Searching for the name of a funeral home that would have been located in Defiance, Ohio in the 1950's. I think it might have been a family owned/operated business. The son might possibly have married a cousin of my father's. If I could locate the surname of the owners, I might be able to find a missing piece of my genealogical puzzle! Any information greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Searching for relations of the TINNEY, TROWBRIDGE, CAVERHILL lines. Addie TINNEY was born supposedly in Ohio in 1850 to John and Betsy TINNEY. This may not be her birth parents however, as I'm told Addie was adopted. The other surname given to me was TROWBRIDGE, but I don't know which is her birth name and which is adopted. She has a possible sister Mary TINNEY who married William CAVERHILL. A postcard from Defiance, Ohio in 1908 shows Addie is tending a sick sister there. The Auglaize ? and Maumee? Rivers are mentioned, so I imagine the sister lived near them. Would appreciate any info.
