Comment:

Hello, My grandfather was Jesse Brown of North Kingston, RI. He lived on 10 Rod Road. I am just getting in tracing my ancestry and am getting very confused between Jessie Edward Brown and Jessie Brayton Brown. From what I can tell my grandfather was born in 1877 AND had a brother named Brayton M. born 1875. From your history they appear as the same person.

I believe my grandfather died between 1956 and 1962 in North Kingston. I also think he may have been married more that one, first wife being Fannie I.

I show that Jessie Edward Browns siblings were
Albert H. 1871
Robert A. 1873
Brayton M. 1875
Jesse E. 18977
Berriah (spelling?) 1886
Samuel P. 1888
Mable H 1894

I knew Samuel(Pike) and Mable but remember no mention of other uncles.

Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated
Michelle

Larry,
I am very interested in any information about the Vitovsky side of the family. My grandmother was Carrie (Karolina) Vitovsky Hubacek and she married John Hubacek Febuary 15, 1874.

I am planning a trip to the Czech Republic in March and I am trying to find the name/village where they were born.

Carrie Vitovsky Hubacek was born February 25, 1874 and died in Ennis, Texas October 27, 1953.

If you have any information at all, it would be greatly appreciated, especially where they came from, if this is part of your family line.

Thank you,
Patricia Trlica Pierce

My wife Ruth and her three brothers: Wallace Loylan, Michael James and Charles A. are Grandchildren of a brother of Clarence (Uncle Doc) Wilson, their mother\'s Uncle. She was treated by him as a child when she had polio, and was VERY fond of him, also often communicating with her cousin Rolland Wilson and his wife. I believe her father was William Wallace Wilson.

What a great site you have developed! I printed out the entirety and will share it with her brothers, all of whom live in the Seattle area. Their mother was (Sylvia) Helen Wilson, born in 1909 or 1910; deceased 1975. On one of her visits to us here in Seattle, early 1970\'s, she looked up one or more Wilson cousins, who were living in or near Bremerton, WA at the time, I believe.

I am so happy to find this! Dr. Clarence Wilson is my great-grandfather. Roland (Uncle Polly) is/was my grandmother, Vida\'s brother. Does that make Larry and me second cousins? My Dad, Orland, was born in Winona. I\'ve known of the Minnisota relatives and for many years corresponded with Sybil Kinster until she died in 1998. The only other relative I knew was Uncle Claude, Roland and Vida\'s brother who came to the West Coast around WWII. For a time we lived near Uncle Claude and his son, Darle, my Dad\'s first cousin in the Seattle area.
My very best to all of you and thank you again. Linda

I am searching for my Dad, Lt. Leslie Wilson who was stationed at Fort Jackson in Feb. 1959 and also at Cape Carnaveral in 1959+...later deployed to Turkey. Worked on Jupiter M... Has AB blood type like myself. Need medical info. Understand he may have been born near or moved to Los Alamos, NM and/or in Burlington NJ. A letter he wrote to my mother, Louise in 1959 states he had 2 brothers named Charlie & Frank. Letter also mentions an Uncle Jim (?) I would like more info if anyone knows something of his whereabouts or past. My wife & I have 2 daughters one of whom recently began college as a Pre-Med student.

I found your site on Ancestry.com. I noticed on some of your postings you mention Darin Jensen. I attempted to e-mail him a few months ago to let him know that some of his info was not correct. One of John Martin Eckstein's son's info is wrong. I did not receive a response. I don't know if this would be helpful to you or not for your site. My great-grandfather was Louis W. Eckstein. The 7th child of John and Julia. Mr. Jensen list a Bertha Niemuth as the mother of John Martin Eckstein's children. Actually my great-grandmother was Amy Charlotte Knapp and she was the mother of all 11 children. I suppose it is possible that Louis was married before he married Amy and had the kids. I don't know if this is helpful to you or not. Do you know how to contact Mr. Jensen? Maybe he has a new e-mail?

Hello Larry and Jane, I found your home page while researching my mothers family geneology. I tried to figure which of you I am related to- if I am. Maybe you can help. My mothers father was Sheffield Jackson Arnold, the grand son of Andrew Sheffield Arnold and Mary Louise Carpenter Jackson (Mary L.C. Jackson). I know you have them listed on your site but are they related to you? Any info would be helpful. I have enjoyed your home page and will share what I have learned with my mother. Thank you I am grateful.

John Wilson also had five daughters. Elizabeth (married Grant), Delia Ann (married Harvey)[MY ANCESTORS], Harriet (married Norris), Matilda (married Barrington), and Mary Jane (married Whitecomb).
