Bill,
Yes, I am a direct descendant.My great, great grandmother was Edith Bullen, which was Joseph's granddaughter through his son Francis.Francis married Hannah Bush, who is the mother of Seraph (f), Edith (f) and Francis (m).I do not know if they had any other children.Francis died at the age of 38 of what we do not know.We have pictures of Seraph and Edith, in fact, we have a picture of "Aunt Serph" holding my grandfather as a baby and then another one of her holding my mom as a baby.
Edith married William Jesse Merryman.My family grew up in Northville but my sister and I, who are the last surviving members of our family, now live in Utah.My sister and I made a trip back there to the Grand Rapids area two years ago to look up some family history and we got pictures of the Merrymans and Bullens in the Brooklawn Cemetary.Thank you so much for responding so quickly.And thanks for the help with this side of the family.Is there any info on Joseph's parents?Look forward to corresponding with you again.Your "cousin" many times removed, Barbara
