PJ: Last night I ran across of a piece of information that may be of interest
for you although it is way out in left field - but it did have some interesting
components. I was searching in California Death Records for my Mackinder clan,
and found a death of a Iva Mae Mackinder b. 8/10/1904, whose mother's surname
name was MORRIS, father's surname was LOSEY, and they were from MICHIGAN (no
county given). This may have no relation to your man at all, but I also have
CANFIELD lineage and know they came from Michigan before immigrating to Iowa.
Mine came from the Three Rivers, St. Lawrence County area, although there are
other Canfields in Michigan of course. My Canfield ancestor married a McKinder
after coming to Iowa. My point? Perhaps another MORRIS girl/sister married a
CANFIELD in Michigan and you got the GEORGE MORRIS CANFIELD you are looking
for. Just a bare thread here. Good hunting. Sandy

That is his name on his death certificate.. We do NOT know where he

born.
He died in Charles Mix Co., (Wagner) South Dakota on 6/29/1939.
The neighbor gave info to hospital at that time and said that he had lived
in the town for 20 years and that he was from Macon, Michigan. Be darned if
we can find the clue, to who his parents were. We have been told that he
had 7 sisters, and NO brothers.. but of course brothers could have died
early on. So that is it , in a nut shell... PJ Canfield
BD was supposed to be: 7/11/1894
The closest that I get to that is 7/11/1899 and it is listed: George Wesley
