This unusual affidavit was found in the microfilmed County death records for 1899-1911:
My grandfather was Joseph Carver who was married three times. First wife and my
grandmother was Sarah Curtiss. Second wife was Cynthia Parmalee. Third wife was Sarah
Weaver. My father and oldest son of Joseph Carver was Henry Carver of Lee Twp., northeast
of Marshall, Michigan.
His children besides myself include Pearl Carver, Bertha Carver and Isaac Glenn Carver. I
have known personally and conversed with my grandfather Joseph Carver and his half-brother
Elizur Carver, also of Lee twp. Elizur Carver was the
father of John Carver, Cyrus Carver, and Mary Carver who of course were cousins of my
father Henry Carver. I was twenty-two years when Elizur Carver died in 1897. I was
thirty-one years when my grandfather Joseph Carver died in 1906.
