Description

For your consideration I have family archive of the Thorpes, Strudy, Miller and Fosdick families all intertwined with one another. There are genealogical records and ephemera related to the families. The Thorpe and Sturdy families make up the center core while the other families spawn off their trees. Beverly Sturdy seems to be the caretaker of all this entire archive. She is represented in photos and documents including her school days report cards from Adair County, Iowa during the heart of the Great Depression in the 1930’s. Towns and places that include family records or cemetery plot research include Hitt, Illinois in LaSalle, County and Adair County in the state of Iowa. The Thorpe family appears to have the Native American connection as shown in the photographs provided. I have provided many photographs for your viewing.
