  • Harry Beamish-Edith Arnold Beamish, Grosse Pointe/Birmingham, MI
    My grandparents. Anyone out there who has any info whatsoever on them? Harry was born 2-22-1896. Grandma Beamish was born 7-6-1897 and she had a sister named Muriel Collins. Edith's family was from England and Grandpa Harry's family was supposedly from Ireland. There was a Beamish cottage in Ottowa, Canada. Thanks so very much.
  • Re: Andrew Williams Descendants
    Good morning, Holli

    I would love to hear from you and share some information about our gggrandparents and their family.

    Have you been able to locate a marriage certificate for Clarissa and Robert Colbry? It's being very illusive. It's my last hope for locating her parents' names. Her death registration doesn't contain that reference.

    Do you have photos of the 'older' generations?

    I'm really interested in the Jarvis' right now as well as what happened to Anna Fox Williams.

    You are very welcome to contact me directly.

  • Re: Andrew Williams Descendants
    Good morning,
    You may already know this but Andrew Williams died May 17, 1886 of lung disease.

    Have you been able to locate any information about Clarissa Bowers parents? Her death registration doesn't provide this information. Unfortunately, the person providing the details clearly only knew of her current life.

    I have some information about this family and would be very willing to share. Andrew and Clarissa were my gggrandparents.

    You might contact me directly if you wish.
