In case anyone else is searching, from his obituary is the information that he died at his farm near Darlow, KS. Funeral services to be conducted from the Dunkard Church in Darlow. I appreciate your response to my query, Bil, and hope this additional bit of information will be of assistance to someone.

And for that particular area, it would have most probably been Hutchinson, Reno Co., Kansas. Not to say that he was buried there, but Hutchinson and Wichita or perhaps Halstead would be where anyone would have gone to the hospital in that area. Halstead, Kansas is a small town that has a clinic called the Hertzler Clinic, it is a medical town par excellance. Just an idea.

Surnames: Tubbs Ream Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/Vm.2ADE/1199.1 Message Board Post: Am so happy to locate someone with knowledge of Turon history. My great grand parents settled in and around Turon. William Byrd Ream and his wife Jennie (McNickle) were prominent citizens of Turon as he held quite a few offices and worked at the Citizens State Bank. Their daughter, Etna J. Tubbs married Mack Newell Tubbs whose parents farmed around Neola. Not the town Neola, but old Neola. Where the cemetary is located. Harvey and Mary Belle (Warren) Tubbs home is just above the cemetary. He and his sons farmed all that land around that area. I believe it was Harvey that donated the land for the Old Neola Cemetary where several members of my family are buried, including my mother. I remember Pioneer Days back in the 50's. My mother always dressed my sister and I for the children's parade that took place each year. One year we were Raggedy Ann and Andy and another we were a Gay Ninety's couple. We often took first place. I do not remember a whole lot about Pioneer Days as I was born in 1949 and was pretty young when we attended. But I recall it fondly. I can remember the movie house, the pool hall. The pool hall was always cool inside and had a distinct oder. Up front were dominoe tables, I can see those ivory dominoes in my minds eye still today. And the click of the pool balls. And the wire stretched over the tables with the little counter beads. They were used to keep score. This was in every sence of the word a "beer joint" and why we children were allowed in there is beyond me, but we spent a great deal of time in there, due to the fact that my great grandparents were no longer living. As a toddler, I escaped early one morning from my grandparents house, that at one time served as a boys home I believe. I believe the house sat at the corner of Chicago and the main street of town. Catty corner from that little gas station. The end of town where the railroad runs. Cross the highway and head out of town and you ran into the Ream farm. My great uncle Lloyd and his wife Rozelba (Simms) lived there until their death. Anyway, I reacall fragments of this incident. It was early in the morning and I can remember walking down the street, my mother Betty Jean (Tubbs) said that the whole town was out searching for me. At one point I was spotted in a barley field. Whoever saw me claimed they spied the top of my head bobbin' up and down. I remember being found in a John Deere tractor, I believe it was a dealership of some sort, as there was quite a few setting around. Again I was quite young so I do not remember much. My cousin, Mack Hoskinson, Lloyd and Jessie Lou (Tubbs) Hoskinson's son, was raised in Turon. He spent quite abit of time with his grandmother. I always envied him. He got to take a bus to Turon and spend time there. Turon was a wonderful place, I really regret not growing up there. It is really wonderful that you and this other fellow you mentioned take the time to know the local history. Are you two connected? By that I mean do you have family roots in Turon? My grandfather Bill Ream owned the newspaper at one time and was told by Amy Sampson that there were editorials and such still around by Bill Ream. I often check up on Turon here on the net to see if I can find any local history. I would love to keep in touch witih you folks and glean any history you might have on the town. Hope to hear from you. Bil Hartman

This is a long story but I'm posting it so maybe it will help some one else locate family membrs. We took our vacation and went to Langdon and found the grave of Edgar Adolphus Scott and his 2nd wife grave. Three people share the same headstone. This is the information on it. T. J. Allen 1853 - 1928, Belle 1857-1941, Edgar 1859-1941. We think that T. J. Allen is Belle 1st husband. This is the information I have found out sence. Edgar Scott Scott married a woman named Belle. His grandaughter sent me a letter that had been written to her mother and it was signed Mrs. Ophelia Holland. Ophelia was a sister to Belle. Ophelia married William Arthur Scott a brother to Edgar Scott. So two brother married two sister. Edgar death date is November 06, 1941. Belle date would be around April 21, 1941because of the date on the letter. So if anyone can find there obituaries I will be more than happy to pay for them. Thank you for your help.

I did some digging in my notes and did find John's birthyear as being ca. 1739. Info is on file at the LDS. If the naming practices were used by the Baynum family then, John would have been 2nd born son. (1739). Assuming Elloner's father was John Greer. This makes William born before 1739 (He being the eldest son) and heir of Bartholomew Sr. Bartholomew Jr. would be the 3rd born son born after 1739. Heavily involved in the Rev War and by 1780 was wanted by Delaware for his actions in said War. He would be captured in 1786 and executed in Worcester Co, Maryland. That leaves Levi .......4th born son after Bart II. My quess is a biblical name for I have not been able to find any other Levis' that Levi Baynum would have been named after. ***My speculation.........using the data that I have at hand.
