I have copies of three pages of the Greene County Marriage Index Records (pages 25, 68, and 83) covering 1874-1893. These include Grooms with the surnames COPE through COX, LEMMON through LITTRELL, and MURRAY through NEFF. The brides names are not in alphabetical order. If you would like a lookup, please put LOOKUP GREENE CO MO MARRIAGE in the subject line; otherwise, your email could be deleted without being opened. Jackie

Surnames: FISHER,FITZWATER,LONG,WILMES,HARPER,WILLIAMS Classification: Queries Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/IKB.2ACE/1386.1.1 Message Board Post: Greg, My great grandfather Samuel M. Fisher lived in Springfield, Missouri from the late 1880s until his death in 1908. He had four children: George Nicholas (my grandfather), William, Lizzie Annie, and Eugene Samuel. Eugene had no children and died in Florida in1951/2. George Fisher, my grandfather had four sons two of whom died in infancy. The other two were Geroge Frederick (Fred) my father born in 1901 in Polk County, and John Theodore born in 1904 in Pok County. I do not know what happened to William. I can find no information about him. I don't know if this William in Maple Park Cemetery might be related or not. Samuel M., his wife and daughter Lizzie Ann are all buried in Maple Park. Hope this hasn't been too confusing. Do you know anything about your George Fisher? Chris

You will have to send for the death cert. They aren't listed in the Counties. Dept. of Health P.O. Box 570 Jefferson City, MO 65102-0570 573-751-6400 or write to Local History & Genealogy Section springfield-Greene Co Library 4653 S Campbell Ave Springfield, MO 65810 417-874-8110 They may be able to find a record of his death.

Is there some kind person that could look up a death certificate for a Jess/Jesse Lee. He was living in a Boarding House or the Alms House in Springfield, MO. We have figured he died around 1951/52 give or take a year. I can't get no one to help me with this. Any help would be most appreciated, thanks. Barbara

WISEnut Search Engine New Internet search engines are appearing all the time. For genealogists, another excellent new search engine is WISEnut at <A HREF="http://www.wisenut.com/">http://www.wisenut.com/</A> . WISEnut claims to have approximately 1.5 billion Web pages indexed and is robust enough to quickly search them and produce excellent and categorized results. By entering your ancestor's name, all in lower case and enclosed in quotation marks, WISEnut will search its massive index and present you with what it logically believes the most germane matches are. If WISEnut finds enough matches, it also presents results in what is called WISEguide categories. Each category will be titled, followed with a number enclosed in parentheses indicating the number of links in the category. WISEguide categories allow you easy access to logically grouped materials. This is a nice addition to the collection of search engines available to help the genealogical researcher.

Janet- I note that you are researching the Dodson surname. In our family files is Myrtle Dodson, born about 1898, who married Oliver Horace Price (his Price family is one I actively research). I have names of Myrtle's mother and father and her siblings-and the names of Myrtle's children with Price-and the names of three grandchildren. Is she one of your Dodsons, and would you have more information on her descendants that you might share? -I should communicate with you on the Wood surname at some point, too- that name is in our files, as well. -Becky (Chandler) Aldridge

Read the Back of the Tombstone When conducting on-site cemetery research, be sure to read the entire tombstone. Not everything on a tombstone is carved on the front. It is not unusual to find inscriptions on both the front and back of a stone, and even on the edges. You may find the name and vital date on the face, an epitaph or poem on the back, the names of spouse, parents, children, and other information carved elsewhere. Look for initials, names, and/or the company name of the stonemason on the stone. Often the carver chiseled his mark into a stone as a form of advertisement. You may be able to research the carver and therefore locate other records concerning the person who ordered and paid for the tombstone, its date of installation, and other data.
