The Gillett - Cadwell Family

Farmers Delivering Goods to Railroad in Paw Paw, MI

The early Michigan Gillett family were farmers. Isabella's grandfather is William Gillett. William's father moved from New York state to "Canada West", now province of Ontario, for about 10 years. William Gillett was born in 1848 in Oxford county and what is now known as the province of Ontario, Canada.

William Gillett married Maria Cadwell (born 1850) on February 23, 1866 in Van Buren County. I believe this is her Cadwell family. Father Calvin Cadwell was also listed in the 1840 Van Buren County census.
