I am working on putting my families history together. Samuel McKown is my great-grandfather. His parents were supposedly killed in an accident, I think auto in 1879. Samuel and William were put in the Sisters of Charity Orphanage in Toledo. Alice was adopted by the D. W. (D.H.?) Hughes family of Kansas.

I have found Alice's family and now working on William's.

I think I have found William's family. Does this information sound familiar to anybody.

Info - I think this is Samuel's brother William.
