I am trying to identify the parents of Mary E. Shreck. born in Virginia about 1827 and dies in Saline County Kansas 8 July 1886. She is buried in Chenwork Brown Cemetery, Ness Co. Kansas. She was married to John Kitterman (1823-1896) on 9 Jan 1845 in Harrison County, Indiana. Mary Shreck died of Huntington's Disease. Prior to her marriage to John Kitterman there is no Huntington's Disease in the Kitterman family. Consequently, either Mary's father [unknown Shreck] or her mother [Catherine Unknown] must have had the disease.
One source indicates her parents might be George Shreck and Sarah Detrick married in Rockingham Co. on 15 December 1831.
However, in the 1850 Census for Harrison Co., Indiana Catherine Shreck is living with John & Mary. I believe her mother's name is Catherine.
I live in Lambton County Ontario. What proof do you have that Albert Edward Hall was possibly born here? Do you have anything else. I can see if there is anything here but need a bit more to go on.
A message for LeAnn Weller. I am descended from the Shrack family. My g.grandfather, grandfather, mother and aunt all did with Huntington's disease. I am trying to trace the origins of this as well. So far I've not seen any connections in our families except that, but it is a big coincidence, plus Shrack being a variation of Shrack.
