Hi, I have just joined the list so here goes. Over the course of time, I have come across the Metford name as a middle name and a first name in the Huskey family. I was hoping that you might have some information on the wives that married into the family. Metford is such a rare name, that most Metfords in the world are related (descended from the same Quaker couple who m. in 1658). Here are the people I've come across in Jefferson Co, MO: (1) 1 Andrew J. Huskey (31 Jul 1872 - 31 Oct 1952) & Florence Wideman (2) 1.2 Standly Edward Huskey (4 Nov 1892 - 18 Jan 1943) (2) 1.3 Clyde Charles Huskey (16 Dec 1896 - 16 Dec 1972) (2) 1.3 Hughey Raymond Huskey (13 Oct 1900 - 11 Sep 1963) & Golden Schrum (3) 1.4.1 Richard Metford Huskey (17 Apr 1920 - 17 Jan 1977) The second one I have is a MO birth, but the gentleman lived in KY. The name is such that I doubt he is unrelated to the above Huskeys: (1) 1 Metford Huskey (23 Jan 1896 - Apr 1964) & Miss Roderick (2) 1.1 Joseph Metford Huskey (4 Mar 1919 - 17 Mar 1991) Res. Louisville, KY Also of Jefferson Co., MO, I found the name of Metford Coxell. Perhaps the Croxells and Huskeys are related? Jefferson Co., MO burial (this came from an archive of burials): Mollie F.
