ADGATE, SCHEURER, SCHMITT, SMITH, STOREY, TUTTLE, VAN WORMER, WILSON, YORK posted by Cheryl A. (Scheurer) Van Wormer on Friday, November 8, 1996

I have information about the following surnames - Van Wormer, Scheurer, York, Adgate, Tuttle, Wilson, Storey, Smith/Schmitt and some other names that connect into my family tree(s). I am still looking for more info about any and all of them. I can provide info about most of the Scheurers buried at the Oak Hill Cemetery in Ionia since I'm a descendent from them (John G. and Pauline L. Scheurer). I have some death records, marriage records, newspaper obits and clippings (some were hard to find) and other info. I've been researching my Scheurer side of the family tree for about two years now and the Van Wormer side for about a year. Please let me know if I can help. A home-page is in the planning stages!
