DUFFIELD, MARY JANE, nee LEWIS B 1860 D 1922 MN.
« on: Sunday 22 April 18 16:04 BST (UK) »
DUFFIELD, MARY JANE, NEE LEWIS
===================

My Great Grandfather,
Captain John Lewis
B 3 Jul 1864 Magheraknock, 1864
D 9 Jun 1933 Belfast, NI.
He married 9 Oct 1890 Lyle Hill Presbyterian Church, Templepatrick, Co Antrim.
 
He was the younger brother of

Mary Jane LEWIS
B 17 Sep1860 Magheraknock, Glassdrummond, Co Down.
D 13 Feb 1922 Garden City, Blue Earth Co, MN, USA.
She married 1878 Belfast
Robert James DUFFIELD aka  James Robert, son of John D.
B 18 Oct 1859 Ballynahinch, Co Down.
D 25 Jun 1938 Mankato, Blue Earth Co, MN.

Their daughter:
Annie Pearl DUFFIELD
B 18 April 1885 Garden City, Blue Earth Co, MN, USA.
D 4 Feb 1972 Little Falls, Morrison Co, MN.

Her granddaughter:
Marianne Kay Wheeler, nee SAUTER married to Walter Rand WHEELER.

I am keen to know details, photos and stories of any other children, grandchildren and great grandchildren of the above Mary Jane DUFFIELD, nee LEWIS.

In return, I'm happy to share family photo, stories and earlier LEWIS ancestry that I have acquired in my research to date.

Additionally, I'm looking for information on any other Lewis children born to Dorothea Blakeley and John Lewis between 1854 and 1868, including their son William Armstrong Lewis b 1859 d 1928 Dublin. Possibly he son John who moved back to Belfast in 1920s.

Any help much appreciated.

Heartfelt thanks, Sandra, for your amazingly prompt and detailed reply.

Unfortunately, I can't find Marianne Kay Wheeler contact details online or in social media.  Do you know how else I might locate her (or other descendants)?

Have you tried - https://www.whitepages.com/

If that is a living person you would have to remove her name - RootsChat has a no living people policy.  :'(

Yes, but I can get access to full details, as all I get is one huge long advert. 

Btw, are you a Rorschach.com volunteer researcher?
