- Seeking info. regarding Clifford NICHOLS/NICHOLLS,
born about 1892 to William Henry NICHOLS/NICHOLLS and
Lillie E. GOAR. His parents eventually divorced while he
was still very young. His mother remarried to a man
named RICKETTS and moved back to Indiana. Clifford was
married and had at least one daughter. He may have
worked as a custodian or in a position with the railroad
in Grand Forks, Grand Forks Co., MN. (Possibly from the
1920s - 1950s?) He often visited relatives in Argyle and
Stephen, Marshall Co., MN. Would anyone have access to a
city directory for Grand Forks or any census records
such as 1920? Any info. is appreciated! THANKS!

- These people lived in Grand Forks, North Dakota and
the surrounding area. Some of the "Cree" Indians may
have been from across the border into Canada. Some of
the family was from Toronto, Canada. Please contact me

- My grandparents were married in Bachelor Grove, Grand
Forks County, on January 12, 1886. My grandfather, Isaac
Stewart, was from Benson County. My grandmother,
Antoinette Staples was a teacher in Grand Forks prior to
her marriage. This information has been passed down to
me by my mother, however, I have not been able to locate
where Bachelor Grove is in Grand Fork County. If you
have any information on this area I would appreciate
hearing from you..
- posted by Jon Raymond on Wednesday,

- Bachelors Grove is a new one to me. I would suggest
contacting Sandy Slater at slater@plains.nodak.edu
(University of ND in GF). She is always very helpful and
could probably find that information. Another possible
resource would be the Myra Museum in GF. Do you know the
name of the church? If either of them died in ND, you
might be able to order death certificates online..

STEWART posted by Diane Maxwell on Thursday,

- Thanks for suggesting I e-mail Sandy. In talking to
my mother, she has a copy of the wedding from a N.D.
newspaper which said they were married in Bachelor Grove
but the name of the newspaper is not on the copy. Mom is
very adement that it is in Grand Fork County somewhere.
My grandparents moved to Idaho in the late '30's..

MCGUIRE posted by Charles McGuire on Monday,

- I have been seeking information on my grandfather
John McGuire who farmed at Manvel North Dakota from 1890
until 1905. Also his daughter Mary Ann Harvey who
married William M. Harvey I believe in Grand Forks North
Dakota. My grandfather came west to homestead in 1889 at
Manvel. I have been unable to find any information on
this McGuire family. I thought perhaps they would be on
the 1900 Grand Forks County census John McGuire b. 1828
Ireland Bridget McGuire b. 1840 Ireland Michael Henry
McGuire b. 1858 Mitchell Ontario Canada Charles Thomas
McGuire b. 1862 Mitchell Ontario Mary McGuire { Wife of
Charles} William M. Harvey b. 1853 Ontario Canada Alfred
Harvey Lloyd Harvey John Harvey Matthew Sylvester Harvey
Rose Harvey Adella { Della} Harvey James McGuire b. 1867
Grand Rapids Michigan Daniel McGuire b. 1868 Grand
Rapids Michigan Edward McGuire b. 1871 Grand Rapids
Michigan Joseph McGuire b. 1874 grand Rapids Michigan.
If some one could look these people up on the 1900
census it would be much appreciated or tell me where I
might gey a copy of the Grand Forks County 1900 census.
Thank you.

(North Africa) during WWII. Would like to confirm the
Date of Death for Orris M. Hayne (Army Serial Number 37
277 326) who was serving as a private with Company "B" -
133rd Infantry - 34th Division during the 2nd Battle of
Fondouk, Tunisia (on or about 09-Apr-1943). It is
believed that Hayne's body was returned to the U.S.
after the war (1946 - 1949) and may have been reburied
in Grand Forks county. This information will be used to
