I am trying to find my ancestors, MOORE and CHADWICK. JOHN W. MOORE married ELSIE R. CHADWICK and lived in Ionia Co. in Orleans. John MOORE died in 1918 and Elsie CHADWICK MOORE died in 1923 or 1933. Both are buried in Green Cemetery. Many of their children lived in the county, also. ALMA MOORE married ROLAND LELAND. I don't know how long the MOORE and CHADWICK families had been in the county or where they came from. Any help would be appreciated..

Ionia County. Jonathan Tibbits of Ionia County, according to a biography in "Portrait and Biographical Album of Ionia and Montcalm Counties, Michigan", was one of five brothers. Do you have info on this family? Jonathan's father was Stephen Tibbits of Rhode Island. His mother was Sophia Mason Tibbits. He was born 21 Jan 1809, in Oneida County, NY. One of the brothers may have been John W. Tibbits, who lived in Muskegon County, MI. Thanks, Bob Eckerman.

ROWE posted by Sally Kennamer on Monday, October 26, 1998

I am STILL seeking information on the death date of my great great grandpa JOSEPH ROWE. He lived in Danby, Ionia Mi from 1850 to at least 1870. His wife rebecca Wellman Rowe died in 1869 and is buried at Danby cemetery. The cemetery records also list Joseph as being buried there but there is nostone and the record does not show a death date. He was living in Oceana county MI in the 1880 census by himself. His daughter married there in 1874 and the 1900 census (with no 1890 census available to check) he does not appear in Oceana but his son Robert who had lived in Danbt previously does. I am wondering if Joseph died during this time frame and Robert moved his family to that farm in Oceana and buried Joseph next to Rebecca but could not afford a stone or if Joseph moved farther west to WI where his daughter lived (Frances Gilbert)? I would like to discover the death date by the end of the month (which is fast approaching), a time goal I set for myself. I decided that if I have not located that death date by then I will have to let it rest with the earth's history and go on to another ancestor. Any help anyone can give me or advise as to where to search would be so greatly appreciated. WHERE ARE YOU JOSEPH????AND WHEN DID YOU DIE???? Thanks Sally
