You can read about Belle Lamunion, 1864-1848, and her amazing box of family memories here. Belle married Henry H Fellows, 1858-1905 in 1879 in Ashland Township, Newaygo County, Michigan. Read about this series of posts, regarding items in a box originally owned by Belle (Lamunion) Fellows Tinker here. The cast of characters is located here. And, there is an accounting of people about whom I have little information here.
When I took Belle’s Box to a reunion, several people took cards that were connected to their direct ancestors, and I am glad. I did take photos of as many of them as I could before they disappeared. This group of posts are those that I did get photos of.

Dear Mother and
Charley how are you

near gone. look
for you every day.
From
Eunice
Charlie Tinker was Belle’s second husband. Eunice was a daughter of Belle and her first husband, Henry H. Fellows. My research shows that the couple went down to Paris, south of their home in Wexford county and worked in road construction in the winter. Eunice probably expected them home to start working on the fields in preparation for planting.
