Under the Lutes family info it just has: "Joseph Lutes (ii), m'd Jan. 5, 1876, Alice M. Estes; went west to Oregon." Later it states: November 29, 1889- Mrs. Alice Lutes, wife of J.P. Lutes, died near Ridgely. She was the daughter of W.B. Estes and was born in Pike County, MO, Feb. 4, 1858; married Jan. 5, 1876, Joseph Lutes; 3 children.
