  		Legate Genealogy From the Zentmyer Collection. Mailed by Joseph Brutsche b.1844 to 'Mrs. M. A. Brutsche' (his wife), in Pinconning, Michigan in 1899. (we have the envelope) May Augusta (LeGate) Brutsche was visiting her father, Sidney LeGate, who had moved to Pinconning with his second wife Catherine Turner. It is not clear why Joseph needed to send her own genealogy to her in Michigan, unless perhaps she had forgotten to bring it.
