After Laura Evans passed away, he married Sarah Eaton and they had nine more children. My father, James Eaton Ramsey, was the 11th of 13 children (4 with Laura Evan and 9 with Sarah Eaton) and his H.M. was 47 when he was born. Many/most of the Ramsey clan married and had children late in life, and this was true also of my father. By the time I was born there were only four children still living -- May, James, Pete and Paul (the latter were twins). In all there were three sets of twins from HM and either Laura or Sara, though I have yet to find all of the documentation for proof. There are very few grandchildren of H.M. Ramsey left, as I have only one living sibling and there are four additional cousins from my father's youngest brother, Pete. Needless to say, I would be VERY interested in getting in touch with Bernard Bade to gather information on the Ramsey family bible. If any of the H.M.'s children were alive, I believe that ! the oldest son (William) would be 123; my father would be 101 and his twin brothers would be 99. Though I am just beginning my formal search on Ancestry.com, I am sure that I have Ramsey family information that probably isn't available anywhere else. Though H.M. Ramsey indicates here that he was a Cashier, he later became the president of the Joplin State Bank. He died August 15, 1923 and the family then relocated to Houston, TX. I am not at the point of organizing the Ramsey family information into a tree, so currently I have it saved for future organization. Thus, if anyone needs information on my grandfather/grandmother, my father, his siblings and their children, please contact me. I would also be interested in the Ramsey cemetary, as that was never brought up by my father, nor my aunts or uncles and I am unaware of its location (in MO).
