The Finch Family information was provided by Jay Finch We thank him for his contribution to the Antrim Co., Michigan Genealogy pages. Jay's Grandmother left a notebook that contains several names of people she knew and had dealings with. Jay has sent me this list and says he is happy to look up references to these names if anyone is interested. Below is what Jay has written: "I have a note book that my Grandmother kept, it looks like she used it for everything. Tracking gains / losses on the cows. Money paid to hired help, and even a recipe book. I would like to list the names that are in it so that I may share the information to any one that is connected to the name, I have already found one person. I know there are more of you out there. Some of these names I am related to others I have no idea who they are. Any one that I have information on that is in my family tree information I will add a * after the name." C H Finch * Mr Pickard & Flanagin * Mr Thurp M M Pickard * Geo Finch * Linas Gulmire Frank Finch * Tom Nelson Chet Finch * Elgy * (Finch) Issac Pickard * Mrs. Wellman Mrs. M Greenman Annie Clara Mary Susie Harrington Hattie Moore Marjorie * (Finch {Paige}) Mrs Paige Mrs Morrow Mrs Ives Nellie Adrien "I do know the following: My grandmother married in 1903 and died in 1948, in two places there is a year on the dates both are in 1905. They were married in Bellaire, but I do not think they lived there at any time. I believe they 1st lived in Central Lake and then moved to Ellsworth. I think that many of these names must be friends, or neighbors. If you would like to know what is said in the note book about anyone list email me."
