I am posting information gleaned from land records in the areas where our family’s ancestors resided. You can read more about this project in the overview . This group pertain to Papa’s Fellows ancestors who resided in Newaygo County, Michigan.

The location of this land is illustrated by the blue outline on the Grant Township map from the old Newaygo County Atlas1 . The red outline shows land owned by Joel B. Fellows. When I transcribed the deed, I did not know which Henry Fellows had purchased this land, I now know the original purchase was made by Henry H. Fellows ( b. ca 1839). His nephew was only 13 in 1873, too young to have purchased the land.
