Wilma, I remember the name. As I remember, they lived on the north side of town. Is that correct? My mother sometimes can remember ones that I don't. I will ask her tomorrow. She now lives here in Springfield. Toni

Hey Fred & Toni! Did you know the Dummit's in Aurora? L.C. & Dolly were my husband's grandparents.

This is what I have on the Long family: Abner Long b. 1804 in NC; married Mary Unknown, and had 10 children. One of them was William Long, b. 1833 in Illinois, married Caroline Unknown and had 6 children. He later married Elizabeth [Carpenter] McReynolds (b. 1849). They had 4 children. One son was George W. Long (b. 1885 MO), married Lula V. Williams (b. 1888MO). Their children were: Velta Long m. Arthur Steele; Verda Long married Orel Millard Steele; Lura Long m. unk. Glossip; Artie Long m. unk Tindle; William Darrel Long b. 1915 MO; Delpha Long b. 1916 m. Unknown Spears; Eunice Long b. 1918 MO; Dale Long b. 1921. Joseph Long b. 1810 in KY (Not to be confused with Joseph Calvin Long). Married Elizabeth Smith. They had 10 children including sisters Mary Catherine Long, (b. 1852 in MO), Sara Elizabeth Long (b.1854 MO), Permelia Cordelia Long (b.1869 MO). Also, Lavinia Jane, married Elijah Rhodes; and James (or Joseph) who married Elizabeth Rhodes. Mary Catherine married George Washington Short and had 10 children including John William Short II, Mary Melcena Short who married Corbley Wright and Ernest Short who married Edith Hembree. Sara Elizabeth Long married John William Short (b. 1850 Johnson Co. MO).

However, their son was John William Short, III, my husband. Permelia Cordelia married Jackson Grant Short and were the parents of Dewey Short as well as others. Many second cousins, twice removed! I've collected this info over many years and from many sources. If I can help anyone, send an email. Marj Short

Marg, Thanks so much for helping to end my confusion. I think I might have it straight now. I'll stick my nose back into the census and see if I can follow these folks through now. :} Robin Don't forget to Vote!! http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~biddle/settlers.htm

Hi Toni, Yes I do recall some of that. I guess that your farm was cut in two when they changed the path of the new highway. Rt 60 I think it is. I never lived in Aurora after 1954, but my family did, and I still have one brother and a sister there. I went back a couple of years ago to our 50th High School Reunion.
