    1. [BRE] Badger genealogy #1(also some Shively, Sties)
    2. Your Badger information may very well trump mine. Maybe between the two of us we'll have something. I'm reasonably sure about Robert Badger whom I call III, the one who was a Brethren elder and who married Susannah Shively. We have a funeral card from his funeral service, and photos of headstones, etc., that my dad took on one of his genealogy trips. This one, Elder Robert Badger, (b Jan 22 1819 in PA Union County at White Springs & died Feb 24 1907 in Iowa at Panther, Dallas Co.) married Susannah Shively on January 1, 1840 at White Springs. Susannah was a daughter of George Shively (1788-1854) and Rachel Sties (1790-1861). The children I have for Robert & Susannah are: George, born Dec 3 1840, died 1841. Rachel, born Feb 11, 1842, d 1842. John Badger, born August 30 1843, PA White Springs; d July 19, 1916 IA Colfax twp. Married Elizabeth "Lizzie" Frey on Nov 27 1870 in IL. She was d/o Elder Daniel Frey (b 1806) andNancy Auman) and was born Sep 20 1851 in Stephenson Co. IL, d Sept 18, 1924 in Iowa. Two children: Susan Elizabeth Badger Hull & Rachel Anna Badger.

Funeral was at Manvel, TX. Susannah Badger Bower, born Dec 9 1846 in Union Co PA, d 20 Nov 1893 at McPherson, KS (my great-grandmother). Married David Bower July 7, 1867, Stephenson Co. IL. Six children: Rachel Ann Bower Dyck; Susannah Catherine Bower Boyd; Annie Elizabeth Bower Pitzer; Alice Mabel Bower Dickey; Mildred Ruth Bower Vaniman; David Earl Bower (always called "Earl"). David & Susannah are buried in the McPherson KS cemetery. Catharine Badger Armogast, b 22 Sept 1848 at White Springs, PA. I don't have DOD or DOM. She married E Grant Armogast (b 8 Nov 1850).My notes say 5 children, but I only have three listed: Willie, Frank and Hattie, who married Harvey Beaver. Grant died before she did, and she died in Colfax twp, Iowa. But some of the Armogasts are buried at Waddams Grove cem., IL. Mary Badger Beaver, b 23 August 1850 in Union Co PA. She married J H Beaver, and after a stopover in Stephenson Co. IL they wound up dying in Panther IA, Colfax twp. I have no info about children. infant son b 14 Oct 1852, d 1852.

Six children: Guy, Cora Badger Brubaker, Effie Badger Book, Jesse Badger, Ira Badger. For some reason I have some confusion about other child: Joy, Marie, Katherine. Needs to be straightened out. David Watson Badger, b 28 Sept 1855,Union Co PA, d 1941. Dallas Co. IA. Mostly called "Watson Badger." He married Sept 20 1877 Miss Annie Laura Emmert, b c1859 at Mt Carroll IL, d March 3 1921.
