On This Day in Family History - June 28

 Marcus Elmer Treat was born 28 June 1874

Marcus Treat was my great-grandfather. He was married to Massie Parker Treat.

Marcus and Massie were both born in Ohio, but moved their family to Michigan in 1916. At the time of the move, they had four children - Ray (age 18), John (16), Christie (12), and Madge (9).  (That's why most of the Treat relatives were still in Ohio when I was growing up, except for my grandmother and her sister and brothers.)
