Blair Waite's Page

Thank you for the link, I don't have a membership but my sister does so I'll forward it to her.
Do you belong the the Geni site? That's the only place I have a tree posted so far. Yea, that is too wild, not connected so far but seems Blair goes with Waite eh?

ok, here's what i've got.
Samuel Holt b.12-17-1832 Oldham England, d. 6-1-1913 Sugar Hill, Jefferson County, Pa.
His son Robert b. 2-12-1881 Sugar Hill, Jefferson County, Pa.
d. 12-26-1949 DuBois, Pa.
Roberts daughter: Mary Holt b.9-30-1904 d. 5-26-1968 (no location given)
She married Edson Waite on 8-20-1924 (no location)
Edson Waite b. 11-12-1895 (no location) d. 3-3- 1975 DuBois, Pa.
Son of Hiram and Viola (Kline) Waite
Children of Edson and Mary:
Harold, Arlie, Berna, Ruth, Iva, James, Connie and Edson

I got this information while researching my Holt line from the great grand daughter of Robert. My family stems from Samuel Holts son Matthew.

Hi Blair,
I have 15 Waites in my family line, connected to the Holt line from PA. I'm interested to see if there is a connection. The Waite name is married into the Holt family so I'm not a direct decendant of them (I think). I need to look to see where the name first comes up.

Hello Blair , I think the women you were looking for is a Theresa Smith, tesmith@rol.ca- Corkery/Smith- posted on Ancestry.com

I hope this helps Donna :)
