Please look up marriage of Alvina J. Rick between 1914 and 1919. Groom could have been surname Weltermann. Many thanks

Norma, Noxall is now called a Locale and was/is located just off the railroad tracks about 2 miles south of Matthews, New Madrid Co., MO, about 3/4 mile west of Highway 61. If I have plotted the coordinates correctly New Hope cemetery is just off Hy 61 just east of the Noxall Locale. By the way there almost seems that there is at least one New Hope Cemetery in every county in Missouri.

I don't know; this was an article that I picked up from the Spencer, Indiana Genealogy Library. It was meant to be 'interesting' - not Gospel.

Hello Is there a Missouri Index searchable online? Tom

In one of mine all 5 boys were named John and all 5 girls Mary, with different middle names. The oldest boy and girl used John and Mary, the others used their middle names. The biggest problem was that when a census taker asked for a man's name and he said John Peter -----, the man wrote down John, not Peter. All of the sons were "John" on the census. This was a Swiss family in Pennsylvania. . . . James R.

That naming pattern didn't work in several of my German family lines. Be careful to assume. Barbara --------------------------------- Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Greetings - Send FREE e-cards for every occasion!

Seymour, MO is located in Webster County, MO in the southern part of the state. (Greene County, MO?) According to the 1895 U.S.Atlas online at <http://www.livgenmi.com/1895.htm> Seymour had a post office, train and freight depot (meaning it was on a rail line). The population in 1895 was 388. I'm wondering if anyone has access to look up a Jeannie Ellen (Swisher) Cave, Cooper and husband Joseph Cooper who had daughter Katie Ellen Cooper born May 17, 1889 in Seymour Missouri. Jeannie Ellen is also known as Jenny, Jennie, and Virginia Ellen. Maybe a 1900 Census? Looking for where this Jeannie or Virginia Ellen Cooper died on November 27, 1920. Unfortunately, the date information above did not come with a source or location. She was in the Ziegfield Follies in 1920, in a Radio Show. This is the same Jennie E. Swisher who married Merritt Henry Cave on October 16, 1877 in Brown County, Illinois, and is found in the 1880 Census of St. Clair County Missouri with their first son Charles Absolom Caves b September 19, 1878 in Illinois.
