I have worked some on Maries County: My Great Grand Uncle Henry Matthew Behm lived in Maries county with his wife Bertha and brother John Behm (Behm, Bëhm, Böhm). Their son Francis married Elizabeth Coffey, daughter of Hiram Kinzey Coffey. >From what I have been able to piece together, Hiram was the sone of Campbell Coffey and Caroline Eads, d. of Benjamin Eads. Hiram also had a sister named Mary who married W. N. Copeland. >From what I can see the Eads and Copeland families open up a large part of Maries County! Is anyone actively working on these connections? I have info on the Behm's back to Bohemia and their early arrival in St. Louis. As a second item to solve an arguement with my wife is Maries pronounced Marys or Maries? Bob Berg Visit my web site at: http://members.tripod.com/rhberg1940
