Reflections looks back at Jefferson County history through interesting short stories and photographs of local people, places and events from the 1800s through the 1950s. Reflections is available at the Jefferson County Library - Northwest Library at 3033 High Ridge Blvd. Price - $6. Also you may purchase a copy by sending a check payable to the Jefferson County Genealogical Society, P.O. Box 1342, High Ridge, MO 63049. Please add an additional $3 for postage. Some of the articles in the first edition include: House Springs Park & Pool, Jury Duty in 1865, Brimmer Family, Dance Bands of Yesterday, Oliver Cromwell Family, Jefferson Co. Emigration Society and much more. Christine Merseal JCGS President --------------------------------- Start your day with Yahoo! - make it your home page

I'm not certain who it was now, but one of the listers I helped in past years sent a Jefferson County marriage record to me for: W.D. BRADSHAW and Lucy ACHTER, and 2 news clippings (obit 1940 and birthday notice 1942) for Louisa GEISER / GESER BRADSHAW. Before I delete these, if anyone is researching these surnames, and is interested, I can send a copy. -Kay, FL (Just for my memory's sake, it's filed in my AOL downloads.)

Hello List, I want to apologize to the list for this e-mail. Last night I tried to send an e-mail to several people who have been very nice to me in the past and something went wrong. I was told by someone that it must have been my sever that was having problems. I did receive a message about my ISP. Several people said that they received my e-mail about 50 times. WOW, I can understand if they are upset with me. I can only say I am very sorry and I will be more careful in the future. Please forgive me. Thank again to the list for allowing me to send this open apologize. Sorry for my mistake. Janet

Is there a location I can go to to find marriage and death information for Jefferson County residents. My great great grandparents were Archibald Brooks and Rosanna Hull, and were married and died in Jefferson County Missouri. I can find a lot of information for other Missouri Counties but not Jefferson County so thought there is a connection that I am missing. I have all the census records through Ancestry.com but they do not have Jefferson County marriage and death information.

I live in here. It's now a rural area, not gone, just not a "town" as it once was. In about the 1950's the post office was abolished. LaDonna (Pittman) Garner Jefferson Co.

Kinsey, Mo. is in Ste. Genevieve County. Go south on 55 highway. Turn right on "DD" highway. Go about 2 or 3 miles and turn left on Kinsey road. The town is just a spot in the road. There used to be a post office and such many, many years ago. When my dad was growing up in the 1920's and 30's they got their male at the Kinsey post office. I think there is an article about Kinsey, Mo. on this web site: www.stegenevieve.net I hope this helps you. Need further info, please contact me. I'd be glad to help. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike Flannigan" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, July 17, 2005 8:08 AM Subject: [MOJEFFER] Re: Kinsey, Mo > > I list Kinsey in Sainte Genevieve county as gone - a ghost town: > http://www.topozone.com/map.asp?lat=38.03111&lon=-90.30000&datum=NAD27&s=50&size=l > > > Mike > > > > > Subject: Kinsey, Mo > > Date: Sat, 16 Jul 2005 08:54:51 EDT > > From: [email protected] > > To: [email protected] > > > > Trying ot locate Kinsey, Mo.
