G2G: Would someone be willing to check My Heritage, or Ancestory for me?

Question

Deszell-3 I wonder if someone who has acess to My Heritage or Ancestory, might be able to get info on the siblings and parents of Genevieve Deszell Gensbechler.  Her father was Peter Deszell and her grandparents are Louis Deszell and -I think Emelia Law from Montreal. I have 1 or 2 census records from 19201900,..I would like to put together a more complete record and Her family is stumping me.

Eddie King! You are awesome! Thank you very, very much. I -so appreciate your time! This is wonderful!

Answer 1

I was born Pamela Diane Johnson in Washington DC on October 20th, 1955

Answer 2

I'll be glad to help, but it's a busy weekend. Found the 1920 census record on Ancestry. Will email what I can find asap.

Answer 3

Not too many sources show up on Ancestry using her name and DOB. Other people's family trees give a few potentially useful things:

her father's findagrave record http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=85580389&ref=acom

1880 census record for Peter Dazelle, age 38 born Michigan, wife Catherine W. F., age 36 Ohio, Jane Mary, age 13 Ohio, Amelia age 11, Susan age 9. Living next door to Oliver Dazelle age 34 who must be his brother. For both Peter and Oliver, their father was born in Canada.

Catherine supposedly a Deshettler born April 1843 in Bedford, Munroe, Michigan.

1920 census says he was born in Canada and there is a potential Drouin record for his baptism with parents Luc Deziel (maybe dit?) Labreche (I can't immediately make out the mother's name but it doesn't look like Emelie Hebert which is what the owner of the tree has as the mother - big red flag!).

Answer 4

Found on www.familysearch.org three records:

Catharine Deshetler: 1860 U.S. Census, Erie, Monroe, Michigan, age 17, born Michigan, domestic, living with David and Zoa Rabidou family.

Also found death certificate for her children.
