I've had 2 responses about the Catholic Cemetery in Neier, Franklin Co., MO. One said it is St. Joseph, the other said it is St. John. Can anyone tell me for sure which is correct? Or are there 2 there??? Joanne Morgan

Is there a marriage book for about 1873-1880? I need the listings for REHME, HIMMELBERG and AHOLT/ARHOLT. Anything would be greatly appreciated. These are Catholic families. Henry Himmelberg married A Maria Rehme (6-4-1876) & Mary Holtmeyer (4-20-1880). Holtmeyer was Henry's second wife. My line is from Rehme. I need some starting point on the Rehme's. I do know that there was a Ben & Victor Rehme in the Franklin County area. Thanks, Pat

Would someone who has access to a county marriage book mind doing a look up for me? I am researching my Blankenship line and coming to nothing but deadends. I am looking for the marriage date and location of Calvin Blankenship and Deliah as well as William Blankenship and Pamelia (Pamela) Jane/June. Any help would be appreciated. Please let me know if you are able to find anything and if you couldn't. Also, if anyone else is researching the Blankenship line In Missouri, especially in the  south/Southwest region of Missouri, please me let know as there may be an unknown connection. Thank you for your time and help. Madison Coleman

I have several pictures from 1928. They are of Florence Herrell and Cleo in Gray Summit, Missouri. Florence is my ancestor, but I have no idea who Cleo is. There is no last name. As far as a know, she is not part of my family. It is hard to guess her age, but I would assume she is around 30. She also where's glasses. If you have a family member named Cleo that you think may have been in Gray Summit in 1928, I would be happy to share the pictures with you. Please E-Mail me privately if you are interested.

There are several online phone directories. I use http://www.switchboard.com and http://www.anywho.com. Try one of these if you wish to find someone who still lives in the area.

Hi, I went to school with David Broemmelsick, his mother is a Strothcamp, her father owned and operated Stothcamp Paint Store in Manchester, Mo. His name was Harry. I looked up the store's phone Number and it is (636) 227-5225. Mrs Broemmelsick who lives in Manchester resides at 344 Old Meramac Station, her Number is (636) 227-2188 if I remember right her name is Dee. Her sister Betty Strothcamp was citizen of the year last year and honored at the Manchester Homecoming. If they are not related to this photo maybe they could direct you to who is. Good Luck.

My first suggestion would be to check a local phone directory and I would have done so but don't have one here. I do have a few notes in my database that may, or may not, be of some help, at least in figuring out WHERE some descendants might be living. Strothkamp. There is a Christopher, Harry, Bill, and Matthew listed in the McDermott history. Strothkamp. There is an Eliza in the 1840 census per Kiel's book. Strothkamp, William, of Manchester, MO, who was a 17-year-old student at Eureka High School, was killed when he was a passenger in a car that skidded in front of a tractor trailer on Rt 66 per 1/9/1953 issue of Pacific Transcript. Strothcamp (spelled as found), Louis Edward, son of Lawrence Frederick and Matilda Strothcamp, nee Halmach, was born near Japan 10/17/1878 and died at Sullivan 2/18/1953 at age 74. Married M???

I've "rescued" an old photograph of Judith STROTHCAMP taken at the Zoff Studio in Washington, MO. I would guess that the photograph was taken in the 1880's or 1890's and that Judith is in her 60's+ at the time the photo was taken. I'd like to find Judith's family and return the photograph to them so that it can be passed from generation to generation, however, to date I've been unable to locate any relatives. If you are a member of this family or know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley

Seeking info on Asa Wiley SCOTT (b1790 Liddesdale Scotland - d unknown) and Mary "Polly" Poppy PEPPER (b 17 Jul 1809 NC - d 1885 Howell Co MO). Asa and Mary were married 3 NOV 1836 in Franklin Co MO. They are listed in the 1850 Franklin Co MO Federal Census, Family #1027, with their three children. When they arrived in Franklin County and when they left are a mystery at this time. Would like to contact others researching this family. Also any tidbits of info, any suggestions, etc. would be most appreciated. Thank you.

Hello List, I thought I would try my tree and see if there is anyone out there that may be tracing their lines through some of the children I have nothing but birthdates on.

There seems to be some misconception from a previous message. I am getting many lookup requests for bio's for Franklin, Gasconade County, etc. I do not have time to honor lookup requests for any counties. I also do not have access to my books at this time. It is my plan to put them online as time permits sometime before I die. I am currently putting obituaries online submitted by other people from the old books for you to search yourself. These are for other counties. I thought I did see someone else offer to do lookups, whoever that was, please resend your offer. If you are searching for a name that may be in an obituary or biography, try the archives search engine. It will lead you to a list of possible files for you to search. http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/ussearch.htm Thanks. -- Joe L.

Good Morning! This is my first posting to the site and I am hoping that someone in Missouri will have a connection with my family. I have been researching this line for about 4 years and have hit brick walls. Last night I had it, and subscribed to every single Missouri county, so maybe I will have a breakthrough, or at least help someone else. This may be quite lengthy and if anyone needs clearification if I dont make sense somewhere, please let me know: Calvin Blankenship was born in Tennessee est. 1820-25. I know absolutely nothing about his parents, but in 1850 he was living next door to Wiliam and Pamela Jane Blankenship and their daughter Nancy, who was born in 1850. William was born a year or two after Calvin and he was also born in TN. I have to assume that they are related if not brothers. Calvin first appeared on the Texas County, District # 98 1850 Census with his Wife Delilah who was born in IL, her parents were born in TN, and three children: William P Angeline and James. His son, William was born abt. 1844 in MO so that indicates that they were in Missouri at least by 1844. By 1860, it is now called Boon Township and they have five more children : Nancy, Franklin, John, David, and Martha E. Calvin enlisted into the Confederate Army in 1861 and died in 1864. No military record exsists other than his Muster Roll. Then in 1870 and 1880 Delilah is the head of the household and in 1870 Henry (my gg grandfather) has appeared on the census for the first time. Deliah died between 1880-1883. She and Calvin are buried at Mitchell Cemetery. CALVIN AND DELIAH's CHildren and decendents I have only been about to locate two of Calvin's children on the census other than my gg grandfather: David b. abt 1857 married Margaret Sullins (daughter of Reuben Sullins) on May 6, 1886 in Licking Missouri. They had sic children: Dolts, Mary,Elmer,Alta (married Thomas Richards),Maggie, and lola. Angeline married Logan D. Harper. They had four girls: 1. Nancy Eliza : b. 1866 m. John W. Mitchell on July 23,1883 (Franklin Blankenship consented) in Licking, Missouri. They had 8 kids:William H, Carl L, Winnie M, Alma L, David, Justine, Eddie and Henry. 2. Mary, died young 3. Lucy b. 1870 married a Williams 4. Laura Ellen b. Sept 16, 1873 m. Edward Buckner (son of Thomas and Viney Buckner) had 6 kids: William Franklin b. Feb 10, 1893 m. Bertha Murr Logan James b. April 27, 1895 d. Mar 22, 1988 m. Thimsen Scranko and Mary Cochran Ethel b. July 1897 m. Hebrew Sukkins on Jan 30, 1915 Bryan b. Dec 22, 1899 m. Blanche Hobson Charles Allen b. Dec 22, 1903 m. Nell Hobson, d. April 2,1973 Ava Ruth b. Oct 18, 1905 Henry married Lillie Ellen Smith, daughter of James E. Madison Smith and Margaret Ellen Stricklin. They had 2 sons, Irven who married Rhoda Ormsby and Virgil who married Grace Viola Adkins, daughter of Charles Adkins and Hester Gatewood. I hope I made sense, and more importantly, a connection!
