I'm forward the Obituary for Lysa Jane Barr wife of Moses Sloan (Sloane),
the copy of this came from Ada Mae Thompson (nee Ferris).
In a couple family records the surname is noted "O'Sloane", however the "O"
was dropped when Mose and Jane came to North America.
This obituary of Lysa Jane nee Barr Sloan notes that all of her children
were alive as of July of 1915, I do not know what paper the obituary came
from, assuming the Cheboygan or the local Harrisville paper if there was
one.
