Hi Michael,

I am wondering how to have you add Peter Rush to your list.

He was in Detroit from 1870 on and was a famous actor then later became
Detroit City Controller under Mayor Hazen Pingree.

He was married to Sarah Siegel of the B Siegel family. She was a dancer.

Both Peter and Sarah were in the Company that entertained during scene
changes at the Ford theater when President Lincoln was shot.

Thank you

Patricia Rush Gilbert
