Theodore Haney/ Edith Bishop

Last week I went to work on proving the hand written tree that has come down to me through my Grandparents, Karl and Edna Bishop. Karl's sister Blondene and Nellie had been the originator of the tree, with the last entry in 1953. I don't know when they started the work on the tree, however the first entry on the tree is Johnnan Gerard H. Bischoff and his arrival in 1839, Havana, IL.

I started at the bottom of the tree with the information regarding Theodore and Edith. I proved what information I had on them. I discovered Theodore had two other sons, by a previous marriage. I was able to prove their relationship and found them to be about the age of Edith when she married Theodore. Edith and Paul had only one son Paul, who had three children, Donald, James and Judith. I am now working on Donald having completed working on Paul. The hand written tree states that he liked swimming, scouting and Baseball,and was born Feb 1940. I found that he lived in Sacramento, CA. And now, back to the research.
