Thank you, Bettye - Glad to get the obit, as well, I didn't have one. Eliz. Dawson Trask, was the 2nd wife of Marvin W. Trask, mentioned below, & was the mother of Eugene and James S. In addition, a sister, Lena Sabina or Sabina Lena Trask married Mary Johnson's brother, Nelse Johnson. Nelse was born Nelse Jorgensen, Mary was born Mary Jorgensdatter (in Denmark) and they were siblings of my grgrandfather Robert P. Johnson, who married, by the way, Mary Jane Harper, sister-in-law of John S. Mudd. So the end result is that Eugene Trask and John S. Mudd were brothers-in-law - and all of this took place in Crawford Co.!!!! So, if you or anyone else on the list, run across any of those names anywhere, I would love to hear about it. So far I cannot link Mary Jane Harper to any of the Crawford Co. Harpers (she was born in Washington Co., I believe) - I have tried as have several other Crawford Co. researchers. But I decided to "make an end run", as they say - try a new approach. Thanks again for your assistance. Eleanor -----Original Message----- From: B.

Eleanor, I do find Eugene Trask (1855-1919) listed in Steelville City Cemetery. Listing also gives the following obituary: Eugene Trask was married to Miss Mary Johnson May 14, 1877. Nine children came to bless their home, eight of whom survive the father, Jorgen, Gladstone and Leslie; Mrs. C. E. Jamison, Mrs. N. M. Lawrence, Mrs. Nina Beeks, Mrs. E. O. Glover; and Marie Trask. Also listed right below him is listing for Elizabeth Dawson Trask, wife of Marvin W., Oct. 1, 1826 - June 19, 1897 age 70 years, 8 months, 18 days. Also, I find a listing at Steelville City Cemetery for a James Steel Trask who appears to be related to Eugene Trask. All that is given for him is obituary: James Steel Trask died at the residence of Mrs. Mary Achurch in Steelville on Sunday morning April 8, 1906 from heart failure. He had been a sufferer for a number of months with kidney trouble. He was son of the late Marvin W. and Alice Steen (?) Trask, and was born April 17, 1836, a brother of Mrs. Lavica Wood of near Steelville, a half brother of Mrs. G. S. McIntosh and Eugene Trask of Steelville, Mrs. Lenz Johnson of Fort Scott Kansas and Dr's J.S. and H.E.C. Trask of California. The funeral was conducted at the C. P. Church by Rev. W. J. Todd on Monday at two o'clock. The interment took place at Steelville cemetery. Bettye > Sorry, forgot to ask if someone could tell me if Eugene Trask is buried > in Steelville?
