I have been working in Family Tree Maker lately. I re-upped for another month at Ancestry.com to travel through their amazing amount of information on line. Just working offline in the program is interesting to me, though. Looking through the list of 1743 names of family members [extensively extended family members; this includes all grandparents of grandparents , as many as I have discovered, as well as siblings of as many as I have discovered, and through them to cousins and 1st cousins and 1st cousins once removed, and so on and so on and including Ray's family and Marty's family, and my siblings spouse's families as much as I have discovered] I find many names repeated.
Please note: in any posts, when I say 'our' I mean my siblings, my generation of the Lilley cousins and myself. I don't know if any of our Lines' cousins are aware of this site but if they are then I am also referring to them when I say 'our' . Any children or grandchildren, etc. can just add another great or two to determine other relationships;0)
Ida is not a name that catches my fancy, but it is surprising how many women named Ida are associated with this family tree.
Ida Belle Bunnell: Zachary Olver's GGGreat aunt through his Dad's Grandmother, Etta Bunnel Olver.
Ida C. Horn: sister of Emma D. Hosler Forry, the mother of Effie Forry Lilley, and our Great Grandmother.
Ida C. Strunk: Paul's father's sister.
Ida Hummel: niece of Emma Hosler Forry (see above)
Ida Israel: mother of Gertrude Israel Cassel Gunther, and Great Grandmother to Diana and David Cassel.
Ida K. Lines: sister to our Great Grandfather, Christian Lines, father of Elmer Ellsworth, and therefore, our Great Aunt.
Ida Kepperling Shellenberger: our 1st cousin 2x removed, the granddaughter of our Great Great Grandparents Abraham and Leah Ressel Kepperling.
Ida Kanady: wife of Edward Kennedy (note the name change in the censuses) son of Thomas Kennedy, brother to Rebecca Kennedy Lilley, our Great Great Grandmother who married Henry W. Lilley, Grandfather of our Papa.
Ida Siegfried: daughter of Daniel P Siegfried, brother of Henry W. Siegfried, the father of our Grandmother, Hattie Siegfried Lines.
Ida Mae Stump: mother of Ida Siegfried, and our Great Great Aunt through marriage to Daniel P. Siegfried, our Grandfather, Henry W. Siegfried's brother.
Ida Rebecca Lilley: Granddaughter of Henry W. Lilley and Rebecca Kennedy Lilley,
daughter of William H. Lilley and Eliza Bobbs Lilley and sister to William Lilley, our Papa.
Fortunately, in my mind, people chose to continue the name Rebecca in our part of the family tree:)
