He is in Section 6F, Lot 57, Space 2 and was buried on 6 March 1959. I am hoping that this Ralph Barnes is my grandfather who I have been looking for in Kansas City, MO for the longest time, unsuccessfully. Does anyone have any suggestions on the next step to take to find out if this is my grandfather? I have printed the Application for Certified Copy of Kansas Death Certificate and will send away for that. Any other suggestions? Thanks for any help.

His last residence overseas was at his Fathers house James Inglis, 61 Easter Road, Edinburgh, Scotland. William was destined to visit his cousin George Forfar 1221 Masonic Avenue San Francisco, California. In the US 1930 Census there is a William Inglis Born 1900, Spouse Martha residing in Wyandotte, Kansas. The William Inglis I am searching was born abt Sept 1900 Canongate Parish, Edinburgh, Scotland.

A heads-up. There is an East and West Market Street in Kansas City, Missouri, as well as in Kansas. That would be Jackson County, MO. I know that area better and it would have been commercial, with storefronts, in 1920. It's called the River Market, River Quay. If you did not know. There are also KCMO directories at the downtown Central Kansas City Public Library. www.kclibrary.org And there are MO death records online. Up through about 1956, I believe. http://www.sos.mo.gov/archives/resources/deathcertificates/ More good luck, Patricia Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

My bet is that the address has not changed. I have a 1920 map of KCK that I will send you offline, however, it does not have Market St. It does have 18th St. I have several other suggestions. One is that you access WWI draft cards on Ancestry.com, if you have not. Second, the downtown KCK library has old city directories and used to have a genealogy librarian. http://www.kckpl.lib.ks.us/mainpage/main.htm Third, you can try the Wyandotte County Museum, which should have old maps and wills up through the early part of the 20th century. They may have other suggestions, such as tax lists or war records. http://www.wycokck.org/dept.aspx?id=770&menu_id=1012 Trowbridge Library http://www.wycokck.org/dept.aspx?id=804&menu_id=1012&ekmensel=1012_submenu_0_link_2 Fourth, I suggest that you also search in Kansas City, MO. It is simply over a viaduct and many people from KCK went back and forth to the sister city in MO. This is the link to marriage records. No Melvin Ellison, but you might search for other family. http://records.co.jackson.mo.us/results.asp Good Luck!

Her first name may be Laura but she went by her middle name, Margaret. She was the wife of Theodore Wonsetler at the time of her death. I believe her maiden name was Blanton and she married a number of times to men with the last names of Barnes, Anderson and Buzan before Wonsetler. She had children with both Barnes and Anderson, not sure about Buzan. She has been a brick wall in my research and through the kindness of 'Mary from Oklahoma' a little of that wall has been broken.

If you can't find a volunteer in the area to access newspaper archives, you can probably order microfilms for the appropriate papers either through your local genealogical library or public library. You can contact the Wyandotte County Museum's Trowbridge Library to ask their advice on which papers are most likely to list your people, depending on what part of the county they lived in. E-mail info@wycokck.org http://www.wycokck.org/dept.aspx?id=804&menu_id=1012&ekmensel=1012_submenu_0_link_2 The major paper for Kansas City, Kansas, was "The Kansas City Kansan". Some people posted obits in the Missouri paper, "The Kansas City Star/Times". For the little farm areas to the West of KCK, "The Bonner Springs Chieftain" had columns and info. Some people used "The Leavenworth Times", in Leavenworth county, if they lived to the north of Wyandotte County. Death certificates can be ordered through the Wyandotte county courthouse. http://www.wycokck.org/dept.aspx?id=370&menu_id=554&ekmensel=554_submenu_1140_link_1 Good luck!
