I've been trying to find the burial spot for Caleb's wife for some time with no luck. Somewhere in IL, MO, or IA I suspect. Anyway, I recently saw a document from the BIA (Crow Agency office) that made note that Greenwood married one of the Crow tribe. The elder members of the tribe recalled this.

I am almost certain that I would not have thrown those kind of records away, so will dig in some of my files (actually, they piles of papers stacked here and there in my house) and see if I can find such a thing....Walter F.

    1. John A. Black and Rebecca Addy
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Black - Addy Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/ok.2ADE/1908 Message Board Post: I am in need of advice and/or information. While researching my family tree, I've looked at a lot of information posted on the web and also received some emails and even a few xerox copies, and the more I see, the more confused I become. According to that information, the parents of Isaac Allen Black (b. 1873 d. 1955 - info from his tombstone) are John A. Black and Rebecca Addy. I have no other information on John A. Black. I have plenty of information on the parents and the ancestors of Rebecca Addy, but almost none on her. The only date I have found on the web for her birth is 1868, which would make her a mother at the age of five! Her parents were married in 1851, so it is possible that she is Isaac's mother, but only if she was one of the first born. I suppose it's possible that there were two Rebecca Addys in southwest Iowa. There seems to have been lots of wholesale movements of entire clans during the 1800's. I would appreciate any and all information.

    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Eberman, Greenwood Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/ok.2ADE/1713.1 Message Board Post: John Greenwood, son of Caleb and a woman of Crow (rather than Blackfoot) heritage, married Sarah Frances Eberman as you mentioned, and I think she was all of 12 years old at the time. She was the best childhood friend of my great great grandmother, who was herself the sister of Caleb Greenwood's Crow wife. I think Sarah's name was spelled "Francis Eberman" in the record, but it's the same woman. Her parents were a John Eberman and Sarah Frances Hagler Eberman. Both may have been born in North Carolina. I am interested in any connections you may have for this Sarah Frances Eberman and these 2 "sons of John" named in a probate. Are their names given? Any other details? Sarah did have 2 (older) brothers that I know of, Ninian and William "Crockett" Eberman, and both wound up on the west coast. Ninian was an Oregon pioneer in 1843, and Crockett followed later. They were connected up with the Greenwoods in a few ways. All 3 Eberman's had kids, and Ninian has a number of descendents, most of which know nothing of him or their heritage. Sarah divorced John in proceedings in Oregon in the 1850s, though he was not in Oregon, but rather down in California where he later died. He was not killed on the Plains as some say -- this is just one of the many silly "legends" that were reported erroneously and have now become "facts" that surround the Greenwood family. Caleb was quite a "story teller" it appears, and even managed to convince some that he was 20 years older than he r! eally was. In a later post I saw that you thought a James Greenwood might have been a son of Caleb. The one you have was not him. James Case Greenwood, son of Caleb, was born about 1841 and died up in the northern part of the California coast years later. Thanks in advance.

Smith (Father) (Mason) Dec.22, 1856 - July 19,1905 Infant - Bertha R. Dec.22, 1897 - Aug.27 ---(1898 ???). Isn't this weird that the daughter (infant) was born on same day as the father?.

    1. Mary Ellen BRESSMAN/BRUSSMAN divorce documents 1880s
    2. Corrinne Ellis
    3. Hello everyone, Can anyone help with divorce records? I was told by Iowa Vital Recs that Iowa doesn't release divorce records and I'm looking for my gg-grandmother's divorce documents from sometime in 1880-1881. The divorce may have occurred in Fremont Co. but it's also likely that it occurred in Mills Co. where she remarried in 1882. Are there any alternatives? Can anyone offer suggestions? TIA.
