Surnames: MITCHELL, AMELUNG Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/zMB.2ACI/862 Message Board Post: I am looking for more information on John and Verna W. MITCHELL who lived in Iron County. I have only found two children for them although the 1910 Iron Co census indicates Verna had 6 children with three surviving. Children I know of are: Lillie C. MITCHELL, born 23 Mar 1870 in Missouri and married John AMELUNG in 1888, and George MITCHELL who resided in Kansas City, KS in 1936 when he is listed on Lillie's daughter's obituary. I find Verna living with Lillie and John AMELUNG in the 1910 and 1920 census records for Pilot Knob, Iron Co., MO. She was born circa 1834 in Ohio (per 1910 census) or Illinois with both parents born in Ohio (per 1920 census). I suspect that Verna has died by March 1922 since that is when her daughter, Lillie, left John Amelung and moved to St. Louis. I can't find Verna nor John on any earlier census records but know they had to be in Iron Co. by 1888 when Verna gave permission for her underage daughter to marry John AMELUNG. Does any of this ring a bell with anyone? I've hit a roadblock with this family. Marcine Lohman
