You can go here to read more about Muskegon's history, if you would like. My husband's family (Zellar) is related to the Cooley Family who was the seven family to settle in Muskegon. Do the names sound familar? What is the back name of your family in Muskegon, if you don't mind me asking? warmly, Sassafras |

I'll let you know what I find. v/r Q oh succatash, I'm afraid we've comandeered the thread and diverted it from the original thought (unless you can think of familials being linked to art and nudity...) ;-) |

Re: Muskegon, MI Roots: conversation transfer
Thank you, Brian. Can you delete the #9 post since now it just seems redundant. It would be appreciated.

Have to laugh at the irony. I worked with a guy for three years in Charleston, SC. I was on the CGC Dallas, and he worked at the base. We hit it off splendidly (plus we both had that "don't I know you from somewhere?" thought in our heads). We even compared where we were stationed during our careers, to see if we had been assigned to the same places. No joy there, still the feeling pervaded. Last year, I was finishing a chapter in my family's history, when I came across a surname name, that caused me to shake my head in disbelief and scepticism. Couldn't be?!!! Could it? So I e-mail the guy and ask where his family is from (as he was from Charleston)..."Maryland", was the reply (I was born here at an Army base, but grew up in Michigan and Canada). And who was his Great Grand mother? He gave a name, but the spelling was off (such is the way of records of the past). So, I fax him a copy of a birth, marriage and death certificate (as well as an old photograph) showing his great grand mother is my great great aunt, and left a note at the bottom stating that we are Cousins by blood... In short, we have the same #s times grand father and mother, that came over from Ireland on my dad's side in 1850. Well he called me so fast and said not too mildly "YOU have GOT to BE SH**ting me!"   He said he never put two and two together because the spelling of the surname was different enough between mine and his ancestors' (Henley vise Hanly). I told him that was probably due to the normally "inebriated state" of the local priest at the time, being cause for church records to show errors on lots of parishiners' entries... No wonder there was such a strong familiarity between us... Like I said, six degrees from knowing everyone on earth. Look forward to meeting you and yours. v/r Q |
