Hi! Does anyone have the wherewithal to lookup a marriage record from about 1884? I'm looking for the marriage of Drucilla KEITHLY. I'm not sure of the groom's name. She was married sometime around 1884 - give or take a year. In 1880, she was living in Peno, Pike Co., MO with her father, Eli KEITHLY. Thanks very much!

Hello: I have located a name in the 1870 census index, but the images online are too faint to read. Is there someone who would be willing to look up the following: Cleopatra Turpin, 1870 census for Township of Ashley, Pike County, Missouri, page 009. Thank you so much. Donna

Seeking will or Probate for Austin Beasley, who died between 1850 & 1860, a resident of Calumet Twp., Pike Co., Missouri. Thanks, Donna Cuillard

I found a marriage record for Charles Gladney married 23 Nov 1859 to Iraetta Beasly in Pike Co., MO. This Iraetta was married first to either William B. or Josiah Turpin. Their dau, Nettie Turpin, born Feb 1854 in Pike Co., MO. Glad to have any info on these families. Thank you, Donna Cuillard

Seeking info on Nettie Turpin, born 22 Feb 1854 in Pike Co., MO. She is the dau of William B. or Josiah Turpin & Isobel (possibly Janetta) Beasl(e)y. I located Nettie on the 1860 census for Calumet Twp., Pike Co., MO as a child age 6, living with Charles Gladney age 32 born MO and his wife (I cannot read the wife's name). I am not sure if this is her mother, Janetta, married a second time to Charles Gladney? There is a Jane Beasly age 58 born VA with a Martha age 23 & Rosella age 17 living next door to Charles Gladney. Not sure if there is a connection. Thanks, Donna Cuillard

Hi, I am searching for any information on my family of Jones of Pike County, Missouri. William Jones (age 27) listed with wife Christian (age 20) in the 1850 Pike County, Calumet Twsp. William Jones (age 37) listed with his wife Christen (age 34) with children.....Rutha J (age 8), John F (age 6), George W (age 5), Sarah E (age 3), Jas D (age 2) in the 1860 Pike County, Louisiana, Buffalo Twsp. WIlliam Jones (age 49) with wife Lucinda (age 46) with children... Ruthy J (age 18), John F (age 16), George W (age 14), Sarah L (age 12), James D (age 10), and William H (age 8) in the 1870 Pike County, Louisiana, Buffalo Twsp.

William Jones (age 77) with wife Lucinda (age 74) in the 1900 Pike County, Buffalo Twsp, Louisiana William and Lucinda are buried at the Riverview Cemetery. Does anyone know anything about this family. James D Jones was my gg-grandfather. I have been searching for these others and I have had no luck. I did find John F Jones and his family in the 1900 Census in Pike County, Cuivre Twsp. but I have not had any luck with the rest. I do know that James D married Rachel Frisbie and they had one child James WIlliam Jones who married Vera Pritchett Sisson. If anyone knows anything I could sure use some help. Thanks Kathy

The following was just kindly sent to me by a descendent through the Farmer line. I wanted to share this with the list since I had been posting regarding Michael Branstetter who is a son of the Henry Clay Branstetter and Catherine Jane Woodson below. Thanks. Anne Allen WOODSON married Jane "Jennie" TAYLOR. They had Allen WOODSON b 1793 and Stephen WOODSON b 1802. Allen WOODSON b 1793 married Nancy FARMER. They had Jane WOODSON who married John S. BRANSTETTER. Stephen WOODSON b 1802 married Selina POSEY. They had Catherine Jane WOODSON who married Henry Clay BRANSTETTER. So Jane WOODSON and Catherine Jane WOODSON were first cousins through their WOODSON fathers. . But more than that. Nancy FARMER was a daughter of Marlin FARMER and Betsy ECHOLS. Marlin was a son of James FARMER and Jane AIKEN. Selina POSEY was a daughter of Jensie FARMER and Robert POSEY. Jensie was a daughter of James FARMER and Jane AIKEN. So Jane WOODSON and Catherine Jane WOODSON were also related (second cousins right?) through the FARMER line, in addition to the WOODSON line.

For those of you who have kindly helped me with my searching, I have received the following from a Branstetter researcher who is a known authority on Branstetter genealogy: Mr. Paul Branstetter. If anyone wishes to email him, he is at PBrans1@aol.com and frequently posts on the Branstetter genforum. Byrdie Branstetter's parents: Michael E Branstetter b 18 Mar 1850 m 11 Jan 1871, Pike Co recorded d 6 Feb 1919, Hardin IL br Elmswood Mexico MO Mary C "Molly" Branstetter b 3 Jul(I had 5 Jul)1848, MO(don't know where yet, but since her parents were married in Pike, probably Pike) d 21 Apr 1898 br (don't know yet where she's buried) He has Michael's parents as Henry Clay Branstetter and Jane Catherine Woodson m. 26 Nov 1846 Pike Co. He has Mary C's parents as John S Branstetter and Jane Woodson m. 21 Mar 1837 Pike Co. He has further info. on these parents and he traces both Branstetter lines back further. Anne

I just received the following in answer to my posting for a Michael Branstetter in the 1870 Indian Creek Pike Co. Census, a Michael age 52 with wife Edalina. Well, this is not the Michael I am searching. The Michael and wife Mollie Katherine I am looking for were born around 1848-1850. Mollie died in Vandalia Audrain Co. in 1898, and I have Michael dying in c1919. Supposedly, they are the parents of a Byrdie Branstetter Burch who was born 1884 somewhere MO married 1901 John Burch and died 1921 Vandalia buried in the Vandalia Cem. Does this ring a bell with anyone?? Anne

Would anyone be able to lookup the household listed below: BRANSTETTER, MICHAEL State: MO Year: 1870 County: Pike County Record Type: Federal Population Schedule Township: Indian Creek Page: 194 Database: MO 1870 Federal Census Index Thank you very much. Anne

Hi, I don't know how "off topic" this will be, but, I'll risk it... Birthday cards can be sent from the White House to people celebrating their 80th birthday, or more. Anniversary cards are available for couples married 50 years or longer... Requests must be received at least one month in advance... To request these cards, send the name(s) and and address of the honoree(s) and the date of the event to: GREETING OFFICE WHITE HOUSE 1600 PENNSYLVANIA AVE. WASHINGTON, D.C. 20500-0000 This is not a hoax... I did this for my Grandmother, 3 or 4 times... and, a 3rd cousin that was up in years... both lived to be 93 years old... (1998) I miss my Granny very much... Dixie Lea in K.C...
