(*Claudia Clark wrote: A
newspaper item dated 7-1-1881 in Hudson MI said Dr Willard Perkins had
received notice of the death of an elder brother in Wisconsin. Another dated
7 15 1894 said that Dr Perkins' brother died in Eldorado IA. The brothers
had not seen each other in over 40 years. Unfortunately, there were no first
names in either. Dr Perkins' obituary in 1919 mentioned that Mr. and Mrs.
Fred George of Fayette OH (maybe IA?) had attended his funeral in Adrian
MI.) Query posted at:
