Hello, I am new to this list and after browsing the archives it appears my family is not one previously considered on this list. I am a descendant of Daniel WOOLFORD 1805-1880 & Elizabeth BLOOM ca 1809- aft 1860 who resided early on in Bollinger Co. Missouri in 1857 for certain but appeared to have moved around a bit unless it was merely state boundaries moving around them. They had eleven children I know of: Children of Daniel & Elizabeth surname WOOLFORD: 1. Nancy Ann m. 1) James McPIKE 2) Thomas BLAKEWELL 2. Sarah Jane m. John MAHAN 3. Frederick m. Louisa Emeline ALLEN <my line> 4. Elizabeth m. William L. MILLS 5. Rachel m. John Cantrel ROBERTS 6. John L. m. Mollie FREEMAN 7. George W. m. 1) Matilda COLEMAN 2) Victoria Virginia COLEMAN 8. Eliza Catherine m. Eliza COUSINS 9. Peter Bloom m. Martha Marietta TOWNSEND 10. Emmanuel Pratt m. Narcissa PALMER 11. Jacob M. b. 1849 <no further info> My Aunt has been to the old WOOLFORD farm and it had the remains of a pottery kiln on it and Daniel was reportedly a watchmaker and later in life a Justice of the Peace in the old huge Washington Co. Mo. Elizabeth BLOOM appears to be the daughter of the Peter BLOOM referred to in GOODSPEEDs who was b. in Maryland married 1790 to Elizabeth MATHENY in Hardin Co. Ky and in 1797 came to "Upper Louisiana" where he and the BURTCHER brothers Michael, Bartholomy & Sebastain claimed land in 1802 from the Intendant of New Orleans in St. Genevieve Co. Mo. Interested in anyone who knows of or connects to this family, james wall

I hope someone on the list can help me out with land records. I have just read a film from LDS "Bollinger Co. MO Deeds 1852-1870. I didn't find any of the deeds I was expecting to find. The CHEEK family was there since around 1812; I have located some records from BLM. I know the courthouse burned a couple of times; were some of the land records lost. Also, if I have the original gov. grant is it possible to trace the chain of title and see when it was sold? Thanks for your help. Stephanie in Oregon

Thank you for the info. That is one of the "puzzle pieces" I have. I think the marriage is not correct 1787??. Also, I sure would like to know where the maiden name Myers came from. Since this is not a marker. Who ever compiled this cemetery information must have gotten that from another source. Any ideas where it came from. Thanks you very much.

Hi Stephanie: I don't know if anyone gave you the following source. Cemeteries of Madison County Missouri, Vol 1, page 119. Under the Mouser Cemetery, which is located in Madison Co, Hwy A, just outside of Marquand Mo. "*Moyers, Sarah "Sallie" ca 1828 30 Apr 1883 d/o Randolph Cheek & Sarah (Myers). Sarah Cheek mar: Michael Moyers ca 1787". The asterick at the beginning indicates there are no markers and the person is reported to be buried at this location. I hope this helps.

I am descended from Hiram Lee who married Elizabeth Cheek in 1826, Cape Gir. Co. I am trying to find proof that Elizabeth is the child of Randolph and Sarah Cheek who died in Bollinger Co., in the late 1870's. A newspaper article in 1873 mentions that they are the parents of 11 children, all living. From all the bits and pieces that I have collected for over 20 years I am trying to put together their family. I believe the above surnames are the children's spouses. If anyone on the list has something to share I would be happy to have it and am happy to share what I have. There is a lot of misinformation about this lineage on the internet. The children I have proven are: James H. (sarah Hahn), Andrew (Sarah Crites), Anderson (single), Jesse C. (Mary C. Grable), Patience (Leonard Welker), Mary B.Polly (George W. Mayfield) Other possible children are Sarah (Michael Moyers), Pernecia (Jacob Mayfield), Kazado (John Propts) John (Lucinda Mayfield) and Elizabeth (Hiram Lee).! Thanks for any help.

I am looking for the burial plot of Ellery Perry Hatcher. He was born 24 Apr 1833 in Cape Girardeau Co.; died 31 Oct 1885 in Marble Hill and was buried on 1 Nov 1885 also in Marble Hill. What I don't have is the location of where he was buried. If anyone could help out with this, I would sure appreciate it. Fred Stewart Saginaw, TX fred@stewartquest.com

Hi Lorena, So glad to know that you are still around. I purchased your book on the Crites family many years ago. My line is Melissa Crites, 1832 and Thomas Roberts 1826. Have you discovered anything new in that line?

Ruth and Pat: I have sent you a flyer about the books by seperate post. It will be a while before any CDs are available, but eventually they will be, if God grants me enough time and stamina. It's a long process to do such large files. I can't just do them as is. They have to be organized in some fashion or it would be just a mess no one would know what to do with. For instance: There are several Baker families involved that have no relationship to each other, but have found their way into my files by having intermarried with one of our ancestral lines or another. My husband's Perkins/Sherrill family has one file box of it's own, plus having information in other families that needs to be pulled and included. The Myers/Moyers/ Crader families will take some sorting out: The Craders are all of Moyer descent, The Moyers are of Crader descent all out of PA, Germany and Switzerland. However there are other Moyers/Myers in NC to IN, TN, KY, etc. that don't seem to be of our lines, but ended up in my files anyway as I tried sorting them out. The CRITES? Well that's a WHOLE CAN OF WORMS! One I'm a bit overwhelmed with, but keep working at.to correct misassumptions and prove the various lines. A 57 year collection on that family is enough to blow anyone's mind! The Shell/Schell and their many other ancestral connections (MULL/ ANTHONY/SECHLER, etc. ) HOUK./SCHWEDNER and their connections: My Benedict Hahn is said to have married a Houk, reputedly the aunt of the John Houk who married the daughter of John Miller of Millersville. The Hahn/Hawn family--- The various MILLER families --- and so many others that we won't talk about just now!

Thank you so much for your time and efforts. Most especially for being willing to share all that precious information. Pat L Eaker <renas@usit.net> wrote:Ruth and Pat: I have sent you a flyer about the books by seperate post. It will be a while before any CDs are available, but eventually they will be, if God grants me enough time and stamina. It's a long process to do such large files. I can't just do them as is. They have to be organized in some fashion or it would be just a mess no one would know what to do with. For instance: There are several Baker families involved that have no relationship to each other, but have found their way into my files by having intermarried with one of our ancestral lines or another. My husband's Perkins/Sherrill family has one file box of it's own, plus having information in other families that needs to be pulled and included. The Myers/Moyers/ Crader families will take some sorting out: The Craders are all of Moyer descent, The Moyers are of Crader descent all out of PA, Germany and Switzerland. However there are other Moyers/Myers in NC to IN, TN, KY, etc. that don't seem to be of our lines, but ended up in my files anyway as I tried sorting them out. The CRITES? Well that's a WHOLE CAN OF WORMS! One I'm a bit overwhelmed with, but keep working at.to correct misassumptions and prove the various lines. A 57 year collection on that family is enough to blow anyone's mind! The Shell/Schell and their many other ancestral connections (MULL/ ANTHONY/SECHLER, etc. ) HOUK./SCHWEDNER and their connections: My Benedict Hahn is said to have married a Houk, reputedly the aunt of the John Houk who married the daughter of John Miller of Millersville. The Hahn/Hawn family--- The various MILLER families --- and so many others that we won't talk about just now!

FROM THE MARBLE HILL PRESS, Dec 19, 1912 ANDERSON PARK THOMPSON, son of Anderson and Annie Thompson was born in Dunklin County, December 28, 1858; died December 10, 1912 in Bethesda Hospital, St. Louis, aged 53 yrs. 11 mos. and 12 days. Little is known of his early life as he went out west as a young man. He suffered greatly about two years and when informed by physicians of his critical condition, he accepted their advice and returned to Missouri to spend his last days with his nieces and nephews. His suffering became more intense each day but he bore it bravely and very patiently. He never acknowledged being a Christian until a few hours before he died. He said "I am happy and my home is in heaven". Mrs. R. P. Hatcher, Mrs. J. W. Reilly, Miss Christine and Robert McAnally of St. Louis; M. L. Thompson, Senath; and Albert Thompson, Sibleyton, Mississippi attended the funeral which was conducted by the writer, after which the body was laid to rest in the Stroderville Cemetery about a mile and a half from Whitewate! r. Dear ones, mourn not for him! Your loss is his gain -- you shall meet again. Rev. M. M. Blaise. Rev. M. M. Blaise went to Whitewater Tuesday and conducted the funeral services of Anderson Thompson. ------------------------ FROM THE JEFFERSON CITY TRIBUNE, 13 January 1892 Uncle Johnny ROWE one of the oldest and most respected citizens of this county, died at his home in Clark township on the 29th of December, 1891. He was taken with la grippe some eight days before he died and never recovered from the same. He received good medical attention, but his ailment refused to yield to the science of man, perhaps old age had something to do with it. The news of Uncle Johnny's death was received throughout the neighborhood with genuine regret. Uncle Johnny possessed a charming congeniality and was a delightful conversationalist. He had many warm friends and was well liked by all who knew him. He will be sadly missed by the people of the neighborhood. He was the father of twenty-two children, nine by his first wife and thirteen by his second wife. He leaves a wife and sixteen children (of whom six are by his first wife and ten by his second wife) and a host of earnest friends to mourn his death. The youngest child is grown and all are married but tw! o. The remains were laid away to rest at the Spring Garden Cemetery, December 30 by the Masons, as he was a prominent member of the order and the ceremonies were witnessed by the relatives and a host of friends. Uncle Johnny was a native of Kentucky. Born in August 1812, he came to Missouri in 1827 and worked with the late Judge Robt. E. SIMPSON of Spring Garden on the farm, while a boy. He has lived within two miles of the place he died for sixty-four years, with the exception of a short time that he lived on the Osage river, some five miles below Tuscumbia, just after he was first married. Not liking the fog from the river so well as the breezes of the little prairie around Spring Garden, he soon left the river and came to a place in sight of the farm he died on. He was reasonably successful as a farmer in his younger days. At one time he acquired quite a tract of land, but the war came on and he, not taking any part, but thought everybody to be honest, would not refuse t! o accommodate anyone that called on him, and the result was that when he got through paying other people's debts he only had enough left to live on. There are but few, if any, that have been in Cole County longer than he was. A full history of his life would almost be a history of Clark township. A friend. ---------------------------- From the Boonville Weekly Advertiser, Friday November 2, 1894 Absalom HUGHES died at Cedar City, Callaway county Wednesday night and was buried yesterday afternoon in the Heart Hill Cemetery near that town. He was 84 years old and for many years had been a historic character in this state, from the fact that he was the only man living in Missouri who could legally run a dram shop without paying state, county or municipal license. He was first sergeant in Parson's regiment 1st Missouri volunteers Co. F. in the Mexico War. At the battle of Sacramento he had both legs broken by a cannon ball, but distinguished himself so conspicuously for personal bravery that the Missouri legislature, in 1844, passed a law authorizing him to keep a dram shop at Cedar City, Callaway County, during his life and exempting him from paying any license. He accepted the offer and for 50 years kept an unpretentious saloon in that little town. The wounds he received rendered him a cripple for life, and of late years he got around with great difficulty. Mr. Hughes! served in the regiment with Capt. M. T. Moore of this city. The deceased made but little more than a living out of his saloon. --------------------------------------- Full account found in First issue of November 1936 Sullivan (MO) News. CATHERINE BRUESEKE, nee SCHEERER, was born at Nordeck, Germany on June 5, 1848. When only fourteen years of age she left Germany and went to London, England, where she lived for five years. She was married in London, at the age of nineteen, to ADAM WAGNER. This couple left immediately after their marriage and came to America where they settled on a farm near Marthasville, in Warren County, Missouri.

There is nothing wrong with admitting you are an American. Wish more people would feel that way. Enjoyed it very much. Mery Christmas, Donna

Not genealogy, but fitting. If you want to yell at me, go ahead, it will be worth it to get it out to the people that will appreciate it. Please don't comment on the mailing list, just send it to me. (Mozarkhick@aol.com) We don't need to clutter up the mailing list. Thank you kindly. I found this in a 1941 McKinley High School (Chicago, Ill) Yearbook. I had never seen it before. I don't know who else to credit other than the McKinley Yearbook staff. If anyone knows, please tell me. It features the graduating classes of January 1941 and June 1941. (Before the December 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor) I hope that you will enjoy it....................Cathy Hill (21 Dec 2004) I AM AN AMERICAN I am an American. My country is the freest, the richest, and the most beautiful land on earth. My flag is unstained. My Navy is unconquered. My Army defends the freedom of the world. The faith of America is faith in God and man. She believes in brotherhood and opportunity. She believes in justice and mercy. America has received from all races. She gives to all races. One bond binds all races together in her citizenship. It is the bond of loyalty. To be an American is to love America, to believe in America, to serve America. To be an American is to live by the American ideals of freedom, honor, and service. I thank God for the privilege of being a child of America. I pray that I may be worthy of the privilege. With gratitude and high purpose, for service with the heart, hand, and brain. "I AM AN AMERICAN"

I don't know of a website for them but I have been very lucky writing them and requesting information about what is available. The people there are very helpful and respond very quickly. Since Bollinger County is one of my main areas I did join the Historical Society. Hope This Helps, Susie Still Looking For: Spurlock, Simpson and Stalnaker
