Charles was protestant and I believe he died between 1896-1901. Thanks > so much for the above info. Meredyth Devin, La Jolla, CA > Hi, Meredyth. Vernon twp, in Cowley county, Kansas encompasses the west half of the town of Winfield. The main cemetery for Winfield would be in Vernon twp. I might recommend to all serious researchers, the DeLorme series of Atlas/Gazeteer. There is an atlas for almost all the states now, and they are very affordable, at $16.95, (street price) in most Border's Book Stores, and we got our Kansas edition at our local Sam's Club, for $10. You will find virtually every town, township, physical feature, etc., in the DeLorme!
