Would you please look in the Lewis Co. Cemetary Book for Thomas Evans and his wife Martha. Thank you so much. Donna in Oregon

In you research have you run across mention of a Wm. Felix & Mary Gearhart Lackland Green, possibly of the LaGrange area? She first married a Lackland and married Felix Green as a widow in 1848. They were my gr.gr.grandparents.

I just found a newspaper clipping that says "Oak Bluff Cemetery, Canton" but...did he get moved or has this been a wild goose chase with the goose watching us all run around? (ya know what I mean?)

I would have never thought to look at that site, simply slipped my mind that it even existed. I have a cousin that lives in Williamstown, west of Monticello, she has lived there all her life an may know about the Little Mountain Cemetery and the Old Reese Cemetery, I'll write her and ask if she knows where they may be found an get directions if possible for you. I'll keep in mind your cousin in Hannibal, seems to me that there was some info that I needed on another family member that lived in Hannibal and who died in 1921, but I'll need to look up just what it was that I wanted to find out about the family first before I ask you to contact them. I'll get back to this after Christmas. My Best Regards Lorraine

Green >From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search James Stephen Green (February 28, 1817 - January 19, 1870 was a United States Representative and Senator from Missouri. Born near Rectortown, Virginia, he attended the common schools and moved to Alabama and then to Missouri about 1838. He studied law, was admitted to the bar in 1840 and commenced practice in Monticello, Missouri. He was a delegate to the State constitutional convention in 1845 and was elected as a Democrat to the Thirtieth and Thirty-first Congresses, serving from March 4, 1847 to March 3, 1851. He was not a candidate for renomination in 1850, and was Charge d'Affaires to Colombia in 1853-1854. He was appointed Minister Resident in June 1854, but did not present his credentials; he was elected to the Thirty-fifth Congress, but did not take his seat, having been elected to the U.S. Senate to fill the vacancy in the term commencing March 4, 1855, and served from January 12, 1857, to March 3, 1861. While in the Senate, he was chairman of the Committee on Territories (Thirty-fifth and Thirty-sixth Congresses). Green died in St. Louis, Missouri in 1870; interment was in the Old Cemetery, Canton.

There was also a Reese Cemetery in Lewis Co. that was bulldozed sometime ago. It said it was overgrown in 1880 and only a partial stone for a William Reese was remaining. These readings are from stones, so, there was a readable stone sometime in the 1980's.

I think I just found the answer to my own query. Looks like she is buried in "Little Mountain Cemetery" in Monticello. (Just got some fresh intel from a new cousin, hadn't read it very thoroughly...) But--I suppose I should verify this info, so maybe my lookup request is not so silly. And, if anyone is a graveyard photographer, I'd love to get a picture of her gravestone, if there IS one, of course. Funny how info floats to the top when you stir the family history pot... Thanks!

I was afraid that it was just going to tell you what you already knew--it was gone! It's funny--right after I had posted my other request on this list for assistance regarding the burial place of my GGG-G'mother (Susan Barritt Reese), I stumbled upon it in some genealogy stuff I just received from a new cousin I'd found in a GenForum posting. She (Susan Barritt Reese) is buried in Little Mountain Cemetery in Monticello. I also just now noticed that her son Addison (my grandfather's law partner as well as his brother-in-law, and a local Judge) is buried in "the Old Reese Cemetery" somewhere in Lewis County. Now I need to go back to that very website and look to see if either of those is on that list! I am just a beginner in this genealogical research, but I'm willing to help in any way I can. I also have a cousin by marriage that lives in Hannibal if you need any other local contacts...good luck in your search! Susan

My maternal grandmother was Vera Reese Bankhead, youngest child of Eli Hugh & Mary E. Johnson Reese. This Rees/Reese family came to Pike Co, MO from Warren Co, KY ca l840. I'm wondering if your Rees' are any relation?

I do so much appreciate your sending this information on the 'Old Cemetery' at Canton, Mo. I do feel that this is where my 3rd ggrandmother was buried. Now that I know just the location, I know this was some 4 or 5 blocks where she lived when she died, as I have a copy of the notice that was sent to folks stating when and where her funeral was to be held, but with no mention of burial location added...so this info you found also said it was once owned by the Christian Church and burials ceased in 1875, which was the year she died.......So as you can see this will help me in my search as I know most of her family was buried in Forest Grove, later. It is quite possible that the family had her reintered in their plots...I'll have to make a trip up there this coming summer and see if I can figure this all out. Another thing about this find was the family were members of the Christian Church as attested to by the Obits found of May Ramson dau! ghter-in-law and grand daughter. I'll be pleased to keep you in mind as I do this research and if you wish you may send the names to me too, and I'll see if anything turns up for either of us. Contact me off list for that if you wish. It will not be until the coming summer time before I will go up to Canton, the weather is to bad in the winter to trudge around a cemetery. Again many thank you Lorraine

(born in 1780, KY) She is my GGG-G'mother, her daughter Elizabeth Reese married my GG-G'father James Stephen Green, who was first an attorney, then elected to state gov't, then served in Congress as Rep then Senator for MO right before the Civil War. James and his brother Martin E. Green had a sawmill (in Ralls Co?) for a time, but the family mostly lived in and around Monticello and Canton. My GG-g'parents James and Elizabeth married in Lewis Co in 1841, so she probably came out west (to be with her daughter) from KY where she had lived with her husband George Rees(e) who died in/abt 1835. If there are any researchers willing to do fee-for-service lookups, I'm willing to do that! Thank you, everyone!!
