Documentation:
* The beginnings of my research came from the research originally done by Meda Garrigues around 1900 and carried on by Gertrude McMullen Heitmeyer in the 1970s. I obtained a copy of the little booklet Gertrude printed up for a family reunion in around 1975 - then travelled to Dearborn Co., met with Gertrude and filmed the original homestead homesite and many of the graves. My research started from there.
* I originally found the information for Daniel, Samuel and Ella Abby from a book called "Early Dearborn Marriages" that's in the LDS Family History Library. I do not know the call numbers for it. Ella signed her name as 'Abby' on her marriage certificate but she was married by the Reverend Alfred Johnson Cotton and in his book, Cotton's Keepsakes, he lists (among the marriages he performed) Ella McMullen and Ira Tinker. Family lore said she was 'Ella' as well.
