I am a descendant of her son James who traveled with his mother. Other than that I know very little about his family from England. His daughter, Verna was my great grandmother. I have been looking at family trees in the Lancashire area and it seems there were two John “A” Kelseys that, 1.) lived around the same time which have been muddled together, or 2.) John had started another family after Eliza left with the children. This second could be a possibility since you mentioned their separation.Jesse C Marshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13009406052919974518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7502312000087595701.post-70005454954969443262014-01-07T20:21:15.287-08:002014-01-07T20:21:15.287-08:00Yes, we are most definitely related. Rolph and Ver...Yes, we are most definitely related. Rolph and Verna Sypher Kelsey were also cousins, since Verna's grandfather, Asa Mahan Sypher was Obadiah's brother. Obadiah and Asa were my great-grandmother's uncles.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06635872318787241481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7502312000087595701.post-60924395951276949252013-09-28T06:19:12.771-07:002013-09-28T06:19:12.771-07:00If the same person, then we're related
Obidiah...If the same person, then we're related<br />Obidiah Lunn Sypher (1833-1907) is the grandfather of husband (Rolph Thayer Marsh) of my 2nd cousin twice removed (Verna Sypher Kelsey). Verna's grandmother (Eliza Lingard (Kelsey) came over from England in 1885 with her 3 children after leaving her husband (John Austin Kelsey)<br /><br />Michael (england)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7502312000087595701.post-90836735122199134842012-09-11T16:48:27.947-07:002012-09-11T16:48:27.947-07:00Obadiah Sypher was my gr-gr-grandmother's brot...Obadiah Sypher was my gr-gr-grandmother's brother.

But I guess Batman needs something to climb up! :-)<br /><br />Wondering if there is just as interesting history with the 5 story #597 Broadway as it looks to be quite a handsome building as well with an impressive cornice.MjHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01695668504463342682noreply@blogger.com
