Hello Lincoln County researchers.... Since January 1, 2002, we've had the following queries added to the Lincoln County KSGenWeb page at: Beverly Peterson (email: petersonchsd@earthlink.net) - 25 January 2002 I am looking for information on SLAGLE and BEST families who went to Kansas in the early 1880s. Two SLAGLE brothers, John and Smith, married two BEST sisters, Florence and Matilda (Tillie). John and Florence are found in Lincoln County, Highland Township, 1885, with their infant daughter, Ida. Tillie is there with them. I would like to find some reference to Smith Slagle. Sincerely, Beverley ------------------------- Joan (email: Jsk1313@aol.com) - 28 February 2002 Can anyone tell me please where I might go to find "application for marriage" in Lincoln Co., Kansas for the the year 1876? I have the marriage record of the party I am searching but since the bride was only 15 at the time of her marriage in 1876 someone probably gave permission for the marriage, hence, my interest in the application. Any help will be most appreciated.
