Tania, East Jordan is in Charlevoix County, near the (boundary to Antrim).
You should check the 1910 soundex to find where to look for him on the
census. Do you have access to the soundex? If not I can check for you.

Hi Again,
I hope I'm not being a pain, but I was wondering if it
would be possible for you to check the 1900 soundex as
I looked through the entire East Jordan, Charlevoix
County census for 1900 and am not finding the family
there. The 1910 census showed that Thomas Wiggins was
born in Canada, that he immigrated to the US in 1884.
He married Sarah ? abt 1892. His children were all
born in Michigan. So, I am assuming that he came
directly from Canada to Michigan and stayed here. I
just don't know what p

Tonya,
I can only help you with your first question.
Wetzel is one of those crossroad towns that never grew. You will find it
where Zipp School Rd and Ski Mt Rd cross. Almost at US 131, it is about 2
miles north of Mancelona and 3 miles south of Alba in southeast Antrim
County.
Best wishes,

Good afternoon. I am new to this list and I am
looking for information regarding David T. Wiggins.
According to his obit he was born in 1897 in Wetzel
and he received his education in East Jordan.
Okay ...
1. Does anyone know where Wetzel is?
2. Does anyone know where I might find school
records, yearbooks, etc. for this time period?
3. Does anyone know where in the 1910 census I should
look for this family ... ie. what township would this
be under?
I think that's it for now. Thanks a bunch!
Ton
Wow! Thank you very much! This is great. You know,
we do have an LDS here, but I have never visited it.
Maybe when things slow down I will have to go over
there for a day. Thank you very much for your help.
I really appreciate it.
