Thanks Debra. I haven't added much of the information that Les has posted, yet. Still have a lot of work left to do, but my husband and I were making the trip to Tampico, so thought we would bring what we had. Much of the information is from a genealogy chart compiled by Mrs. Archie Waite that was with my father-in-law's belongings.
We also visited TMC and Yorktown Cemetery, found some of the ancestors mentioned in our posts and took photos of gravestones which are posted at findagrave.com if anyone is interested. I added Yorktown Cemetery to findagrave's list of cemteries - didn't recognize any other name for it in their existing list.
The update to the Simeon Brown descendants report is for Benjamin Richards Brown, although he is buried with wife Rhoda (at Yorktown), we believe she is a 2nd wife and that his children were probably with his 1st wife, Deidamia Waite (daughter of Lee Warner Waite & Lydia Stearns). My husband was told he was related to Capt. Seth Warner (I think it's Capt.) through his 5th great-grandmother, Seth's sister Deidamia (Warner) Waite (wife of Barnet Waite). There is also a gravestone at Yorktown Cem. for Lois Brown, sister of Lydia (Brown) Dow, that says Dau. of B. R. & D. Brown. I haven't found any further info for Deidamia Warner or Waite, but have seen Deidamia spelled maaaaany different ways in my searches. :c)
Anyway, if anyone finds an omission or error, please feel free to say so. When I get to it, I'll have to incorporate Les' information.
