Polly Ann WEBSTER - is my 3rd great-grandaunt.  According to family documents, she was born on 15 September 1830 in Michigan and died on 12 March 1910 in Michigan.  I actually have a letter somewhere written by her (to her sister Sarah, I think, can't remember for sure) that I hope to transcribed sometime soon.

John Francis CAHILL - My paternal grandfather, John, was born on 12 June 1922 in Aurora, Illinois.  He died when I was seven-years-old on September 16, 1984.  Much of my research lately has been focused on him and his time in WWII.  [1]

Charles STOFFEL - According to my grandmother's handwritten notes, Charles, my great-great-grandfather was born on 16 September 1855 in Frankfort, Germany.
