Dan, Can you give a little more information about the Howard or Wright families so one of us can help? Knowing about when Eunice was born can be helpful. It is also helpful in knowing names of parents, if known, or others in the family general information as well. Sometimes, not always, you can find more than one member of the same family buried in the same cemetery which is why I asked. I have access to the cemetery books, so I can try to see what I 've found unless someone has already helped you.

Her name was Eunice Elizabeth Howard Wright and the Howard family had a farm in Onton. She died around 1905. I will be visiting the area again in May. Do you know of anyone that might be willing to help me locate her grave? Thanks, Dan
Danny, you might look on Find A Grave and look in Webster Co cems for someone who has added many sites or pictures and email that person.

Hi, I am wanting some info on Ada Franklin who married Thomas Wade "Wade" Eakins about 1887-possibly in Webster CO. Wade was in Webster CO, then in Muhlenberg CO and finally moved to MO. Wade had possibly 4 wives-- 1. Ada Franklin and had a daughter, Georgia Howard Eakins (md to Charlie Franklin Herald). Georgia was b. Feb 5, 1889 in Webster CO 2. Genoa Frances "Fanny" Downey-b. Dec 1870, KY, md Wade Jul 20, 1892 in Hopkins CO., IN. Fanny lived in Hopkins CO-her sister, Edith "Edie" Downey md a brother to Wade-David "Moss" Eakins. I don't know when Fanny died-she and Wade had 7 children, possibly b. in Webster CO., KY. 3. Nora Downing Hicks-mystery wife. Wade and Nora had a son, Leslie James/James Leslie on Mar 3, 1908 in KY. Some researchers think that there is a possibility that Nora and Fanny are the same person. 4. Rosey Abrams-md June 13, 1911 in Muhlenberg CO., KY. No wives are with Wade in 1910, 20-30-40. Wade died May 16, 1947 supposedly in Butler CO., MO, but I cannot find a death record on him dying in MO. Is there anyone out there who can help me sort out the "Wives of Wade"? Guess this would make for a good soap storie-"All my wives". Thanks.
