Heritage Quest can be used on your own computer at home, but there is a few steps you must take before hand. First, contact your public library and ask them if they subscribe to Heritage Quest -- if they do it is easy. Go into the library's website, click on Heritage Quest and enter your library card number. That's all. Not only can you access many research books but you also have access to the CENSUS, which you can print from the original. It is worth the bother getting set up, if your library doesn't subscribe, ask which library's nearby do and then go there and take out a card. ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com

also if you have a library card for your local library, you may be able to access these resources from your local library's website from home. Not all libraries can afford remote accesss so it may not be available at your local library.

Bring up their home page, and at the top of the page, click on the tab that reads "stories and publications". Under keywords, type in "Randolph county, Missouri" and send. That will bring up another page. in the second category under "Family & Local Histories", it's the first item listed. Click on that and it should take you to the book. Check the index pages if you know the section you are interested in, or you can do a search once you are within the book. I regret to say that I cannot do lookups in the book online. I am moving my mother into assisted living tomorrow. We are hoping we will have a few more good months with her before the cancer takes her. Until that time is past, I am not doing active research. I just check in now and then and do a quick answer if I can.

Reva, I could not locate a biography of Moses Kimbrough in the 1884 History of Randolph and Macon Counties. However, I did find mention of Moses Kimbrough on the following pages: p. 96 - Listed as Old Settler of Randolph County p. 117 - Listed on the First Grand Jury of Randolph County p. 161 - Listed as Old Settler of Prairie Township I also find Moses Kimbrough in the Database of Randolph County Deaths as compiled by Larry Sumpter on the Randolph County Rootsweb Genealogy website as follows: Kimbrough, Moses -- Heirs: Rhonda Hylton, Susan Roan, Patsy Maggard of Rand. Co, the children of Jarvous J. Kimbrough, names unknown, Sena Donalds\o TX; signed: Joel Hubbard; p. 11 Jan 1851 The link to Larry's website is as follows: http://www.yggdrasill.net/mgen/sumpter.html Larry did a huge favor for all of us by accumulating this information (you will note too that he has references to obituaries, probate records, and publications such as the 1884 History of Randolph and Macon Counties among various other records he has cited)! Reva, I was curious if you know how Moses Kimbrough is related to James Kimbrough who married Mary Ann Goodman? Mary Ann Goodman, daughter of James Goodman and Mary (Alexander) Goodman, was a niece of my gg grandfather John Alexander (who by the way, was a brother-in-law of Joel Hubbard) and she was also a niece of my gg grandmother Catherine (Goodman) Stark.

Dear Friends, I'm just getting started with genealogy and appreciate all your emails. I'll be doing the Sweeney family. I think I have local info but not where we came from in Kentucky. It was Boone county and I heard the court house and records were lost in a fire in the 1800's. I have joined the Clark County Nevada Genealogical Society where we now live. Several members said they will be glad to help me. I just bought a Family Tree Maker, version 16, but haven't loaded it yet. My Mother was a French war bride, married my father in Paris in 1918, so I'll be looking into her genealogy too. Auta-be-interesting!

This book has been scanned and is available through Ancestry.com's subscription is you are a member. I checked the biography for William Cooley and his family and have transcribed it below. There was nothing on page 35 in relation to the Cooley family. The small section on the Civil war did not relate much of anything. pg. 631 WILLIAM COOLEY (Farmer, Section 12). Mr. C. is the son of John and Elizabeth Cooley, both natives of the Blue Grass State. They came to Missouri at an early day and settled in Howard county, where William C. was born August 19, 1818. He grew to manhood on his father's farm, and received a good education at the neighboring schools. He was engaged for some time in salt making. In 1840, Mr. Cooley took to wife Miss Elizabeth, daughter of John and Elizabeth Fields, originally from Kentucky, and soon after his marriage removed to Randolph county. He began life with only a pair of ponies as his stock in trade, but by steady attention to his business and habits of unflagging industry he has acquired a comfortable property, and is among the substantial men of the township. He cultivates 140 acres of land, making a specialty of wheat. Mr. Cooley saw some active service during the war, being out with Price's raid in 1864, and was made a prisoner at Fort Smith. He was afterwards released at St. Louis. Mr. and Mrs. Cooley have eight children: Joseph, Sarah, Rebecca Jane, Catherine, Elvira, Evaline, Adelia Ann and Edla. Mr. C. is a prominent member of the Masonic order.

Does anyone have a copy of the HISTORY OF RANDOLPH AND MACON COUNTIES, published 1884 by St. Louis; National Historical Company? I have a Cooley history that quotes page 35 from this book concerning William Cooley and his family. If someone has this book, would you please look to see if anyplace in the article, does it mention his daughter, Sarah Elizabeth Cooley, born 1845 as being a Cpt. in the Civil War under General Price, Confederate Army? Sarah was my GG Grandmother and I am seeking information to confirm if she did or did not serve in the Civil War. Her father, William Cooley, born 1818 and her brother, Joseph were both Prisoners of War in Union prisons. Another brother, John Samuel Cooley died in Union prison somewhere. The information I have states she served in 1863, which is included in a Cooley history that I have. Barbara Wisdom
