Thank you!! This is the very first mention of the Flentge surname that I have seen on the list (other than my querys, that is). I assume that the daughter sited as living was Bernice Ford and married a Flentge. Does anyone have any connections to her or her Flentge husband?

Proctor. I've been wanting to find out Jane's death date so I can get an obit on her. She was still alive in the 1954 Cape Girardeau city directory. Henderson Proctor died 11-3-1941 and is buried in Russell Heights Cmty in Jackson, Mo. The second sister was Marcella Kinder who married William Campbell Stroder, who they called "Cam". But I had Marcella's father being Jude Kinder. Marcella born 4-19-1877 died 5-9-1962 burial in Hobbs Chapel Cemetery, Cape Girardeau. I am related to the Haynes family and Cam Stroder's mother was a Haynes. Also Jane's first husband was my great-great uncle Frederick A. Haynes who died 2-27-1916 at Cape. Fred & Jane had been married 12-12-1903. My great grandmother Clara (Haynes) Felden, was quite fond of her aunt Jane--even had a studio picture taken of the two of them together.
