My great-grandparents are buried at Washington Cemetery, Republic, KS. I was visiting there 4 years ago and took some pictures of their grave. The address I have is 2 miles north of Republic and 3 miles east. Best to ask somebody at the Cafe in Republic how to get there. I saw no signs.

Hi, I'm new to the list and I'm trying to find some more information about Kemler's in Farmington Twp. I have found the following originally from some newspaper in 1898: --- A party of Farmington township people consisting of James Hebrew and wife, Lark Johnson, Ed Hays, Carl Hebrew, Willie and Frank Kemler, all started for Kansas City Monday evening for a weeks visit and to transact some business. --- If somebody could provide additional information on the Willie and Frank Kemler or other Kemler's I would very much appreciate it. As I have a large database of Kemmler/Kemler worldwide I possibly can provide additional ancestrial information.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Brooks, Johnson Classification: Death Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Vm.2ADI/120 Message Board Post: Mr. David Johnson returned last Monday morning from Belleville, Republic county, Kansas, whither he had gone to attend a brother-in-law, Mr. Henry Brooks, who had been prostrated with an attack of inflammatory rheumatism. When he arrived, Mr. Brooks had been dead since the day before, and could only aid in his burial obsequies. Mr. Johnson represents the county and its inhabitants in a most deplorable state of destitution. The drouth has prevailed to such an extent as to almost defy the power of vegetation to withstand it. The inhabitants are ematiated beyond comprehension and starvation stares them grimly in the face; and unless aid can reach them much suffering must ensue, before their scanty crops can be of any avail.

Does anyone happen know if a city/county directory exists, or if any other type of publications were available during 1887-1892 such as a farm gazette or business index?  Would someone be able to check those types of records for the surname CLERC for me?  'Yeahs' and 'neahs' are both important to me. In addition, I'm looking for a CLERC marriage and divorce/or wife's death notice during this same time period. And his Declaration of Intention or Naturalization Application.  (Citizenship was filed/granted in Jefferson County Sept 1892) These type of fees were often published in the local newspaper under the Court column.  Pierre Louis Charles CLERC's 1925 Jefferson County, MO obituary reads that he was a well educated Frenchman; immigrated from France; was from an affluential family; and lived in Kansas prior to moving to Jefferson County, MO. Unfortunately it does not explain where he lived in Kansas and 1887-1892 is a poor time frame to try to find a needle in a haystack... He has not turned up in any indexed listing of the 1885 State Kansas Census records (tho I don't anticipate finding him earlier than 1887).  Numerous census records list his immigration year as 1887, and that time period is in agreement with the citizenship papers.  Per the History of Jefferson County, MO, by Litton, it states that Pierre CLERC made and sold an 'excellent stove polish' out of his home.  This 'means' of making a living was something he did in the 1890's (based on his residence at that time vs. his later residence listed in the land/tax records for Hillsboro Poultry Farms). **************************************************** I'm hoping local documentation might be found mentioning an earlier involvement in making/selling this stove polish prior to moving to Jefferson County, MO. ***************************************************** Other info: Per the 1900 - 1926 Jeffco county newspapers on microfilm, there were 6 CLERC products that he manufactured/sold at his 'factory' (called Hillsboro Poultry Farms): Clerc's Specific Clerc's Clerc's Chicken-Lice Killer Clerc's Egg Producer Clerc's Chicken Food Clerc's Condition Powders Clerc's Disinfectant Insect Powder ***************************************************** Citizenship/Naturalization/Declaration of Intent: ***************************************************** His citizenship record was applied for (exact date unknown, but at least 2 years prior to...) and granted Sept 18, 1892, in Jefferson County, MO.  Julius DuFOUR and Eugene HEYLIGERS (Heilgers?) were witnesses.  Julius Dufour, born 1844, is listed in various county census records: 1860 (STE GENEVIEVE, MO), 1870 (Randolph County, IL), (1880/1900 - ?) and 1910-20 (STE GENEVIEVE, MO); and a Eugene HEILGER is listed under property transfers in Jefferson County, MO (1910, I believe). I've been unable to find the naturalization record or declaration of intent for Pierre CLERC, which would help provide answers as to CLERC's birthtown or anyone he may have immigrated with. His 'German' brother-in-law, Albert Joseph UMHOEFER's, Declaration of Intention was recorded in St. Louis, MO, but CLERC's isn't there.  ****************************************************** Marriage/Wife's Death Notice or Divorce Notice : ****************************************************** It seems that Pierre CLERC was married prior to his Jefferson County marriage in 1892; whether that first marriage ended in death or divorce, I'm not sure.  There could be a death notice for his first wife during this time period or a divorce notice in the locally published court records (1887-1892).  (His second marriage (mid-1892) to Anna UMHOEFER ended in a divorce (denied in Jeffco, but later a change of venue was granted to St. Genevieve, MO).  A week after the divorce was granted (1920) in St. Genevieve, he remarried in Jefferson County.) I've been searching for these missing CLERC records for 7 years -and counting! Any help will be greatly appreciated.  I have several books for Jefferson County and will be happy to reciprocate the kindness with any lookups in that area.

Hi John, The Belleville library has a nice genealogy section with lots of great things indexed so one can find obituaries, births, marriages etc easily. If you contact them, a volunteer may be able to look up the obituaries you want for you. Here's a link: http://www.nckcn.com/BellevilleLibrary/homepage.htm Good luck!

There is a descendant of a sister of Joshua, Mary Ellen Woodhouse who married Joseph Hayes Timmons in Grant County, who lives in Michigan. He has a lot of information on the family. He says that Mary Ellen and Joshua and most of their siblings were born in Knox Co. Indiana. Their parents were Henry and Jacamine (Atwood) Woodhouse. Henry served in the Knox Co., Ind. militia during the war of 1812. This coincides with your information, so it must be the same family. Do you know when and where Joshua died and where he is buried? I have not worked with this branch of the family for a while, so am rusty on the details, but gladly share what I have (lots on Elizabeth Woodhouse Micka's family). Marion Howard
