News: Looking for females who are in the pure female lines (mother to daughter) from William and Sarah who are willing to do an mtDNA test. Such a person would be descended along an all female line from Mary DEVIN Biggers or Margaret DEVIN Reynolds. The hope is to identify the markers for Sarah SMITH Devin to help identify her parents. Contact the webmaster if interested.

Devin descendant, Stanley Wayne Devin, passed away at 1:30 a.m. on Dec. 4, 2014. He was the last living child of Ira & Oleta Devin.

      Cecil Edwin Wassem contacted polio at a very early age (there being no vaccine
      for the disease at the time); consequently, his heart failed to grow with the
      rest of his body. He died at the age of 36 as a result of heart failure; that
      portion of his heart which had grown had done twice the work and just gave out.

      Cecil married Irene Fern Devin on 22 Aug 1942 in Lewiston, Nez Perce, Idaho U.S.A.. Irene (daughter of Ira Holmes Devin and Oleta Fern Hansen) was born on 08 Jun 1918 in Flora, Wallowa, Oregon U.S.A.; was buried on 18 Apr 2012 in Hemet, Riverside, California U.S.A.. [Group Sheet]
