several branches of the families descended from Barnabas Howard (1791-1835), a founding member of Lynden, Ontario, have discovered their common interest in knowing more about our remarkable ancestor, his origins and his descendants.

We now have plans to meet for a get together at Lynden United Church on Friday, August 20, 2010. This gathering, across the street from the historic cemetery which Barnabas Howard initiated the year prior to his death, will give us a chance to meet each other, share some photos, history and recollections.

We hope this reunion will be of interest to all with a family connection, and to all in the community with an interest in the history of the early settlers of Lynden.

Please let us know if you would like to have more information about this event.

Best regards to all--PLEASE EMAIL CLAIRE IF YOU PLAN TO ATTEND

Claire McMordie (Calgary, Alberta) and David Howard (Ancaster,Ontario)

Re: Michigan Walworth family reunion?

PaulWalworth73 — 2010-02-27 20:17:38Z

Just checking in as I have been working on the Walworth-Walsworth line of some time and keep trying to add all and then tie them together if possible. Can't seem to find a Wayne Roy Walworth. Is it possible I could get some dates and Places? I do have a lot of family from Michigan as I was born and raised in Lenawee County Michigan. If anyone goes the the Michigan reunion I sure hope they gather as much family history as possible. I have been able to tie in quite a few of the Walworth's but found many weren't related until further down the line at times. For some reason we seem to merge together no matter where we came from.
Well Thank you even if I get no response

Hi Paul,

Sorry, I guess I should have explained. -Your Aug 3 posting mentioned not knowing where the family went and a brief look at 1911. I was just adding the 1911 census info - looked like Frank's widow Ellen Caverley, b January 1872.

You may already have this. Attaching Frank's death notice.

Re: Caverly Reunions

PaulCaverly — 2008-08-04 11:41:14Z

So do you know what happen to Ellen or Helen and her children after frank died? Did they leave the island? Did she remarry? I think the Ontario Cemetery listing has some Forbes graves listed on Wolfe Island. Did you ever find Ellen/Helen's birth registration?
Regards,
Paul Caverly

Re: Caverly Reunions

Tigerdolly — 2008-08-04 02:15:54Z

Paul
Nothing confusing about this family!
This Forbes family is mine! I have them all listed in my tree. The only one married is Ellen or Helen to Francis Caverly. Ann

Re: Caverly Reunions

PaulCaverly — 2008-08-04 02:04:21Z

Things get even more confusing in the 1881 census for Wolfe Island, Frontenac. We find the following Forbes family:
Samuel 47
Rebecca 44
Robert A. 15
Mary Jane 14
Thomas A. 12
Ellen 11
John 10
Samuel 8
Walter 6
William N. 4
The children are all listed as born in Ontario but the parents are listed as born in Ireland. If the above Ellen is the same who married Francis Caverly she would have been born about 1870. I search 1870 to 1873 but could not find a birth record for Helen or Eleanor. On a marriage record for Frank Caverly and Helen Forbes her age is shown as 24 in 1897 which would make her birth 1873.
Regards,
Paul Caverly

Re: Caverly Reunions

Tigerdolly — 2008-08-04 01:34:13Z

Paul
Thanks for all your help!
When and if you find more please let me know! I am a Forbes and I'm realy interested in learning more about my family. Thanks Ann

Re: Caverly Reunions

PaulCaverly — 2008-08-04 01:02:51Z

Try to find more details on Francis Caverly’s family is going to be a problem. The surname looks like Cavlary or Caveary. On ancestry it was transcribed as Carbary.

I looked briefly at the 1911 census with no luck finding the family survivors since Francis died in 1905. At least they spelled the name Caverly on his grave marker for which I have a photo.

I did find the death record for Forbes, Chas – d 1 Jan. 1905, Wolfe Island, #010677, page 781, County of Frontenac, name of person making return, Mrs. F. Caverly. So Eleanor would be about 32, Andrew 14 and Nellie 12 when Francis Caverly died. Looks like Eleanor’s father died 8 month before her husband’s death so 1905 was a very bad year for her.

I can find Charles Forbes, age 40, in the 1891 census for Wolfe Island.
The marriage record indicates Helen Forbes and her mother as Rebecca Anderson.

I found a Mrs. Eleanor Esford (correct to Forbes) b abt 1877 d 19 Feb.1933 with parents listed as Samuel Forbes and Rebecca Anderson, Informant was a dau, Mrs. Helen Jackson.

Looks like more searching will be needed but the different spellings are a challenge.

Regards,
Paul Caverly

Ann,
I found another Francis Caverly in my files. I have him filed under Irish Caverlys. Born Francis Archibald Caverly, 21 Apr. 1897, Ontario, Canada. I believe his parents immigrated from England abt. 1888.

Paul Caverly

I know William Darcy McKeough of the Chatham area did research on the Walkers. He was a local MPP many years ago. His wife is a Walker. I believe he donated a lot of his research to the local Ontario Genealogy Society branch near Windsor.

Hi Ann,
Thanks for the message. Francis E. (Frank) Caverly & Helen Forbes are somewhat difficult to tie down. They don’t seem to show in various census records for Canada and the USA. There is a marriage record for 30 Apr 1897, Wolfe Island, Ontario, Canada so the dates of children you provided was surprising. Can you tell me where you found the info? There is a grave stone on Wolfe Island for Francis E. Caverly died 15 Sep 1905 at 34 years. Possibly Helen remarried since she would still be young at the time of Frank’s death.
Let me know what else I can tell you, I believe you found much of my posted details already. I look forward to your reply and possibly sharing more details about this couple.
Regards,
Paul Caverly

Hi paul
I'm related to the Helen Forbes who married Francis E Caverly in 1897. They had two children that I have been able to find so far! Andrew & Nellie born in 1891 & 1893. I was wondering if you had anymore on this family and if you can share it with me!
Thanks Ann Dearing

Re: High Family Reunion

cghigh — 2008-04-27 20:20:24Z

Yes I do have more. Mae was my grandfather's sister. She was born in Van Wert County OH. Her name was actually Mary. She was married twice, her first husband was Charles Emerick the son of a Circuit Court judge. The marraige didn't last ten yrs because in 1900 census showed her Mary High living with her parents George and Mina High. She married Charles Emerick in 1901 by the 1910 census she was living back at home with her parents going by Mae High this time.

Her parents and grandfather Daniel High is buried in the Hillman and Rust Twp Cemetery, so are her 2 brothers Oscar and Charles. I have a picture of their family taken about 1900 on my wall.

If you would like to know more I would be glad to share. you can contact me at highmanorfarms@yahoo.com I look forward to hearing from you again
