Quote from 2nd email:, dated: April 26, 2002,

"I have not looked into the family of George Morris as he would be my step-great grandfather. I have been concentrating on my grandfather, Herbert Grose, and his parents. I believe George Morris lived in North Dakota and met Minnie after she moved here to live with her parents. One note of interest though, George and Minnie had a daughter they named Bessie. "

Subject: SUTTON FAMILY

Hello,

I just came across your website regarding Thaddeus and Martha Sutton. I found it very interesting and I am hoping to find a link. Very little was known about my maternal grandfather's family. I have just recently received the social security applications of my grandfather and his mother in hopes of getting some information.

Now, this is the part that is confusing!

My grandfather's name was Herbert Raymond Grose. On his application he listed his mother's maiden name as Minnie Sutton. Minnie had been married to Fred Raymond Grose. My grandfather and his mother listed Salem, West Virginia as their birthplace.

Fred Grose died when my grandfather was approximately 3 months old. Minnie then moved with her infant son to North Dakota to live with her parents. She then married a man named George Morris.

On Minnie's social security application, dated May 26, 1966, she uses the name Minnie Morris. Her father is listed as Thatius Morris and her mother is listed as Martha Sutton of Salem, West Virginia.

After looking at your website, I am wondering if the person who typed up the application was in error putting Thatius' last name as Morris because that was Minnie's current last name. {cls-a very smart guess}

I do have Minnie's birth date listed as February 26, 1880.

A copy of Fred Grose and Minnie's marriage certificate is being mailed to me now, and perhaps that will give me more information.

Do you know when Thaddeus moved to North Dakota? You noted they lived in Garrison, McLean County. My grandfather Herbert also was raised in Garrison and met his wife there.

I haven't been working on my family tree that long so I could be way off base here, but I just thought some of the facts were so similar that I would email you. I do know that first thing Friday I will be ordering a copy of Minnie's death certificate in hopes of confirming her parents' names!
