This past week, three descendants of Reuben Peer Sr. and his wife Margaret Keough (Chio) met in Ogdensburg, New York to visit the Ogdensburg cemetery and the graves of the Chio family, related to Margaret. Pamela is descended from Reuben Peer Jr, Julie from Clarissa Lovina Peer and myself from Lucy Adelaine Peer. Ruth shares our interest in genealogy and has done research with me on the Peer family.
This was the first time we had met Pamela who had put two and two together and proved the connection between Margaret Keough of Elizabethtown Township in Ontario and the Chio family of Ogdensburg. She did this using census records and the information from Clarissa’s Lost But is Found journal entry.
