I recently set out to find out about the people who are buried in the Bible Grove Church of Christ Cemetery and fill in information in our plat book and now I am hooked. Joseph Jack Saulsbury is buried in the Bible Grove Christian Church Cemetery. I just happened to find that out because since Mary Susan button Salisbury Purvis is buried in the Bible Grove Church of Christ Cemetery and I was searching for information about her it lead me to Joseph. I don't know what all information you are seeking, but there is some information about the Salisbury and Purvis family's in a book that I have. The Purvis and Stice family's are in my family tree also. I might have some information of interest about the Stices also. I live in Memphis. Yes, I mean Missouri.

I'm surprised. I thought Mary might be an older sister as Joseph was 21 and John was 18. I don't think Mary was was in her 30's (which I think she'd have to be to have been their mother), but I'll have to get out the census and check as I could be wrong. I know there is a website for the Morris family online and they show Salisbury/Saulsberry relatives, but they don't have any detail. I tried to find out about Mary and Daniel's marriage, and asked Joanne (with the genealogy society) about it, but there wasn't a record of it. I know that is an area to which a lot of people moved from other areas of the country so Mary and Daniel could have been married in another state. I really need to go look at her age on the census--if she is the mother of Joseph and John, that would put me a good track to find out their father's name. Thank you so much for replying. I've been trying to find the names of Joseph's and John's parents for over 20 years.

LEACH Source not identified, but probably in Van Buren or Washington Counties Iowa, around October 24, 1907 H.C.Leach of this city received a telegram Friday announcing the death of his cousin, Capt. Charles B. Leach, who died at his home in Memphis, MO, Thursday of paralysis. He was formerly a resident of Van Buren county, where his remains were taken the following Friday for burial. Mr. Leach was a member of the 3rd Iowa Cavalry and was promoted to the position of captain soon after his enlistment. He weighted 250 pounds and was never sick in bed a day in his life until he was stricken with paralysis. He was a cheerful whole-souled good fellow and well though of by everybody. DEATH OF CHARLES B. LEACH Source probably a Memphis, MO newspaper, around October 24, 1907 Charles B. Leach, died of paralysis at his home in this city, Thursday, October 24, 1907, at 5 p.m., aged 70 years and 3 months. Deceased was stricken with paralysis many months ago and ever since that time he was a helpless invalid. During all his illness he had good medical attention and the constant care of loving friends, but they could not bring him back to health and strength. When death came it surely was a release. He was of stalwart frame and looked like the very embodiment of health. Such a one frequently becomes the victim of paralysis or apoplexy. He was a good citizen and will be missed and mourned by a large cirlce of friends as well as by his immediate family. Deceased was born July 25, 1837, in the state of Virginia. His parents moved to Iowa, when he was a mere child, settling in Van Buren County. During the Civil War he enlisted in the 3rd Iowa Cavalry. He was first made orderly sargeant, later 2nd lietenant and still later 1st liutenant of Co. G. In 1869 he came to Memphis and followed the milling business for several years. In January, 1875 he was married to Miss Alice Hamilton, who together---(unreadable) and one daughter surviving (unreadable) children preceding him to the promised land. He virtually raised his brothers and to them he always seemed more like a father than a brother. Funeral services were held the next day at the family home. Dr. W.R.
