Note: In a letter that I have from Delmer, he informed me of a DAVES that is buried at Boothill in Tombstone, Arizona. Apparently most of the others buried there were hung or shot, but this DAVES died of natural causes. Here is a homepage which lists persons buried at Boothill. This DAVES is listed.

The LEE Family
Here is how I'm related to the LEE Family.
My Grandfather, Robert Lee Daves married my Grandmother, NANCY ELIZABETH LEE. She was born Jan. 17, 1892 and came from Clarksville, Ark.
If you are related to Nancy Elizabeth Lee, then we are probably related and I would like you to contact me. My email address is: jeda@umich.edu

I have a book titled "The Schurmann Family in Germany and America" by Richard & Shirley Sherman. This book concerns my ancestors and their descendants. It seems, according to the book, that the patriarch of the family was a JOHANNES BASTIAN HEINRICH SCHURMANN. Johannes was born 1637 in Westkilver, Germany and died in Germany. All those listed in the book seem to be related by birth or by marriage.

Family (Patzer Family) of Grandmother Bushman's Father
Click here to see window above altar at Bethlehem Lutheran Church in Pemberville, Ohio. The inscription in the window reads: "IN MEMORY OF J.F. BUSHMAN, SR."
I think J.F. BUSHMAN, SR. was the patriarch of our BUSHMAN clan.
NOTE to PATZER clan members:
If you are related to the PATZERS from Grove City (near Columbus), Ohio, then we are most likely related.
Persons from the BUSHMAN & PATZER clans
NOTE TO BUSHMANS AND PATZERS WHO ARE DEFINITELY RELATED TO ME
There is a Meier Music Window in the Chapel of the Resurrection on the campus of Valparaiso University in Indiana. That window is apparently named after a person named Meier and according to my mother there was a relative by that name and that is the person the window was named after. Apparently when she was a kid that relative would play on the piano some times. I think mother told me how that Meier was related, through my grandmother or my grandfather, but I forgot.
