I will post them later tonight after I get home from work. There was one entry that intrigued me---a J.C. Tribble who was born in 1861 and died in 1886. This looked about the right age to be the John Tribble who married Mary Ozment Knowles. This J.C. Tribble is buried in Ozment Valley Cemetery. Does anyone know if this is the same John Tribble who married Mary Knowles? If so, did he die a natural death, or did he run into some trouble around town? (Never can tell!) Paul is right on about the BLM web site. Fantastic for finding land records! Give it a try. --Melissa
