Hi Cheryl
My fathers sister Bessie Maxwell married Grant McGeachy (also spelled
McGathy) - not sure who my Uncle Grants parents were - but could probably
find out from their daughter Shirley McGeachy Simons. I have that entire
downline on my Maxwell family tree. I will send you an invitation to my
Maxwell family website and you can download my Maxwell Tree - where you will
find all of the McGeachys in my family. I am also acquainted with my Uncle
Grants brothers family -- he is Charles McGeachy -- ac

Hi everyone,
I posted the B.F. Parker deed (below) as an experiment to see if the
Genconnect Deeds board is set up to post to this list. I have additional
copies of deeds that I will be posting periodically. These are mostly for
my Parker ancestors in Grant Township in the village of Canboro.
The Bible, Deeds, Wills, Pensions, Biographies, and Obituary Genconnect
boards are set up to post automatically to this mailing list. I hope that
everyone will enjoy this additional source of surnames.

Here is a Michigan Horror story. I think it could probably happen all over
the world but it happened in Michigan. I think people should rally around
