He was born in 1875 in MO but interestingly married Agnes Jackson on January 24th 1898 in Greenwood County, KS. My main interest is in the Jackson family and I've only recently begun to look into the American line. The information above was sent to me by a third party and I've no way of verifying it. I pass it on to you as a possible link. But let me know what you think. Best wishes Steve

I would like to know if anyone still lives in Reece. Could not find a population figure in my Atlas. Went to MapQuest and could find no Bank, Gas station etc there. Thanks Reba

I am new to the list. I have been checking deeds of land bought by B.H. Johnson. The deeds list husbands and wives and as I know it is hard sometimes to find the wives names I thought I would share. John Biby wife Adaline in 1892 A.G. Everett wife Angeline N in 1894 W.S. Bryant wife S.G. in 1895 H.S. Shepard wife S.A, in 1896 John Swagerty and wife Sarah in 1896 Arista L Barrier 1898 unmarried female C.B Breese wife A.E. in 1899 J L. Barrier wife Ella 1900 John Batchelor wife Sadie in 1903 If anyone has any knowledge of Benjamin Harrison Johnson who died in 1916 Reece I would appreciate hearing from you. He bought a lot of land. The Resistrar of Deeds sent me a map of the area at the time and it was very interesting as almost all he bought was near the railroad tracks. The deeds do not mention a wife so I assume she died before he came to Reece from Johnson Co KS. Hope this helped someone Reba Johnson Gale

She was married March 15, 1866, to Adolphus Dimick whose birthdate was March 15, 1836. After the trials and hardships which accompanied the "early days", they at length made for themselves an attractive modern home in Reece. To this union was given five sons and two daughters. The husband, one daughter and one son are deceased. "Grandma", as she was best known to all by her kind deeds, was for many years a helpful member of the aid society, ever ready to do a generous share in the aiding of the needy, her motherly nature, as she assumed the role of mother to all, will long be remembered. The children were all present. They are: Mrs. Lizzie Fillmore, Crescent, Oklahoma; Albert of Cedar Vale, Kans; and Charles, Franklin and William of Reece; Mrs. Lizzie Storts, Grandma's sister, and a niece Mrs. Roy Davis and son Lloyd of Great Bend, Kans., were present during most of her illness, aside from these relatives two brothers, twe! nty grandchildren and nine great grand children and a number of relatives and a host of friends mourn her departure. Early in life, she united with the Christian church and was ever a loyal member and after an illness of two weeks she passed through the portals of the "golden City" claiming the promise "Be thou faithful unto death and I will give thee a crown of life." Life's work well done, Life's race well fun, Life's crown well won" a befitting symbol of her life's work. Funeral services were held at the Christian church Feb 3, 1922, in Reece by Rev. E.A. Newby, of Wichita. Burial was made in Reece Cemetery.

I think the Greenwood Historical Society is one of the best places to research. The volunteers are absolutely marvelous and they have lots of data and good suggestions Out of all the Historical societies I have ever written to or joined across the United States they truly rank at the top for friendliness, information, knowledge, and going the extra mile. If you have not written to them yet, try that before your trip. They have an online Website. http://skyways.lib.ks.us/kansas/genweb/greenwoo/gchs.htm Carina Gilson Slack ----- Original Message ----- From: oregon1853@netscape.net Sent: Monday, September 16, 2002 12:25 AM To: KSGREENW-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [KSGreenwood] Best Place for Research?
