Henry Rich, who
married Nancy Meddaugh, daughter of John Washington Meddaugh. I
have seen information that she married a John E. Sly, after her
sister Rosella had died in 1899. Rosella had married John E. Sly,
and I see information that proves that. I have no information about
either marriage for Nancy, except the pictures in my grandfather's
photo album. In that album, Henry Rich is indicated to be Nancy's
husband. Nancy is buried in the Croswell Cemetery.

These folks are my
grandfather's grandparents, on his father's side. My grandfather is
Louis Elmer Meddaugh, son of John Washington Meddaugh, and these are
Nancy Udell (called Betsy in my photo album, I believe in error) and
Robert Meddaugh. They are buried in the Croswell Cemetery.

This
is a picture of one of Louis Elmer Meddaugh's sisters, Nancy Meddaugh
Rich. She was married to Henry Rich in the Croswell area. She is
buried in Croswell Cemetery. She was purported to have married John
E. Sly, after her sister Rosella (John Sly's first wife) died in
1899. I find no evidence of that marriage, but will continue to
search for information on it. She and Louis were the children of John
Washington Meddaugh and Mary Thibaudeau Meddaugh, who lived on 160
acres in the Croswell area.

Lucinda (Lucy)
Meddaugh Huckins, sister of Louis Elmer Meddaugh, and daughter of
John Washington Meddaugh of Croswell. This picture was taken in
Flint, Michigan, where it seems that some of the Sanilac Meddaughs
moved. An older picture in my album of her and her husband was
taken in Oscoda, where Meddaughs also moved.

This is a picture, probably taken
in the 30's, of some of the Meddaugh clan in Croswell. They had all
moved to the Alpena area, and were visiting Croswell. From left to
right, we have Mary Eleanor Parker Meddaugh (take note of that
hat!), her mother, Suzannah Mary Thornton Parker Mullon, Louis Elmer
Meddaugh, my mother Mary Margaretta Meddaugh (daugher of Louis &
Mary), Mae Meddaugh (wife of Johnny Meddaugh, their son) and her
son, Jimmy Meddaugh.

Louis Elmer Meddaugh and his wife,
Mary Parker Meddaugh, shortly before her death in Alpena Michigan.
They are both buried in Evergreen Cemetery in Alpena MI. Louis is
the son of John Washington Meddaugh and Mary Thibaudeau Meddaugh of
the Croswell area.

This is a picture of Henry
Middleton, his wife and his sister. I do not know which woman is
which, nor do I know their relationship to the Meddaugh clan, but
since this great picture was in my Meddaugh album, I'm including it
here, hoping that someone may know who they are, and how they may be
related to any Meddaugh women or men. If you know, please contact
me at the name link below. This picture is on a tintype.

This is a
picture of Margaret “Minnie” Thibado Yakes, the mother of Arthur
Yakes, my grandfather's cousin. The picture in my album labels
her "Margaret Thibaudeau Yakes". She is the daughter of Margaret
Middaugh and Peter Thibado. She was born about 1828 in Ontario,
Canada. She married William Yakes. She was found in the 1860
census in Worth Township in Sanilac county, with 8 of their 13
children. Their son Arthur was born June 7, 1870 in Dryden,
Lapeer, Michigan. (Her husband William was born February 26, 1824
in Ontario, Canada, and died in Sanilac February 29, 1896.) The
picture was taken in Ludington, Michigan, almost straight across
the entire state from Port Huron.
