I have no one in this cemetery. BUT....I want to thank you for caring enough to get all this done from such a long distance. You and your family need to be commended for caring. I will send you a small but hopefully, helpful check. People like you and your family are rare and need to be thanked in any way possible. Some of my families lie in unkept, badly damaged cemeteries and I, too, am far away and wonder what I can do. You have given me encouragement. Ira Sharp Dennis in Amarillo, Texas

Cal, I am not related to any of the folks that I am researching, it is an outgrowth of projects that I did while working at what is now Missouri State University in Springfield. Casebolt family papers suggest that they traded and interacted with the Abbotts. Am trying to look at the community in which the Casebolts lived.

Wanda, I am looking at Archibald Payne, his brothers and their descendants primarily because of their ties to the Patterson and Hartley families and secondarily because of connections with the Guinn Store/Post Office and Wilderness Road. Am looking at the Cook famil, James Duncan b. 1833 Kentucky and his children, because I think but can't prove that two of his daughters married two of Benjamin Patterson's sons: Mathew Thomas who is identified as Nathan Thomas in the Christian County Marriage records or I think that Nathan may be Mathew and John Albert Patterson.

My Christian County research was primarily BURKHART, but from that I branched off into SHIPMAN, MELTON. I haven't been able to do much research for the past several months sincle my computer crashed. But Santa (my son) was good to me and brought me a new computer for Christmas so hopefully I'll be able to retreive my data from my old hard drive and be able to get back in the the research game. I too enjoy reading all the e-mails from the list. Joy (Bowman) Burkhart Warsaw, Missouri

Kerry, I am looking at John Monroe Cook married to Margaret Frances Cofer Their son Ellec Cook was married to Margaret Patterson And I have William M. Cook married to Nancy McCoy Their daughter Alice Cook married to Modrel Clarence Payne, his father was Abraham Payne, mother was Margaret Glenn. Their daughter Laura Cook was married to Matthew L Patterson Wanda

I am tracking the following families which lived in Christian County. Several of these families moved back and forth between the Christian County area and south into Marion County, Arkansas and all counties in between. I am especially interested in exchanging information with other descendants of my ggg-grandparents Greenfield B. Melton & his wife Alicey Melton [they were cousins, so I have double Melton cousins]. Families that I am related to are MELTON, SASSER, PIGG, GIMLIN, STALLINGS, TABOR/TABER, YOACHUM. I keep my records on Rootsweb.com under the database "megsmess", please let me know if you find any errors. I look forward to sharing information. Margaret Graham Luther, OK
