    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.
