I accidentally found your post. I may be able to help. My mother was Irene eudora Sturgeon born to Thomas chesterSturgeon and flossie muriel shepard in Cedar Rapids Iowa. The old child kathyrn died in infancy. James Francis eugend Sturgeon wass the oldest Brother, then my mom. Thomas chester Sturgeon jr ws the youngest.
Pam, I read gave you some informaition. She is my cousin who is a few months older than I. My birth name was nancy Rene' bakehouse.
There used to be large Sturgeon reunions in Illnois.
My father passed asway recently and my sisters are shorting throew pictures that include many Sturgeon photos- old ones!
We used to have a several hundred year old family bible. I believe it burnt in a fire. I don't kno wif you know that two Sturgeon brothers were kicked out of Wales of being naughty. My late sister Kathryn found the rocrds of the brotheres landing in James town very early in american or new world history. the story passsed on to me was that they nealy died. Had to live in trees because they didn't know how to surve. the peopel native to this land around what the english named jamestown rescued the boys. the chief was phohaton(misspelled) the father of the famous Pochohauntus. the boys married into that tribe and were well cared for. Look up hte Jamestown shup records and your will find the Sturgeon boys.
later when thier children's boy got older they were so roudy they got kicked out of Illinois and went to Ca.You should find some 1800 records in Ca. We don't know what happened to athryn research afet she died. We are looking inot it. ithink if y=we find it you will enjoy it.

Hi Tina. My Uncle in Washington, Indiana where I grew up states that our family descends from Cherokee. It's from the Cochran side of the family in Southern Indiana. I do hope that some one can assist as it's a very difficult process to find and prove. Where does your family originate from? I wish you luck.

tsturgeon66 — 2012-03-27 03:31:34Z

Hi, not sure if you still look into this, but my grandmother was Verna Sturgeon and her and Edgar(my g'pa) had more than two children. Vera Sturgeon was my mom who passed in 1998. I am Native but from a different tribe. However we (my sibs) have been told of other native blood in us, but still not sure which tribe to be exact.
Hope to hear back

MARSHALL- Consuelo Lucille Marshall, 102, a longtime resident of Pasadena and Arcadia, CA passed away peacefully on June 25, 2011 from natural causes. Consuelo Lucille Sturgeon (Connie, as she was known by everyone) was born on August 12, 1908 in Chicago, IL, the eldest daughter of Guy Fessenden Sturgeon and Ethel May Wain. Consuelo attended the University of California at Los Angeles where she met her husband. She married John Brian Marshall on December 12, 1930. They were married for 62 years. She worked for Bank of America for over 17 years and volunteered at the United Nations for over 11 years. Like her mother, she had a passion for music and loved to play the piano and the organ. She also had a passion for genealogy and was very proud to be the eleventh descendent of William Bradford, the former governor of Massachusetts and a leader of the English settlers who arrived to begin the Plymouth Colony via the Mayflower. She was a member of the Colonial Dames Society, the Daughters of the American Revolution and the Mayflower Society. She is survived by her son, Norman Sturgeon Marshall, daughter-in-law Marilyn Matter Marshall and her son-in-law Wayne James Pollard. She is also survived by her grandchildren Kimberly Ann Johnson, Bradford Wayne Pollard, Scott Charles Marshall and Mary Catherine Marshall Huff, and by her great grandchildren Steven James Johnson, Matthew Alan Johnson, Hillary Lynne Huff and Thomas William Huff. She is predeceased by her sister, Ruthe Agnes Fletcher, husband John Brian Marshall, and daughter Alyce Ruth Pollard. A plaque in memory of Connie has been placed at the Mountain View Cemetery in Altadena, CA. Memorial services will be held privately with family members.

Yes, they did indeed settle in Canada. Their children were born in England (my great grandmother in 1900). They had to have came to Canada before 1914. There is a photo of my great grandmother in her fathers uniform here in Canada, at about 14-15 years old...

Harry William Sturgeon and Emily Wilson

teprat1 — 2011-06-14 07:38:35Z

Looking for more information on Emily Wilson born Abt. 1872 in Shildon, Durham, England.
She married Harry William Sturgeon born 18 Aug 1871 in Suffolk, England.
Harry appears to have served in the army for quite some time, on his WW1 papers it says 17 years in the Imperial service and in the 100th Winnepeg Grenadiers. My family sais that he served in the Boer war...? I ordered his papers but they will take a month, so any info on the two would be great.
Thank you, Ty

Hey Jeff. My pleasure. Send me what information, birth/death you have on Joseph Sturgeon and possibly his family and/or ancestors. We do have Sturgeon's that entered Canada and also a great deal that lived in Connecticut. You may email me at larrydsturgeon@hotmail.com. Thanks. Larry Dean Sturgeon

Re: Sturgeon-Native American

vbcc121 — 2011-05-09 12:14:46Z

Thank you very much. I appreciate the reply. I need to check with the town that Joseph lived in to see if they have any records so I can find out who his parent were.

Best of luck with your tree and thanks again.

Re: Sturgeon-Native American

momspeople — 2011-05-09 04:28:50Z

Hi Jeff.

My Ancestry Line of the Sturgeon's entered America in the mid 1700's and entered through Philadelphia. They scattered throughout the New England States and my Ancestry Line lived in Dauphin County Pennsylvania. They also moved to Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana. My Line starts with Samuel Sturgeon (Propositus), 1680-1740, born in Ireland and passed in Lower Paxton Twp., Dauphin, Pennsylvania. Good luck. Larry Dean Sturgeon

Re: Sturgeon-Native American

vbcc121 — 2011-05-09 04:05:09Z

Hello, my nmae is Jeffrey Sturgeon. I reside in Connecticut and I was interested in finding out if any of the Sturgeon's from your area moved east to New England. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Jeff

Hi Lori
Matt Gorsuch here. William Henry Sturgeon and Julia Triplet are also the parents of my grandmother Fern Sturgeon Gorsuch. The picture you have of Edgar may have my grand mother too. If you have anything you could share I would be so grateful.
My mom "Audery" told me that she too had seen pictures of Indian relatives of the Sturgeons.

Re: Simpson Sturgeon

JerrySturgeon — 2011-04-06 00:44:24Z

Simpson V. Sturgeon (1833-1916) and Zelda Stripe were friends. You might say they were very good friends because when Selda died she left her entire estate to him. Real estate valued ar $4500.00 and personal property valued at $500.00. Zelda designated Simpson as the executor of her estate. See "Lancaster Daily Eagle", Page #1, Col. #5, dated 05 JAN 1915. Hope this helps. Simpson V. Sturgeon was never married.

Re: James & John Sturgeon of Greenbrier Co. VAarea changes

CathyLynHarrison — 2011-03-12 05:22:40Z

My Father was Robert Lowell Sturgeon, Sr.; his Father was Roy Allen (or Alen, Allan, Alan) Sturgeon, b. Oct. 10, 1894, who was a river boat captain on the Kanawah River. someone in the family has a newspaper article noting him as such. We understand his Father was Lewis Kosuth Sturgeon, b. May 3, 1852, Mother--Nancy Jane Genevieve Mitchell; his Father was John Sturgeon, b. 176?, of Sewell Mountain, Fayette County, WVA. This is as far as I have gotten, I believe. So, if the area name changed, the folks were in the area with the latter name, then they could be related to your James and John?

Re: Sturgeon-Native American

momspeople — 2011-03-09 19:33:55Z

If you don't mind, contact me at larrydsturgeon@hotmail.com and send me your email address. I will personally contact the Sturgeon's in Iowa, Colorado and Oklahoma so you can converse with them and your family. Thanks! I should have moved your request to a different Sturgeon Board, but, I'm up to my neck in paperwork on my family history. :>) The one we're on is for research for Sturgeon Indian ancestry. No biggie.... Have a great day. Larry Dean Sturgeon / Moderator

Re: Sturgeon-Native American

darlene9669 — 2011-03-09 19:01:02Z

Thanks Larry. I don't have a Facebook page. The Myrtle Sturgeon, 13, is my grandmother. The story we were always told abt Miles was that he was a traveling circuit preacher, but we know nothing else abt him. I have the 1910 OK Census with him living with his oldest son and with Myrtle, his only daughter. He died in 1923 in Stigler, OK.

Re: Sturgeon-Native American

momspeople — 2011-03-08 21:14:55Z

Thank you. Appreciate the response. If you have a Facebook page look up Sherry Clark, of Tulsa, Oklahoma and also Susan Sturgeon Williams of Colorado, they are sisters. They are from the Iowa and Oklahoma Sturgeon's and may be able to assist. They are two great ladies. I have found info on a Miles Sturgeon via Ancestry.com born in Kentucky, living with the Ungers in Camp Creek, Pike, Ohio as a farmers hand at the age of 19. In 1910 widowed at the age of 59 and living in Stigler Ward 1, Haskell, Oklahoma with Arthur,26, Ellen, 25, Lavona, 3
and Myrtle Sturgeon, 13. If you need further assistance with Miles please let me know. Larry Dean Sturgeon, Formally: Washington, Daviess, Indiana, (Springhill, Hernando, Florida.)

Larry, both "fiverows" and myself are looking for info on a Miles Sturgeon b 1851 in KY and d 1923 in OK. We have been told that he was a circuit riding preacher (AR, OK and LA) but we are not sure of any of this--he was our grt grandfather.

Re: Sturgeon-Native American

momspeople — 2011-03-08 15:45:01Z

Good morning.
The Board sends a response, (email), to all who have an interest in researching the Sturgeon ancestry. Is there a particular individual that you would like a response from concerning brothers of Great Grandfathers? If so, please post another meassage and let us know. Hope this finds you well and good luck. Have a great day. Larry Dean Sturgeon

Re: Sturgeon-Native American

fiverows — 2011-03-07 21:17:15Z

This is very interesting. I am at a real stand still with my "Miles Sturgeon" at this point. I think I might start looking in a different direction. Did your great grandfather have brothers?

Re: Sturgeon-Native American

heathermle — 2011-02-26 07:19:26Z

Hi there, I realize this post is a few years old but thought i'd give it a shot anyways, I'm trying to track my family history. From what I know Sturgeon is the name given to my great grandfather by the government at some point, he was Chief Raincloud, was Ojiway, from Ontario Canada, travelled to the states as a preacher. Any of this sound familiar?
