Description: Every once in awhile I run across these family history research anomalies and by checking my fellow researcher’s family trees I can see many of you are struggling with these two families.

I am speaking of the Michael Dixon McKee and wife; Eliza E. (McKEAN) and William Michael McKee and wife; Catherine (McKEAN) families.

Both of these men were born almost the same years; both were married within a year, both lived in the same area of Jefferson County, Missouri.  And it looks like they could have been brothers and married sisters. 

However, make no mistake, they are two distinct individuals with two separate households and lived two separate lives. 

I am not doing you a favor by helping to clarify this convoluted record mess because…if you decide to fix your family tree you are in for a long hard effort.
