HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO...
CHARLES MCMILLAN FORD married ELIZABETH RENEW MANLEY 1877

Elizabeth Renew Manley was the first wife of Charles McMillan Ford. Charles' sister Nancy was married to my great-grandfather Charles Thomas. In our family history my dad wrote this about Elizabeth Renew Manley Ford:
Charles' first wife's name Renew was pronounced by the family 'Ra-noo'. She was an artist.
Renew Ford died in 1892 at age 42. 
As far as I can determine, Charles and Renew did not have any children. After her death, Charles married Effie V. Harvey. Effie had a son, Otho Horace, from a previous marriage, whom Charles adopted. Charles and Effie had a son Cleo who died at age 18. Otho Horace Ford had a son, Otho Simeon, who was adopted by Charles and Effie at a young age and raised in their household.
