Jennie was a foster care mother to several little folks after she stopped working at Midwest Abrasive. When she got older, her mind went bad and she collected cats, treating them as replacements for the little kids she used to take care of.

Menominee, Dunne Co., 4 Aug 1906
My Darling Katie,
I am thinking of you all the time could I see you and am so lonesome. I am so lame can hardly get around sometimes. Pa is complaining with the rumatism but I guess it is so much hard work. I have over 60 little chicks this summer and have late garden. The frost cut all but peas and had to plant over all my cucumbers, beans and tomatoes. It makes them late. how does Bedent get along, do you hear from him and wish you would tell him if you see him to write to us and felt bad that I could not have seen him when I was out there. Pearl she never writes to me. Tomma say he is coming out on a visit this fall him and his wife and children. I am looking for Goldie to come out. I haven't seen her for a month. I wish you would write often. I think you forget all about us.
My hads cramp and can't write plain.
Mother

| 12. | Bedent Baird Munro was born on 21 Feb 1804 in Schoharie, Schoharie Co., New York, USA (son of Solomon Munro and Sarah Baird); died on 13 Jul 1871 in Chesaning, Saginaw Co., Michigan, USA. Notes:
Bedent was an industrious, careful farmer and a prudent man. He brought some choice horses with him from Canada.
He was a good husband and careful father, setting a good example before his children. He brought them up to love and respect the Christian religion. He was a great church worker and served as deacon of the Baptist Church of Southfield most of his life.
He had a pleasing manner and was noted among his neighbors as a peace maker, settling many of their disputes. he made a home for several needy children and also was ever ready to help the poor. He took care of his mother by her request, in her last years.
He was an abolitionist. His sympathy and help was ever with the poor slave. One slave he found in Detroit and brought him home with him and changed his name from Adam Bogus to Adam Clark. The slave had light hair and blue eyes and was as fair as a free man. You could not have told he was a slave by looks. When his old master came to Bedent's home after him, Bedent helped the slave to escape.
