Clssification: Obituary
Sumitter note: Several of Richard's ancestors are buried in Three Oaks
Cemetery and just across the State line in the Foster Cemetery in Indiana.
To put the obit in some context, some extracts of Richard's line are listed
below his obit, along with a letter which describes life in pioneer days.
There are several surnames which may be of interest to some members of this
list. The Grapevine Restaurant (It was open and under that name when I
last visited the area in 2000), on Road 1000N (Years ago it was called
Paddock Road) Between LaPorte, IN & Three Oaks, MI is in an old hand hewn
Barn built by Harvey Stanton Paddock, Civil War veteran. I may have posted
some of this before but it may be of use to some newer list members.
