Guy Curtis

Vital Information

Residence
Millport, Chemung County, New York (implied by daughter's birthplace)

Notes

Belle Curtis Miller's father. Pauline's paternal 2x great-grandfather. Identified from Belle's NUMIDENT (FamilySearch ark:/61903/1:1:6KM1-59BH) which lists father as 'Guy Curtis'. FamilySearch tree PID (via GY82-PPB duplicate): unknown — NUMIDENT-only identification. Daughter Belle was born 7 Oct 1883 in Millport, Chemung County, NY, suggesting Guy Curtis resided in that area. Previously, Eugene Curtis (b. 1860, Hector, Schuyler County) was considered as a candidate for Belle's father — now confirmed to be Guy Curtis, not Eugene.
