(Kilts) White writes, 10/4/1995: "The records for the Sand Lake and Nelson Twp. Cemeteries were burned. He may be in either cemetery with no stone or buried on the farmstead which was allowed at this time period in Michigan. Our death records are very poor that far back.

There are some discrepancies in the ages of Nicholas and Elizabeth, but the children's ages match up where they overlap. My cousin listed Elizabeth's maiden name as Palmer, but I have no idea where he got his information. I hope that this matches your data and that they are the same family. I've known that they came from Canada, but I never knew where. Please contact me at opgenort@sisqtel.net.   < p>Karen Opgenorth</p>  http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.kitts/10.74/mb.ashx |
