Looking for death record for Martha A. Gray. My last information on her was that she was living in Grand Summit in 1887. Her husband, Nathaniel Gray died in 1879 & was buried in Box Cemetery in Harvey Twp., Cowley County. I've never been able to find out what happened to Martha. Any help would be appreciated. These were my great grandparents.

This is my Great Grandfather and Great Grandmother. They had three children in Arkansas City 1893-1990. He left the family and went into Canada. I would like to know if anyone could knows about why he did this, or could check newspaper articles around 1900 or late 1890. We think he was running from the law. Marianne Reynolds

I have a photograph of a family that I am 95% certain is the family of Andrew & Rosetta Jacobson of Arkansas City, Cowley County, Kansas, from the Cornish Photography Studio. Identifying information includes the names and ages of the children in the photograph: Doris (11 yrs. 8 mo.), Alan (5 yrs. 10 mo.), Helen Frances (2 yrs. 10 mo.), and Victor George (8 mo. old). It is in remarkable condition and I would love to scan it and email it (or I can send you the original - I only ask that you pitch the $3 I paid for it and maybe $1 to pack it and send it). It's a beautiful photograph, mounted on a folding mat board. Msg me if interested. [Cross-posting by surname.] Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Robert is buried in Dexter Cemetery. His son, Samuel, is also buried there. You can copy and paste this link into your browser. There is also a photo of his headstone on that page. _http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSln=Wells&GSiman=1&GScid= 377865&GRid=16664445_ (http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSln=Wells&GSiman=1&GScid=377865&GRid=16664445) There is no memorial created for a Malinda Wells in that cemetery. However, there is a tree on Ancestry.com that shows Robert as being married to a Mary Jane Sebrell who they show as having died before 1875 in Dexter, Kansas and the other shows her as having died in Indiana. They are also showing him as being married to a Maria Louisa Thrasher. She died in 1855 in Fayette County, Indiana None of the trees show him as having been married to a Malinda.
