These days my toddler and my home computer can't be managed at the same time. Don't give up on the Web page. It should be there. The old Horton Hotel was more commonly known as the Del Monico or Wells House. I have pictures in books and will scan you a copy. I will try to figure out if the current building standing next to it is the same one as the 1950's. I know that one building was replaced but without a photo in front of me I cannot be sure. Tammy

I appreciate the info. I tried to look up your website, but it kept coming up 404 error. Could you please send me a copy of that picture. Also could you check your information for a picture of the old "Horton Hotel"? It was located where the old Homestead Restaurant was on the SSE corner of the square. I think this was somewhere around the early 1900's. Also next door to that building was a building that my great grandfather had a cleaning business back in the 40's & 50's. Do yu by chance have a picture of that building? Thanks again for your help. Teresa

Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/CKB.2ACE/1758.1 Message Board Post: Teresa, I seriously doubt that the current Gamble building was around in 1850. Greenfield was a pioneer town at the time. The earliest photo I have found (1866) shows one side of the square and the buidlings are wood framed with one brick building, nothing fancy like the entrance to the Gamble building. The Gamble building was home to Wetzel's Shoe Store around the 1910's. You can see a photo of that on my Dade County web page at http://www.dadecountymissouri.20m.com/photo.html. It is in the middle of the fifth row, bottom photo. I did find this entry in the book Printing Press History (Greenfield Newspaper History: Dade County...Newspaper Extractions From the earliest Dade County Paper through 1888.), Published by the Dade County Missouri Genealogy Society, August 2002, pg. 120: From the Advocate, 6 Dec 1883 "Mr. Nilson is at the City Drug Store. Mr. Willis Waters, Jewler, late of Nevada, Mo. also at City Drug Store." and (four months later) on page 109: From the Advocate 12 April, 1883: "W. H. Wetzel has bought the lot adjoining the Postoffice, and we learn that he will build a two-story brick business house this summer. Before six, months, the west side will be a solid block of brick buildings." The Gamble building is on the Southwest corner of the square so the second excerpt appears to be for that building (Wetzel's Shoe Store), however, I do not find anything on Wetzel's having a drug store. Also, this second excerpt appears four months after the mention of the drug store and jewelry store. It sounds like the City Drug store might have been a two story building as was/is common on the square. No location is give as this is just an excerpt not an ad. I would question if there would be a jewlery store in a frontier town in 1850 although it is not impossible. I have one other book I can check called Pictoral Memories of Dade County Missouri, published by the Dade County Missouri Historical Society, 1991, as well at two other books by them. I will have to take a maginifying glass and check all the photos. Also, you might want to write to the Dade County Historical Society at P.O. Box 344, Greenfield, MO 65661 and see if they can help you. I would suggest including a S.A.S.E. and be patient. Most of the members are older and there are not enough volunteers. Good luck and if I can help any other way please ask. Tammy

My Grandmother used to work at the store and she told us it was back around 1850. She had found some rings in a box that said 1850, that's why I'm assuming that it was a Jewelry Store around that time. She gave each of her granddaughter's one of these rings, and I'm the only one who still has one. If anyone can help me solve this question, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank You Teresa

On a similar form dated 17 Oct 1898, to the same question he wrote, "Grace M. Blakesley born Nov 25, 1876 Adopted. Fred Blakesley born March 13, 1885 Adopted." James H. Blakesley was the son of Benjamin T. Blakesley and Abigail O'Dell of Busti, Chautauqua Co., NY. Arena I. Rounds was the daughter of Reuben B. Rounds and Anna B. Gregory.

I am looking for information, including place of burial and dates of death, on Thomas A. PAYNE and family. Thomas was born about 1870. In the 1880 census, he is listed as a son with William and Amanda PAYNE in Dade Co., Center Township. In the 1900 census, he is with Amanda PAYNE and sister, Mary in Dade Co., Washington Township. In the 1920 census, Thomas PAYNE is listed as a lodger in the home of Lee YINGST in Dade Co. and in west Everton City, Rock Prairie Township. Thanks, Lynda

Dade, pioneer settler; the county seat is Greenfield." As you can see, Dade County was in existence long before 1888. It sounds like people just weren't sure where she was born. I'd go with any record that she herself gave the information for, if possible. Good luck.

My Grandmother, Mary Myrtle (Williamson) Tabor's death cert. said she was born in Dade Co.. My dad's 1930 census states she was born in OK. My dad's brother's application for his SS said she was born in Indian Territory. Is it possible that the Indian Territory in OK. extended all the way up into Dade Co. in 1888? Sure could use some assistance with this. Thank you, Juanita
