Biography

Notes

10 Jun 2016 - I also have two other children listed for Morris and Eleanor Wallace, but I don't know where that information came from. Probably from other family members or names written on a piece of paper. Those names are Willie Ford (b. 1857, d.1869) and Mary E. Ford (b. 1868, d. 1931). Note that 1867-1950 Michigan Death Record for 1906 it states that Eleanor Ford was 22 yrs. old when she married and she is the parent of 2 children, in which 2 are living. Also, I have been unable to confirm Morris and Eleanor's marriage date.
