Mary Catherine Denbow (c 1950)

Biography

Mary Catherine Denbow was born on 20 December 1874 in Monroe, Ohio, USABGO+.2 She married William Tecumseh Gramlich, son of John W. Gramlich and Mary F. Harris, on 9 July 1910 in Ohio, USA.3 Mary Catherine Denbow died on 19 September 1959 in Bridgeport, Belmont, Ohio, USA, at the age of 84.2 She was buried on 19 September 1959 in Lewisville, Monroe, Ohio, USA.2
Mary Catherine Denbow was also known as Mary Catherine Gramlich. .

The family believes that Mary Catherine Denbow was the mother of Carl William Denbow Sr. This was based on a deathbed confession. It's also bolstered by DNA autosomal matches of a descendant with Denbow family members in that same line from William Denbow, the Civil War veteran, and the father of Mary Catherine.

The father may have been George Miracle, but this is not certain. However, recent DNA evidence does point to someone in the Miracle family as one descendant has a suggestive autosomal match with a person in the Miracle family.

Ron Denbow, a direct descendant in this line, says that Mary Catherine and her son lived for quite a few years with her father William, beforre she married William Tecumseh Gramlich in 1910. As a result, Ron says, Carl William became very close to his grandfather William. Ron says that as result of this closeness William's pocket watch was passed from Carl William Sr. to Carl William Jr. to him.1
