Roberta, i live in webb city and never heard of joplin st here there is one in joplin but a block on either side isnt prairie . joplin is 1 blk off main st . if i find anything i will let you know. EVA

Roberta, Going west from Main St in Joplin, you have Joplin St, Wall, and Pearl. The only other thing I can think of is that some street names may have changed since 1910. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. You might also try going to mapquest.com. When you search for a street address, just put in "P" or "Pra" and see what it comes up with. You never have to type in the whole name of a street on Mapquest b/c it will find the closest match.

Is anyone out there familiar with the Webb City area? I have a subscription from Family Tree Maker for the 1910 census. I have located my great great grandfather George Wilson on the census living with his daughter Lola. In the margin next to their name is a street name. The image is poor and I can't read it. It appears to read Pra_ _ _ Ave. The census taker listed this street after canvassing Joplin ?. Can anyone tell me if there is a Prairie Ave or what name the street is one block over from a Joplin St. or Ave.? Roberta

Hi Everyone, Many of you might not be aware that as of October 23, 2002, the 1880 US Census Index, 1881 Canadian and 1881 British Census Indexes are available free at: http://www.familysearch.org These are from the LDS Church which have also had these indexes on CD's for quite some time. Keep checking their website for more as they seem to be adding more to their website all the time. Happy hunting!!!! Bev Reinhardt

Hi All, I am new to the list and I wonder if anyone is researching Thomas and Lydia Huddleston? The Huddleston's came from Hancock County Illinois after the 1870 census. I believe they may have died in Joplin but I have no idea as to when. Does someone have a cemetery book for Joplin and would you check to see if the Huddleston's are on it? Thanks and I really need help with them. Roberta Summers.

Hi All, If someone has cemetery books for Joplin, MO will you check to see if there is a Lizzie Scott listed. The 1900 census says she was born in 1882. She was the wife of Charles E. Scott, lived in Joplin in 1910. By 1920 Charles was remarried and living in Everett, Washington.
