Hi, folks. I thought someone on the list might know this. I recently got a query about an obituary that referred to the "W.B. Church." It is a Lincoln County listing but I don't know what it stands for. Anyone out there have thoughts? Tracee

I don't know if this added info will help but on the REES family page there is a mention of a marriage: "10 Aug 1877 ­ Asa C. JACKSON Lincoln Co aged 30 ­ Mary C REES Lincoln Co - aged 19 - G.M. Wellman Probate Judge - 12 Aug 1877 ­ D. C. Boone Pastor in W. B. Church - none recorded." http://skyways.lib.ks.us/genweb/lincoln/rees.htm Perhaps knowing that the pastor's name back in 1877 was D.C. Boone might help some of you in remembering the abbreviation, W.B. Bill At 10:44 AM 5/31/01 EDT, you wrote: >Hi, folks. I thought someone on the list might know this.
