    3. These girls you mentioned sound like the children that are attributed to Lytle Lambeth and Elizabeth Hawkins. Yes, I would like to have more information. I'm now especially curious as to how these girls got attributed to Lytle over the years. And now am wondering if Elizabeth and Lytle were ever a couple. Any light that can be thrown on this mystery would be greatly appreciated.

    1. Re: [MOMARIES] Elizabeth Hawkins
    2. Hi Shirley, My 4th great grandfather Thomas Jefferson Johnson came to Mo. in the very early 1800s, probably right after the LA Territoy purchase. He was married to Elizabeth Hastens or Hastings, Their daughter Elizabeth was born in Maries Co, Feb. 24, 1824. There were 9 children, including John Myscal, Abraham, and and my Isaac Johnson. Elizabeth married Zion R. Hawkins in 1845 They had seven children five boys, John, Wm. Luther, James, Thomas Carter and another son who died very early. I don't know his name. They had two girls, Mary Elizabeth, she married Isom Robinson, and Sarah Lucinda who married Luther Hutchinson. Elizabeth took her own life Oct. 6, 1920. If you think this may be your Elizabeth I have a little more information. on the family. Regards Mel Wilson

    1. [MOMARIES] Joseph COPELAND
    2. Several folks have asked for more info on my COPELANDs. Sorry for not providing more specifics, but I'm in the middle of law school finals and I'm a bit pooped. I have little info on these COPELANDs of mine. This past summer I have been able to contact a non-internet connected COPELAND cousin who confirmed the connection of my Sarah (aka Lura) COPELAND (wife of Joseph Marion STRAIN) to Joseph and Martha ???. Some info I have seen indicates that it is Martha GREENAWALT, but I have not been able to confirm this. Joseph STRAIN b 1844 in Marion Co., IN died 1897ish Vernon Co., MO Sarah COPELAND STRAIN b ca1842 in Maries Co. d after 1900, Vernon Co. MO The had seven children with only two living to maturity. Louisa m. William N. GRAY in Vernon Co., MO (I forget the date). Louisa died about 1903. The STRAIN family in eastern MO tried to get the kids, William relocated to Iowa. James Joseph Henry STRAIN b 1876 Vernon Co., MO d 1933 Montgomery Co., MO m1. 1897ish Lydia BURNSWORTH Vernon Co. MO div. 1898, m2. 1903 Montgomery Co., MO to Lucy Ann JENKINS of Adrain Co., MO (1868-1923), m3. Susie ??? ca 1928 Joseph and Martha? moved the family to Vernon Co. from Maries/Osage Co., about 1868. The nfo I have shows Sarh "Lura" Copeland STRAIN's eldest sibling Mahala m. Riley EADS born in 1826. So I would guess, if that date is correct, that my Joseph COPELAND was born 1800-1805. I have some more info somewhere, but with school and all I've buried it somewhere. In short, my Joseph COPELAND was born 1800-1805 (guesstimate). Hope this narrows it down for you COPELAND experts.

    1. [MOMARIES] Copelands in MO
    2. I realize that there are lots of Copelands from Maries Co. Missouri. Does anyone researching Copelands know of any good sources of information on the Missouri Copelands? I am trying to find out how Ransom Copeland is connected to other Copelands. Ransom was born 1822 in GA. He married Louisa Sims in Crawford Co., MO in 1843. After her death he married Polly Turnbough. They farmed in Dillard, MO. I would love to find out if Ransom had any siblings in MO. His children include: Solomon, Mary Ann, Mickey, Thomas, Beatress, John Ransom, Amber, Emma, and Coach. Ransom was a Union officer during the Civil War. I would appreciate any suggestions.

    3. Well, that is incredibly thorough. I'd say you've got it pegged exactly. There is still (1987) a group of 4-5 homes up on the hill on the N side of HW JJ, just 0.24 miles SW on HW JJ from the intersection of HW JJ and HW V. I'm guessing Manton may be the correct name, and Menton and Maintain may be corruptions of this. Just a guess though. I appreciate all the work you (and others) did on this.

    3. Do you have any information on her relationship with Lytle Lambeth? Were they marries? I assume that she married a Mr. Hawkins sometime, did she have children with him? Could the two children attributed to Lytle really be those of Mr. Hawkins who might have died and Lytle helped care for them? I know that I have lots of questions. I'd like to just get the "story" correct. Lytle had three wives that I can "prove": Cynthia B Hart, Sarah Copeland, Lucretia Ellis. Just trying to fit Elizabeth Hawkins into the picture.

    3. Melinda: Here is some additional info on James and Susan McDaniel. Connie Davidson (See submission from Maries Co History, Vol II) is a direct descendant of James and Susanna. I corresponded with her several years ago and also met her in 1993. She lived in Edgar Springs, MO at that time. Wanda 1850 Census, Crawford Co, MO 14 Aug 1850 House #75 McDaniel, James, male, age 40, born MO McDaniel, Susan, female, age 28, born MO McDaniel, Mahala, female, age 12, born MO McDaniel, Joseph, male, age 10, born MO McDaniel, James, male, age 7, born MO McDaniel, John, male, age 4, born MO McDaniel, Mary Ann, female, born Mo **Blackwell, Mary, female, age 18, born MO **Blackwell, Zachariah, male, age 16, born MO (Living in house #78 is Martha (Ballard) Blackwell. 2d wife of Zachariah Blackwell Sr.) Susan (Blackwell) McDaniel, Mary and Zachariah Blackwell are children of Zach Sr's lst marriage by Mahala Wallace. "James McDaniel" story printed on page 330 & 331 of Volume II of "A County Family History" published by Maries County Historical Society, Maries Co, MO: James McDaniel, Farmer, born about 1810 in Missouri married Susannah Blackwell, born ca 1822, Virginia. It is believed the McDaniels came from the St Louis area and are Irish. James and Susannah married in Crawford County March 9, 1837. Census records list Mary Blackwell, born 1832, and Zachariah Blackwell, born 1834, as her brother and sister. Apparently they lived with James and Susannah.. Also had son Robert born 1856. Susannah's will lists heirs as Mahaley Jenkins, John McDaniel, Mary Ann McDaniel, Ferdinan McDaniel, Robert McDaniel and Jasper McDaniel who is living in southwest Missouri. Mary Ann's obituary lists her brothers and sisters:; John James, Pete, Columbis, Jasper, William and Mahalia. Mary Ann McDaniel had written a paper that said her father died in 1860, her mother died in time of the war in 1863. In Susannah's estate, it says to appraise slaves and other "personaly" estate. At courthouse, September 9, 1863, a paper was signed by Anthony Jenkins (his mark X) relinquishing his right to be administrator of estate of Susannah McDaniel. Surely he could write his name. At age 12, he is listed in the census as in school. Also, he is wounded and hiding out from Northern troops. Anderson Glen is appointed administrator. John McDaniel married Mary Jude Brown. children:; Samuel, Emily, Cora and James. Mary Ann McDaniel married Elisha Hollandsworth in 1866. Children: Rosa, Martin, Martha Decker, William E., Elisha J., Viola Haddox, Lee Ann Murphey and James. Robert McDaniel married Martha J. Sorrell; Children:; Effie, Laura, George, Merth, Ann and Robert H. Robert Sr. died 1932 and is buried in Vinita, Oklahoma. "Submitted by Connie Davidson".

    2. Hi Mike, << Menton - Maries county - Menton was a PO in northern Boone T. It was discontinued by 1938. >> I've heard of Menton from stories handed down to my dad from my Great-grandfather Henry V. Prater, an old confederate from Warren County, Tennessee. Henry settled up along the northwest corner of the Hwy 52 and Hwy 133 junction up in the NW corner of Maries County a few years after the war. He would talk of going to Menton before the town of Meta was built in 1902 and his mail came in through there. There was a post office over in what King, in his History of Maries County called Manton. King also refers to the post office as "Maintain" in his book. I'm not sure if Menton, Manton, or Maintain are same place but Manton and Maintain were also in northern Boone Township. If Menton is the same as Manton or Maintain are the same place, here's what King says: History of Maries County by King pp. 807-808 Lewis G. Wiles...married Frances Pendleton about the time he reached his majority, and the only known home during their married lives was on the Little Maries above the Boone Settlement at its mouth....Manton post office was first established and for many years maintained at his home. King also writes in his History of Maries County of the Wiles family: Re: King -- History of Maries County: The ancestors of the local Wiles family were James and Betty Wiles, nee McGhee, both of whom were born, grew up, and married in North Carolina. They continued to live there until at least five children were born to them. Betty, Louisa, Lewis, Benjamin, and Thomas. Sometime in the eighteen and twenties, supposedly before the youngest child was eight years old, they started a move to or near Paducah, Kentucky. The mother died on the journey and the father soon after reaching their destination, leaving the children orphans. Betty, who never came to this county, seems to have grown to maturity and married there not long afterwards, her home serving as a central point for the other children. The other daughter, Louis, married Joseph Russell, stepbrother of Thomas Anderson and such biography of them as has been obtained will be found in the Anderson chapter. Benjamin Wiles, reputed to have been the oldest of the three brother, married in Kentucky and lived there a number of years before moving to St. Louis, where both he and his wife died. He left at least two children, George W. and Lewis Edward (Tad) Wiles; both of whom came to this county as children and made it their home the balance of their lives. Both lived near the Big Maries several miles west of Vienna. Tad never married. George W. Wiles first married Louisa, daughter of John Crimson and was the father of two children, Louisa and John. The former married Stephen Crimson, by whom she was the mother of one son Fred, now living in this county. She was also the mother of one daughter, Rose, now wife of Thomas Bredden, by her later marriage to Chris Martin. John Wiles married, first, Martha, daughter of Leonard Schell, and was the father of one daughter, Viola, now Mrs. Fisher. His second marriage, to Nellie, daughter of Charles Sooter, was childless. George W. Wiles was the father of seven children living to maturity by his second marriage, which was to Sarah D. daughter of Lytle Lambeth. Two of them, Mattie Ellen and Bessie Elizabeth, are dead, the latter dying single, Mattie married R.M. White and is survived by her two sons, ray and Casper. The five living children of the last marriage are: Matilda D. wife of William Hollis, Emma, widow of Robert L. Sudheimer, Benjamin, Grover C. and Gideon, all of whom live in the western part of the county. Lewis G. Wiles, who was probably the first of the brothers to come to this county, may have come with the Russells and the Anderson, or he may have come to them, but in either event he came much more than a hundred years ago. He married Frances Pendleton about the time he reached majority, and the only know home during their married lives was on the Little Maries above the Boone Settlement at its mouth. His farm is now divided among several different owners. He was one of the early day school directors and Maintain post office was first established and for many years maintained at his home. Both he and his wife died in this county at advanced ages. Lewis G. Wiles and Frances Pendleton Wiles were enumerated in Boone Township, Maries County, MO in 1860, 1870, and 1880. He died in 1888 and she died in 1897. Lewis G. Wiles patented land in 1856 in this area of Maries County: West 1/2 of the NE Qtr, Section 4; Township 40-N, Range 10-W SE Qtr of the SW Qtr, Section 33; Township 41-N, Range 10-W SW Qtr of the SE Qtr, Section 33; Township 41-N, Range 10-W He patented land in 1859 in this area: West 1/2 of the SW Qtr, Section 33; Township 41-N, Range 10-W North 1/2 of the SE Qtr, Section 32; Township 41-N, Range 10-W These tracts of land lie in Boone Township right along the Little Maries River and along County Road JJ south of Argyle. Take County Road T south out of Argyle about 2 and a half miles and County Road JJ goes off to the right (to the west). That's Section 33 of Township 41-N. The road then dips down into Section 4 of Township 40N and runs along the north side of the Little Maries River through Section 5 then Section 6 of Township 40N. I'm not sure if Menton and "Manton" or "Maintain" are the same place. If they are, those tracts of land were where Lewis G. Wiles home was and where Manton Post Office was at one time. Bob Prater

    3. My husband is a descendant of Lytle Lambeth and his 2nd wife Sarah Copeland. However, I am very interested in Elizabeth Hawkins who had two children with Lytle: Samantha Lambeth (1849 - 1911) and Rachel Lambeth (1843 - 1911). Their 2nd child was born after the first child of Lytle and Sara. Now I'm not looking for scandal (although as genealogists we sometimes find more than we'd care to :-). I'm interested in Elizabeth and how she fit into the family dynamics. I do not find a marriage certificate for Elizabeth and Lytle and am now working on the assumption that they were not married. Later I discovered that Elizabeth married a Reverand Phillip Martin. Who are Elizabeth Hawkin's parents? When was she born? When did she die? What was her exact relationahip with Lytle Lambeth (1806 - 1883)? Any information would be most appreciated.
