This is what I have on James William Hickman; born Sep 8 1853 Indiana, second son of James Madison Hickman & Elizabeth A Brown. He married Rachel A Meyer on August 14 1877 in Miller Co. James Madison Hickman b Dec 27 1825 in Sullivan Co Tn, son of John Hickman & Sarah Pitts. On Dec 26 1847 he married Elizabeth A Brown in Lincoln Co Ky. She was born June 6 1827 in Lincoln Co Ky daughter of Ulysses Brown & Elizabeth McManus. At the 1900 Census for Glaze, Miller Co Mo; Jas M Hickman 74 b Dec 1825 Tn Va Va; wife Elizabeth A 72 b Jan 1827 Ky Ky Ky. They had been married for 52 years and had 9 kids, 5 still alive. James died on Nov 18 1908 in Glaize and was buried in Gott Cemetery. Elizabeth died on Feb 23 1907 in Miller Co and was buried in Ulman Cemetery. I have a note that her obituary was published on March 14 1907 in Miller Co. Missouri, but have not been able to find it online. She was a member of the Union Baptist Church. Edward Binford Hickman, a younger brother of James William was born Aug 9 1867 in Miller Co Mo and died Sep 14 1920. The informant on his death certificate was his (second?) wife Pearl ?Keaney. She did not know the name of her husband's mother. I have not found a Biddie Spoonmore. Could Sophia have been using a nickname for her grandmother? When did Sophia Hickman become Sophia Miller? I have her first marriage to Isaac Colvin on Dec 26 1904 in Miller Co.

Hickman's death certificate (1853-1943) and was surprised to see that his daughter, Sophia Miller, listed James' mother as "Biddie Spoonmore". I had always thought that James' mother was Elizabeth Brown (and his father James Madison Hickman). Has anyone already solved this mystery? Who is Biddie Spoonmore?

Cemetery records on MoMiller web site show on both James and Elizabeth Hickman are buried at Gott which is near Ulman. As far as I know, there is no "Ulman Cemetery". James' death date is listed there as 1909 rather than 1908. This could be a typo on the web site, however.

I found a marriage date for Martha Alzada Hickman to Millard Evans in Cole County 29 Dec 1915. Have no idea who Millard Evans might be.
