  	Need to verify date of marriage to determine if Ann is the mother of all the children listed on the 1850 and 1860 census, or if some might have been Williams by a prior marriage. It appears all children born after the 1850 census are hers. Obtained a copy of the divorce file from Ionia County. It was very sketchy.
