A genealogical connection for me, this from my father’s side of the family. Elizabeth Sloan is my 2nd cousin once removed. The strange part is they were married on Calumet Road. Wish I had the house number, because my mother’s family were living there at the time, in fact my family still own the same house all these many years later. Again, any communication regarding genealogical connections is welcome.<\/p>\n
