She wrote to Thomas Poe for answers to her questions: What did he know o;f George Jacob Poe's ancestry? What happened to George Poe, Jr.? Miss Willard? The orphan, George? Catharine Ziegler?
1905 Jan The first issue featured the Irish POEs.

43-10 1926 Thomas Poe of Midland, Beaver Co., PA, visited Daisy and promised to help her with family information - but didn't.
1926 An account of Poe exploits was given to Earle R. Forrest, author of HISTORY OF WASHINGTON COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA, 1926 (CHAPTER XXI, p112). Daisy Poe was a great-granddaughter of Andrew Poe.
1927 A. J. Poe of Jones, Cass Co., MI, sent material to Daisy Poe Pratt. She had her grandfather's, Deacon Adam Poe's, "History of the Andrew Poe Family."
43-3 1937 29 Dec Daisy Poe Pratt's home burned to the ground. The fire destroyed all the Poe material she had accumulated since 1887 and earlier, some Poe relics 150 years old.
43-10 1938 03 Jun Arthru C. Poe met Daisy Poe Pratt at her gas station in Streetsboro, OH
(just west of Ravenna). He later sent pictures to her.
43-3 1939 Daisy began reconstructing whatever she could of the Poe family.
1940 Daisy lived at Streetsboro, on the Lake Erie shores west of Ravenna.
LCW This is a bit far-fetched because Ravenna is not that close to Lake Erie.

21-1 1951 Daisy claimed George Jacob Poe, Sr.'s wife was Elizabeth and Kate was their only daughter.

LCW It is too bad Daisy's home burned and it is too bad that the Poe family history and all those artifacts were lost. Daisy tried to reconstruct the history from memory and with a little help but she probably made errors; as would we all in such circumstances. Her information becamevery secondary and must be weighed against that from other sources.
Norman and Daisy Pratt had no children.
