To the children of Kathleen, I wish to extend my sincere Sympathy. I'm very sorry to say I never met Kat but wish we could have made connection. "Doc", your Father was a 1st cousin to my Father, Thomas E. Wilson of Crewe, therefore I am your 2nd cousin. If any of you have researched the Belcher family I would very much like to be in touch. I have family history back to our Great,great grandfather, and will be glad to share. Again I would like to express sadness for your great loss. Sincerely,
