My family is looking for any
information on an Issac Austin who was married
to a Minnie "Harshbarger" Austin. They
had three children 2 girls and a boy, One girl
was named Jeanette and the other we do not know,
the boy was Fred.. Issac died in some kind of
accident in and around Gladwin County, Michigan
around 1904. He is burried in a cemetary near
the town of Rhodes. She moved herself and the
children to her home town in Sidney, Ohio where
she died not too soon after her husband died
of cancer and the children were put in an orphanage.
That
is as far as our family information goes, the
boy Fred was my grandfather and he was only 3
or 4 when he and his sisters were put in the
orphangage, so he did not remember much. Any
help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

David Austin's Children
I have a copy of an obit (I think)
for a "Mrs.
Martha
Anna
Francis
Austin" b.
8 Jun 1820 who died in Waterbury
Vermont. It says that she is the oldest daughter of David and Pamela Wright
Austin.
How can she be "Mrs" and
still have the last name of Austin - maybe
she married a cousin or something? Have you
ever heard of this person?

I am a SUTTON family researcher focusing
on William SUTTON of Stockton (Cassadaga),
Chautauqua, NY who married Emma Smith Austin after
first wife Emma Miller died. Emma Smith
Austin had two children: Minnie Austin, Willie
Austin. They later had several more SUTTON
children.
I'd like to correspond with the AFAOA genealogist
or interested persons to exchange information.
I particularly would like to find primary evidence
for the Emma Smith marriage to William Dalton
Austin.

This helps make more sence of William Sutton's
wives. He married Emma Miller April 22, 1877
in Stockton and she died 5/5/1878.
He then married Emma Smith widow of unknown
Austin. She had two children from her previous
marriage Minnie Austin and Willie Austin. I
wish I could find out the name of her first
husband. I believe Emma died in Rochester at
the home of her daughter Evelyn Sutton Ramsdall
the wife of Charles Pitt Ramsdale.
I wonder who Emma's parents were. Minnie Austin
married Archie Sprague March 17, 1897 at Burnhams
(now Cassadaga). They had three children Lucille
Eloise Sprague 1898, Benjamin M. Sprague 1902
and Margaret Rosina Sprague 1907. Archie Sprague
grandmother was Elizabeth (Ames) Rice. William
Sutton was about 40 when he married the two
Emma's. Makes me wonder if he had a another
wife before he married them. 1/02/07

Co. VT. Have you heard of this Chloe Austin?
I didn’t find her on your

anywhere
else either. They are listed on Marcus’ death
certificate as his parents. I think they were
born in or lived
in Massachusetts before moving to Vermont.

Dottie Darswell-ddsdoll@cox.net
Minnie
and Oscar
Atkins were
married about
1888 in Georgia.
Family members
tell
me that they were known as Uncle Oscar and
Aunt Minnie and Minnie was a nickname. I also
heard
that Minnie was the
oldest daughter of John Thomas and Georgia
Austin.
I cannot find a record prior to 1900
showing
the Austin's
oldest daughter. In the 1900 census (Polk Co.,
GA)
she is only 18 (born abt. 1882) and they
already have a
baby. I also found the rest of the family and
all
the children but "Minnie" in
the Polk Co., GA census. One of John Thomas
and Georgia's sons, Eugene, left home at about
16 because he did not like farming. He later
married and
had 3 daughters. He then started living with
a
Nell Irvin Darswell and had 10 children with
her. I need the names
of the first wife and 3 daughters, if you have
it. Thank you, in advance, for any help you
can provide. 8/28/06

I have been researching my Austin

was William Austin who married Annie Jane
Knight.
While going back through the census I have
found that in 1860 he was listed as
William Farris who lived with Joseph & Elizabeth
Austin. Sometime prior to the 1870 census
he (and his brother Alvis) had their last
name changed to Austin. I would like
to communicate with anyone who can explain
the Farris / Austin connection as this appears
in several places in Tennessee. 7/5/06
