Lucius Brutus Jeremiah Hitchcock photo
I have in my possession a photograph believed to be Lucius Brutus Jeremiah Hitchcock.This photo was in a old family photo album that was given to me by my mother.These pictures are from circa 1860-1870 or so.This man looks to be in his 20’s.
I did some research and where the family was living, was in Cass County, Michigan.I started to research Lucius Hitchcock (written in pencil on the picture) and I found a Lucius Hitchcox.An easy mistake to be made.
According to the federal census materials, Lucius’ father was Jarius in the 1840 Federal Census of Porter Township, Cass County, Michigan.
