Barry County. (alternatively, fine-L@rootsweb.com.....) I show Frank and Laura as being married in Monett 26 Feb 1911; I'm not sure if Frank ever lived there, but I know his son Dayne lived across the road from my granddad Other Purcell, a couple miles north of Seligman, by the 1950's. They were also distant cousins (Ote's mom was a Fine), although it's only in the last year or two I've known what the relationship is. I think you'll get a bunch more info if you search the archives of fine-L, or come join us over there, though.....<g> --pig, Fine descendant On 9/28/02 1:06, <apotutu@earthlink.net> shared this thought: > Am unable to locate Franklin and laura Fine and their family in Springfield on > any SSDI or Census I have searched.

Hi Megan, This is barbara cousin to Claude Fine. Been trying to find Laura and Frank in Census but no luck. Claude says they always lived in Springfield. My GreatGrandfather was Frank's oldest brother John Wesley Fine.

Well, if they were married in Monett, and aren't in Greene, and turn out not to be in Barry (dunno about that yet), next place I'd try is Lawrence County..... Descendants have been known to be wrong, you know. <g> And I can see the possibility of Claude getting that *impression* based on where they lived much later, combined with earlier stories that simply put them within the general area....and one can easily be in "the Springfield area" (depending on definition) and be in Lawrence or Christian counties. But if Frank grew up around Seligman, and Dayne ended up there (on the same farm, if I'm not mistaken), I'd be checking Barry County first---if Frank ended up in Springfield eventually, it might not be until after the farm was handed over to Dayne, which would be later than any available census (say, 1940's-50's some time); Springfield might have been their "retirement home". --pig On 9/28/02 16:06, <apotutu@earthlink.net> shared this thought: > Hi Megan, > This is barbara cousin to Claude Fine.
