A cousin who wants to join the DAR recently traded some information with me. At last I know that Matilda G. Teter McKenzie and Edith T. Teter Pancake, found in Ross County, Ohio marriage records, were daughters of Samuel D. Teter and Henrietta Given. Both women's death certificates named their parents.
A few months ago I would only attach a FamilySearch historical record to the principal individual, and only tag the date and place it documented. Then, remembering the joy of connecting Samuel D. Teter to his parents George and Christiana Davis Teter through land partitions, I began attaching the historical records to everyone mentioned, documenting relationships as well as events.
Names I'm still reluctant to tag, changeable as they are in the historical records. Edith Pancake's first known son was either Rolle, Rollins, or Roland. Her second was Darrel or Dorrel, and her third was Forest or Forrest G. G for Grant, not Gump. I trust the names on the World War I draft registrations when I can find them; that's one place where the middle name was unabbreviated.
I've attached all the hints for four children and six grandchildren. FamilySearch wants me to look for more, but I think ten Pancakes is enough for one day.
