I just recently took on the task of administering 3 Arkansas county web-sites for the arkansasgravestones.org project, so my brain is mush at the moment. So, please excuse if the following is muddled--matches my brain today -LOL! I was just looking at the Mo. death cert. for Ira Madison (Masterson?) Marbut, born Feb. 8, 1873, Barry Co. MO; died Sept. 7, 1939, Kings Prairie, Barry Co. MO., son of "Wash" (George Washington) & "Armelia" (Permelia Rowena) Fly Marbut. At the time of his death, his wife was Edith. Informant, Brit Marbut of Purdy ( listed as a brother on Lena Coones' obit). He was buried at Arnhart Cemetery, according to the d.c., but he is not listed there. However, according to the obit of Lena Emma Marbut Coones, her mother was Sarah Jane Roller (who died in Dec. 1944, after the death of Ira ( if this is the right Sarah Marbut on the Mo DC Database. The other Sarah was a White that died in 1913 and was widowed at the time of her death) and Lena was born 1905. So, I guess I'm wanting to make sure my head is clear (lol), as there has to be an explanation, and all I can think of is a divorce. So---would some of you Marbut experts , make sure I'm on the right thinking pattern at this point, and if not, set me straight? Thank you. Oh, and what was Edith's maiden name if you know! Wilma
