My Mothers side of the family



George Frank, Phebe, Charlie, Niland, Maude, Russell and Glen

On my mother side I am searching, Owen, LaRue, Donahue, Morehouse, Paradise, Sawyer, Joslin, Whitcomb, Prescott, King, Waters, Coggin\Cogan, Harper, Linton and Taylor\Tyler.

Owen family is mainly from Grayling Michigan and earlier from Goodrich Michigan, Donahue name is from Goodrich Michigan and Whitechurch, ON Canada. LaRue name is from Quebec Canada (no relations to Lash LaRue the old movie actor). Morehouse name goes to New York and Vermont and the rest go back to New England and Massachusetts back into the 1600's. I really needs to re-watch the show "Who do you think you are?" with Sarah Jessica Parker. Then look to see if I have any ancestors involved in the Salem Witch Hunt. The Sawyers, Joslins, Whitcombs, Waters and other lived in the late 1600's in Lancaster, Worcester, MA. The program was very inspiring!

I have so much to tell of my family. This is my very first blog and I am excited of writing about my family relatives, stories and records I have collected for over 15 years.
