Surnames: Meeks, Carter Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/RMB.2ACE/422.4 Message Board Post: I am researching my husband's family, Carter. In going through a box of old pictures I ran into pictures of children labeled Meeks on the back. One picture was labeled with Cleona and Perry Meeks, it looks to be 1890s photo. My father in law felt that there was a connection by marriage, but I have never been able to ascertain this. If this is anyone you have in your Meeks line let me know. I have scanned the picture. Do you have a Carter marriage in there? They were listed in the Mt. Pleasant Township. Thanks, Julia

Have you been able to uncover that connection? Jackson was born in Maryland, Louisa Darnielle born in Kentuckey; However, their children listed in the 1880 census were listed as born in Pennsylvania. I have researched my husband's family and we were fortunate to have some original documents. I have Louisa Darnielle Fordney's Widow's Affadavit applying for pension from Jackson Fordney's Civil War service. Filed 28 October 1926, Scotland Co Missouri. Validates the marriage as having taken place 21 Oct 1852. I have a scanned version if you are interested.

I am wondering about your Martin line. I have a John Martin Green (e added later)b. 1862 in Middle Fabius, Pulltite or Pulltight, Scotland Co Mo. The Greens were from VA and the Watts from KY. Could there be a link here?

Martin, Smith, Brown, Erwin, etc. I believe are all names in my family tree. I have recently moved and do not have my home computer hooked up yet so I don't have access to my family tree software. Once the computer is up and running, I will try to respond back to these messages. In the meantime, please feel free to email me directly at coloamy@aol.com. Martin is the maiden name of my great-grandmother. Smith(s), Erwin(s), and Brown(s) married into the Martin family. A large part of my family (dad's side) is from Kentucky and northeast Missouri (Scotland County, Fabius, Memphis, Greensburg, etc.). I look forward to hearing from anyone! Amy Fisher

I have SMITH siblings, it seems, namely Humphrey Elias SMITH b 1847-1848 MO & Sarah Margaret SMITH b 20 Oct 1856, who married into BOTH my father's AND mother's lines. According to the 1860 U S Census, Fabius Twp, Schuyler Co., MO, the abovementioned pair with their siblings, i.e., Elizabeth SMITH b 1839-1840 TN, John SMITH b 1841-1842 VA?, Isaak SMITH b 1843-1844 MO, Humphrey SMITH b 1847-1848 MO, and Sarah SMITH b 1855-1856 MO, were the children of John C. SMITH b 1799-1800 VA and Marilla b 1809-1810 VA. Marilla was a MARTIN, I believe. John, above, had the middle name of Martin. Elizabeth md George WHITE b 1839-1840 TN who was in the SMITH household at the 1860 U S Census. John Martin SMITH b 27 Nov 1840 md Phoebe A. b 16 Dec 1845 and both are buried in Downing City Cemetery, Downing, Schuyler Co., MO. Humphrey Elias 'Doc' SMITH md Sarah COOK b 08 Sep 1850 an elder sister of my maternal great-great-grandfather John COOK. 'Doc' and Sarah, I believe journeyed to Southeast Kansas, following Sarah's elder brothers. Their graves may be in Coffeyville or Cherryvale, KS. Sarah Margaret SMITH b 20 Oct 1856 md 15 Feb 1872 Scotland Co., MO, one Hardin Ellis 'Ed' BRUNER b 28 Mar 1852 an elder brother of my paternal great-grandfather James Driscoll BRUNER b 2 Dec 1856. 'Ed' and Sarah are also buried in Downing City Cemetery. I do not know anything further about Elizabeth SMITH WHITE, Isaak SMITH, or John Martin SMITH families, or if there were other siblings. I wonder what you might have on this SMITH family, if anything at all. WHITEs number among my collateral lines, too, as well as the MARTIN name. May I hear from you?

There will not be an obit for Uzal Cory in Scotland Co. Our newspapers on microfilm don't go back that far. It's possible there could have been an obit in a regional newspaper or a church paper. He is listed in the 1860 census mortality schedule as age 64, b. OH, d. March. He had a will and heirs were wife Lucinda, children Mary Elizabeth (Mrs. Wm.) Brewer; Ketura (Mrs. John B.) Rathburn; Nancy (Mrs. Leander) Lake; Charlotte (Mrs. E.G.) Rathburn; Jeremiah M. Cory; and Uzal Cory. Uzal Cory is buried about half a mile east of my house in the Rathbun family cemetery. (The name is spelled Rathbun on Keturah's stone). The last time I was there, his stone was propped against a tree, but was legible. His stone says "Uzal Cory, died March 13, 1860, Aged 58 y 2 m 20 d." Hope this is some help.

I am interested in connecting one Artie Esperia EWING b 03 Feb 1875 d/o EWING & Ellen to the EWING line of Scotland County. Artie md 22 Sep 1897 one Bruce Burns COPELAND b 11 Mar 1873 MO. Artie and Bruce died 26 Mar 1960 and 26 Feb 1932, respectively, and are buried side by side in Webster Cemetery, Fabius Twp, Sec 35 T66 R14, Schuyler Co., MO. The COPELAND name is a collateral line to my WEBSTER genealogy. My cousin-in-law Vernon Bounds EWING lives in Memphis. I have not gotten to talk with him about this, Artie's maiden name EWING has only just been learned. Does anyone follow this line? Thanks for reading!

I had noted only that Theresa BARKER married a HOOVER. Also Hila and Theresa's brother John Harvey BARKER married a BRUNER, one Anna Belle/Nancy BRUNER, a younger sister of Albert Lee 'Bert' BRUNER; and their daughter Corda Ethel BARKER would become the mother of Orville Max SCHUPBACH. Max would marry Mother's first cousin Doris Ardell BAKER. I am a double cousin then to their children, being related through both my maternal and paternal lines. I love this stuff! May we share more?
