I have many relatives in southeast Missouri which I would like to do research on. Also have information I would not mind sharing. Some of the names on my "wondering list" include Allman-Allmon, Barnes, Bockman, Hurst, Parrott, Brawley, Cooley..... and the list goes on and on. I am new to this computer game- don't always know what to do to make my computer operate the way I want it to but I keep trying. Are there any relatives out there? Sure would love to hear from you.

Hi! Our grandmother was Susan Malinda GAGE ALLISON the daughter of William GAGE (b.1828 in Tenn.) and Mariah Jane WHITE (b about 1835 in Tenn.). They married 4 Nov. 1849 in Gibson Co., Tenn. (Mariah later married a George F. BASINGER as she appears on the 1880 Clay Co. AR census with George and 6 of her children.) Mariah's children were: William S. GAGE, John Henry GAGE, Susan Malinda GAGE, Lucinda GAGE, Ester V. GAGE, Jasper GAGE and Mary D. GAGE. I would like to find the parents of Mariah Jane WHITE- If this WHITE name sounds familiar to any White researchers on this list, I would certainly like to hear from you. THANKS!! Carolyn ALLISON

Carol, Does the marriage license list where they were from or where they were married?

I forgot what the title should be, not brick wall?... anyway, mine is: my great-grandmother, Elizabeth Jenkins, md. James E. Pickett (g-g'father's 3rd wife) April 8, 1869, Randolph co., Ark. No age on marriage license, just has 'of lawful age', so how do you look for her on a census report?, where do you look? There are Jenkins/Jinkins in almost every county around the area, including Mo. help!! & thanks for any help, Carol Thompson Pocahontas, Ark.

Jim, What area are your NORMAN and LEMMONS lines from? We've got NORMAN lines that married into the GAULDING and BOZE families in Oregon County. And, the LEMMONS, married in the BRAWLEY family in Oregon and Shannon Counties. Some of the LEMMONS went to Kansas City in the early 1900's.

Good Morning, Let me interpret this one: "S.A.G." stands for Samuel Alexander Greer BRAWLEY, s/o Neal Theophilus BRAWLEY and Julia Ann Amanda INMAN. We're trying to find S.A.G. Brawley's military records. As a VERY young man, he served in Fristoe's Regt., but probably under an alias. S.A.G. talked about everything else, but not his military career. I'm not familiar with enlistment requirements for the CSA. Do any of you know about age limits, or other regulations? The Union instituted a draft, but for a certain amount of money, it was legal to pay another man/boy to take ones' place in the service. Was there a comparable clause for the CSA? I've noticed while transcribing the 1890 indexes, that some of the men in Oregon County, particularly, had aliases listed. What's that all about?

Deloris, Here'a another link that might help you find information about your GGrandfather's adoption records. This one is specific to New York State: http://www.nyadoption.org/ Since your GGrandfather was adopted in NY State, is there any possibility he had just arrived on a passenger ship from another country? If you send some background information, either privately or to the list, we'll sure try to do whatever we can to help. Is there anyone else out there that has had the same experience? If so, jump in here and let us know!
