Prior to the Civil War, they had slaves whom they had set free long before 1861. Beyond that, I know little about it except that apparently it was common for people to have freed their slaves prior to the Civil War.

My mother's grandparents were Charles Henry Bonar, b. 1829, and Elizabeth A. Bonar, b. 1833. I remember them living in a large square house in southwest Hopkins where my mother grew up. They, along with 16 other people with the name Bonar, are buried in the Hopkins Cemetery, in addition to many others who were Bonars before marrying. There are no people named Boner burried there. The only one of the Bonars I know who had a first name similar to those you are seeking was Charles Delbert Bonar, b. 1880, m. Chattie Crownover, and they had no children who survived to adulthood.

I've "rescued" an old autograph album which originally belonged to Laura A. OXLEY of Clarinda, Iowa. The book is dated 1883 and includes entries from both family and friends. Many appear to be from students of Laura's referring to her as "Teacher". Entries in the album include: Autograph Album belonging to: Miss Laura A. OXLEY of Clarinda, Iowa Also referred to as "Teacher" 1883 Family: * Sadie GANT "Cousin" * Ida OXLEY, Hopkins, MO, 8 Sept * G. N. OXLEY, Hopkins, MO Friends: * Nara BLAND, 1884 * J. L.

Based on limited research and with the assistance of an HAZEN Family researcher I believe that the book likely belonged to Laura Asenath OXLEY b. 6 June 1863 to parents Ethan Irvin OXLEY and Asenath Elnora ALLEN. Laura married Delose Spartacus HAZEN on the 22nd of July 1888 in Irving, Kansas, and Laura died 2 Aug 1949 in Republic Co., Kansas. The OXLEY Family was living in Polk, IA during the 1880 census including, Ethan I. age 43, born in OH, a Farmer whose parents were born in VA and OH respectively, his wife A. E. age 41, born in IL, noting that her Mother was born in CT. The family included 9 children at that time including, L. G. (male) age 19, Laura age 17, Ethan I. age 13, Frankie age 12, Dora age 11, Mirty age 7, Tokay (female) age 5, Lawrence age 3, and Harvey age 1, all born in IA. Laura's husband Delos was b. 23 Nov 1853 in Jefferson, OH. Laura and Delos HAZEN had 4 children, Clifford Spartacus b. 26 Oct 1890, Irvin Bradford b. 3 Nov 1892, Mabel Clair b. 8 Jan 1894, and Sanford Ethan b. 7 Nov 1896. All four children born at Wayne, Kansas. Daughter Mabel married Fred Daniel SISSELL on 20 Aug 1912, though I don't believe they had any children. I'm hoping to be able to return this treasure to the family. If you are a member of this family, or know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley

I've "rescued" an old autograph album which originally belonged to Jennie BABB of Coburg, Iowa. The album contains entries from both friends and family members dating from 1892-1894 including family members for the DAVIS, BABB, and BURRIS families. Information included in the album is as follows: Autograph Album belonging to Jennie BABB of Coburg, Montgomery County, Iowa Compliments of Jennie B. BABB "J.B.B." 1892 Family: * Myrtle DAVIS "Cousin", Coburg, IA, 4 Feb 1892 * Hattie BABB "Cousin", Griswold, IA, 18 May 1893 * Ada BURRIS "Cousin" * Orville BURRIS, 13 Oct 1892 * Goldie BURRIS, 13 Oct 1892 * Almeda A. BURRIS, Red Oak, IA, 13 Oct 1892 Friends: * Millie, Montgomery Co., IA * Anna L. BAILEY, Montgomery Centre, IA, 10 Oct 1892 * Edwin C. BAILEY, Montgomery Centre, IA, 10 Oct 1892 * Flora OLDE, Coburg, IA, 2 Feb 1892 * Belle PHIPPS, 26 Dec 1892 * John JONES, Coburg, IA, 3 Feb 1892 * Jennie RUBEY, Coburg, IA, 15 Jan 1894 "Your Teacher" * Nellie MCDEVITT, Coburg, IA, 4 Feb 1892 * Hilda GORANSON * Roy TOWNE, Coburg, IA, 17 Jan 1894 * Chester, Coburg, IA, 17 Jan 1894 * Nannie BEESON, 3 Feb 1892 * Hattie, 30 Jun 1892 * Ida BEESON, 2 Feb 1892 * W. O. MCDEVITT, Coburg, IA, 15 Jan 1894 * Freda GORANSON, 17 Jan 1894 Based on limited research, I believe that the album belonged to Jennie Belle BABB b. 1878 or 1880 in IA to parents Samuel Martin BABB and Julia Ann SWEARTS. Jennie married Winfield Scott WOODS on the 24th of Nov 1904 in Coburg, IA, and died 17 Oct 1969, buried in Nodaway, Missouri. Cousin "Hattie" signed in the album is probably Harriet Agnes BABB b. 29 Mar 1874 in IA to parents Benjamin Franklin BABB and Caroline Rachel WEILENMAN. Harriet married George Cass CLARK in Red Oak, IA on the 25th of March 1897, and died 9 Apr 1933 at Griswold, IA. Cousin Myrtle DAVIS appears to be the daughter of Robert H. & Mary A. DAVIS who along with 3 children were living in Coburg during the 1880 census. Robert H. age 29, born in OH to a Mother born in PA, his wife Mary A. age 28, born in IA to parents born in IL and NJ respectively. Their children were, Amos E. age 8, Myrtle R. age 4, and Lewis A. age 10 months. All of the children were born in IA. Goldie Ethel BURRIS b. 14 Jan 1882 in Coburg, IA was the daughter of Arthur Miller BURRIS and Samantha Elizabeth ADDISON. Goldie married on the 2nd of June 1909 and died 14 July 1954. The same BURRIS Family including Orville BURRIS also signed in the book were recorded in the 1880 census living in Coburg including, Arthur M. age 37, born in Indiana to parents born in NC and OH respectively, his wife Samantha E. age 33, also born in IN to IN born parents. The family included 4 children, Melina E. age 10, Nora M. age 5, Mattie age 3, and Orville age 1, and a nephew, Fred BURRIS age 10. I'm hoping to locate someone from this family so that the album can be returned to its rightful place with family. If you are a member of this family, or know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley
