I have info on a Martha LETHCOE born 1859 from Douglas county, Missouri who married Jahu (John) Howard in Douglas county around the area of Arno. Their children were Willis Ananias Howard born March 24, 1879 in Arno, Douglas county, and Stella Howard born c1895 in Arno area. Family moved to Payne county Oklahoma around 1900-1910. Martha died 1917 and is buried in Bethel Cemetery in Glencoe Ok. Her husband Jahu died 1934 and is buried at Bethel also. No other info on Martha's siblings or parents from Douglas county.

In a message dated 8/9/01 9:01:39 PM Central Daylight Time, [email protected] writes: << Linzey Dobbs - Great Great Grandfather >> Does anyone know how this man is related to the husband of Pheobe Alexander Dobbs? Or am I confusing myself and she wasn't an Alexander but a Freeman or James. I just remember my grandmother always refering to her as Aunt Febe Dobbs. Does anyone know if these Dobbs groups are related? It has been quite a few years but I used to have occasional letters from Febe's surviving son who lived in IL but I have heard from him in a long time. Did that family come to the Reunions? Thanks! Beth Peck Cooper

Cherly, I will probably be going to Missouri in October for a Family Reunion (Dobbs). I know Yates very well. All of the LeRoy's are buried there along with lots of Woolman,s. We are probably related -distant cousins. My Grandfather Peter Richard LeRoy's mother was Almira Woolman. My E-Mail is [email protected] My address is 7352 Parkrest Drive - Lavista, Ne. 68128-2001. I will be happy to take the pictures for you. Please send me you home address and E-Mail address.

I know there is a cousin in West Plains that has done years of research on the Woolman's. Plan to talk to him when I get down there.Will be waiting to hear from you - Bonnie

I have a Synthia Hayes, could be Haynes that married a Benjamin Hampton.

My Hamptons were in Tennessee. I just found ut Benjamin Hampton and Synthia Hayes were the parents of Elizabeth (Eliza) M. Hampton.I'm still digging too. If I find something, I'll be in touch. Eliza married William Ira Ross and later, Charles Thompson. Sonja

Dear Lou Nell I know from marriage records that a John Arnold married Cynthia Hutchinson June 22, 1890 in Douglas County, Missouri. I know that this Cynthia was the daughter of Thomas Hutchinson . . . at least the marriage ceremony was held at Thomas Hutchinson's home. The family "story" is that John's second wife died during pregnancy and that the child was stilborn. Thomas Hutchinson's daughter, Cynthia Hutchinson was born November 19, 1873 and died January 1, 1891. This definitely fits the time frame. Gone But Not Forgotten: Cemetery Survey of the Eastern District, Douglas County: Denlow Cemetery: Arnold, Cynthia (Hutchinson) dau of T.B. & Elizabeth Nov 19, 1873-Jan 1, 1891 Since My John Arnold was the only John Arnold around Douglas County OF MARRIAGEABLE AGE at the time, I feel I that his second wife just has to be Cynthia. I guess I will never know for sure unless someone, somewhere in the Hutchinson family knows. For now . . . I am going to say that my John married Cynthia. Now I have to prove wife #1. "Family history" says that they were divorced soon after their marriage. I (know?) # 2 is Cynthia #3 is Parthena Hammons #4 is Ada Twitty #1 A John Arnold married Sarah E. Morris February 05, 1889 in Ava, Douglas County, Missouri. This might be that first marriage. John W. Morris and his 1st wife, Martha Embrey had a daughter Sarah E. The 1880 Census for Douglas County, Missouri, Campbell Township lists: 94-94 Morris John W. WM 30 Farmer MO MO Caroline WF 29 Wife Keeping House MO MO TN Nancy J. WF 12 Dau At home MO MO MO Sarah E. WF 11 Dau At home MO MO MO Rebecca E. WF 8 Dau At home MO MO MO Franklin WM 6 Son At home MO MO MO Merandy Md. WF 3 Dau At home MO MO MO Thos. W. WM 2 Son At home MO MO MO A Morris researcher knows that John W. Morris and Martha Embrey's daughter, Sarah E. married Joseph (Babe) Walker in 1893 either Webster or Douglas Co. Mo. She doesn't discount the fact that Sarah could have been married before. Again, this would all fit the time-line. Thanks for the information. Linda

Sonja, I don't know if your Ross and Robertson families are the same as mine or not. Since I posted I have found more information. First: Sarah Ross was probably born in Marion County Tennesse in 1822, and married Malachi Robertson in 1842, Moved to Douglas County in 1855. Sarah Ross' father, according to The History Douglas County And Families, book was John Ross. It is interesting you mentioned the surname Thompson, because Sarah nad Malachi had a daughter, Mahala b. 1858, who married James Thompson. James and Mahala were my great grandparents. Also, James' Father, William James Thompson, and grandfather, Calvin Thompson lived for a while in North Western Tennessee, where Calvin was a Methodist Circuit Rider.
