    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: StClair, Boswell, Saunders Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Fl.2ADE/1810 Message Board Post: I have a copy of the final divorce decree, dated 18 & 20 Oct 1869 of my gr gr grandparents Lydia Elvira Boswell StClair vs Harrison StClair. This was included in her Widows Civil War pension file based on her second marriage to Marion Saunders. The final decree states that she was the innocent & injured party. Lydia also got custody of their son and Harrison was forever barred from seeing or having any control over the boy. Harrison StClair did not appear for the final proceedings. I need help in locating the entire divorce proceedings that would list the grounds for the divorce and possible information about Harrison StClair. Harrison is the brick wall in my St Clair research. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
