That home was subsequently owned by Vernon and Florene (Jones) Snow. That place is between John & Susan's former home at Organna and the McBride Cemetery where they are buried. My sister and I now own that home where John and Susan lived. It was bought from their heirs by my grandfather, Joseph Edward Brown. I have the deeds for that purchase. I also have a picture of the home of John and Susan at Organna taken approximately 1912. If anyone is interested, I will attach it to an e-mail to them. I don't believe we can attach to a message to rootsweb. Please be quick with a request as I am going to Laclede Co., MO this weekend and will be staying at what we call The Cap Lindsay place. Let's all think about our ancestors this Memorial weekend. I will be at McBride Cemetery thinking about mine. Frank Brown Kansas City
