The Westgate's"A large Family Affair"inNewaygo, Co. MI

The research and continunce of information in this family tree has been due to the indurance and persistince of Sandra Westgate.Sandra is one of the thirty-two brother and sister-in-laws I gained the day I married Lois Jean Westgate.The family was so extensive that I should have taken her name instead of Staples which was given my dad after an adoption. So I have been told. My parental Grandfather was named Doane and I have been lead to believe he was from Hobart,IN and Buried in Michigan City, In.
The WESTGATE family is the primary reason for this page as it has been linked to John Alden of the Mayflower.
