It concerns Littleberry Lingenfelter and his family AS RESEARCH OF THIS DATE reveals. Perhaps I have other info that I just haven't added to it as yet, but this can get me started: LITTLEBERRY LINGENFELTER, born August 13, 1814 in Kentucky -d. May 5, 1884 in Sidney, Iowa; married SUSAN E. LANCASTER, born May 21, 1828 - died April 15, 1882; married on October 13, 1846 in Andrew county, Missouri. Burial in Sidney, Iowa. He was the son of George Lingenfelter of Clay county, Missouri; was an early attorney in Sidney and was the author of an 1876 history of Fremont county, Iowa. Children: (As far as known). 1. Mary C., born circa 1848; married George P. Glenn on August 29, 1872 in Fremont county. 2. George, born circa 1849; married Elizabeth M. Carey on May 18, 1872 in Fremont county. In July 1895 he moved to Springfield, Missouri. 3. Daniel Webster, born circa 1852. FREMONT TIMES, June 9, 1876: The rumor has reached here that Webster Lingenfelter of Sidney was one of the victims of the Indians last week in the Black Hills country. 4. Emma, born circa 1855. No info. 5. Franklin, born circa 1857. No info. 6. Walter, born circa 1860. In 1898, he was the editor of the ARGUS at Walla Walla, Washington. In 1917, he was said to be "at home in New York". Newspaper clipping dated April 5, 1917: "OLD-TIME CITIZEN OF SIDNEY HERE VISITING WITH FRIENDS. Walter Lingenfelter of New York City Reviewing Old Home Scenes in Fremont County".--Walter Lingenfelter, son of Attorney L. Lingenfelter, former Sidney lawyer, is in the city this week visiting with old friends and viewing the scenes of his boyhood days. The first thing Mr. Lingenfelter said to a Herald reporter, winking at a friend, was: "You can tell your readers I am a German spy who came down here to look over the situation in Iowa" Making the practical joke all the stronger, Mr. Lingenfelter displayed on the lapel of his coat an American flag--the Stars and Stripes which hold such sacred qualities for every American citizen of today. He is a democrat of the first quality, and undonditional in his support of President Wilson. Mr. Lingenfelter is a son of one of Fremont county's early-day attorneys; was born in Sidney; remembers many events of pioneer times which are interesting to the younger generation, and was a schoolmate of Ed. Engelke, W. L. Van Eaton, A. V. Penn, W. A. Penn, and a number of other oldtimers in Sidney. He expects to return to his home in New York in a few days.

Thank you so very much Walter ; This is just what i was needing to see if Albert Lingenfelter was in this family. Now i wonder if you might know anything more about Albert Lingenfelter he was listed in an 1880 Census of Fremont Co. Sidney Twp. Iowa in ED 69 Sheet 61 Line 44, 45, 46. on the right side of the page at the top it had 181-C How can i find out who Albert Lingenfelter 's parents where and what his wife Elizra Lingenfelter b-Tenn, what her maiden name was? I truly feel sure thier son Elmer Lingenfelter (age 4 born in Iowa most likely in Fremont Co. Iowa.) is our Grandfather. We need to find out who Elmer 's grandparents were? I hope i am not requesting to much trouble for you ,in this search? I really thank you a lot. Sincerely, Geri Lingenfelter P.S. Therr was a Louisiana (Lingenfelter) Hodges that lived in Clay Co. Mo. and she married William V. Hodges in before 1830, she was born in 1812 , they may of moved to Iowa later, i do not know for sure, i think one of their grand daughters Nadine Hodges did a lot of genealogy in the K.C. ,Mo. area? These people are all part of this family. But now to see if Albert Lingenfelter and his son Elmer Lingenfelter belongs to this family ??
