  Rsrch. Note	From : Margaret Bobertz / Wm F. Tooley Reply-To : Sent : December 20, 2004 1:35:29 PM To : , Subject : Bear Family Family Group Sheet for Family F4159 I just wanted to be able to thank you for the wonderful site and information. I also wanted to be able to give you some followup information on George & Susannah Bear, at least in part. Your website has provided the solution to a huge family mystery, because of some of the kids of George and Susan being adopted out of the family, presumably after the death of their mother. Their daughter Catherine Bear's 2nd marriage certificate lists her father as Georgia Bear, otherwise we wouldn't have had a clue that she connected to this family. The site mentioned that Susan died near Fisher's Mills. Is there a cemetery record or what is the source of the information? In 1850, the Bear family and Susan's parent's have moved to Wisconsin. 1850 WI Sheboygan George Bare32Lower CanadaFisherman Susan30Lower Canada Elizabeth5Lower Canada Ann3Lower Canada Martha1Wisconsin Henry Oberholzen70?PALock maker Elizabeth57PA Joseph38CanadaFisherman By 1860, Susan has died (your site says in Canada),. 1860 WI George Bear Omro, Winnebago, WI 41 1818 Canada Male Elisabeth Bear Omro, Winnebago, WI 14 1845 Canada Female Martha Bear Omro, Winnebago, WI 10 1849 Wisconsin Female Henry Bear Omro, Winnebago, WI 4 1855 Wisconsin Male Henry Oberholtzer Omro, Winnebago, WI 75 1784 Pennsylvania Male Elisabeth Oberholtzer Omro, Winnebago, WI 67 1792 Pennsylvania Female Two younger children are farmed out to a neighbor. 1860 WI Joseph Starr Omro, Winnebago, WI 37 1822 England Male Rebecca Starr Omro, Winnebago, WI 37 1822 England Female Joel Bair Omro, Winnebago, WI 8 1851 Wisconsin Male Catharine Bair Omro, Winnebago, WI 6 1853 Wisconsin Female George Simpson Omro, Winnebago, WI 21 1838 England Male By 1870, the two childen are still part of the Starr household. 1870 WI Omro Starr, Joseph48England Rebecca48England Joel18WI Catherine16WI By 1880, Catherine (Kate) has been married and is now widowed with a young daughter.
