Jonsey; I have a lot of information about the Schell folks from McDonald and Barry Co. Let me know if you would like a genealogy report.

I am the president of the Stone County Historical/Genealogical Society. What can we help you with?

Could someone who belongs to the your local county genealogy group email me off the list. I have a couple of questions for you folks! Many thanks. I am with the Newton Co. MO genealogy group.

There is quite a lot of new things this week at Rootsweb. Hope the links below help someone find their ancestors. Happy Hunting Jo AUSTRALIA, NEW SOUTH WALES, Sydney.

This little-known database is available for free until 11/24 at http://www.ancestry.com/search/rectype/inddbs/4996.htm It is a listing of just the officers and sergeant instructors of the National Guard for all of the states and the District of Columbia, Hawaii, Alaska, and Puerto Rico in 1925, but it might be helpful in locating families around the time of the 1890 federal census, which for all practical purposes is not extant. Birth dates of these men range from 1862 through 1904, but about half of these soldiers were born between 1885 and 1895. Who knows, you might get lucky and find that missing link here.

I recieved the wrong information for the Social Security for this Harrison Pearson: Harrison Pearson Mailing address: Jameson, MO. age: 63 born 10-22-1892 place of birth: Jamison, Daviess Co.,Mo. Father: George Pearson Mother Margaret Jane McKinney Farmer Todays date: 12-1-1955 If this is in anyones family line I will be glad to mail it to you. I am a looking for a HARRISON PEARSON son of WILLIAM THOMAS PEARSON and HOPE DUCKWORTH of Springfield, MO. Donna L. Conley

Diane, Just a note to let you know that while in Mo this past week, I check the probate records for the Taylors. I thought I would be able to clarify and sort out the Taylor mess, but I must say...no such luck. Our problem seems to be that either the court, or researchers have gotten the two Zebadee Taylor files confused, so information on both of the Zeb's are in one file. In other words, there is only One Zeb Taylor file which contains information on both families. Since I was traveling with my cousin , I was not able to spend a lot of time creating a time- line with the information in the file to help us sort it out. Hopefully we can keep working thru the Taylors , and perhaps we can eventually get to the bottom of the mess. I did find another Taylor to add to our mess and no way of knowing IF he connects to the other Taylors or not. It seems that no one knows where he came from either! To make matters worse, I am also related to .:{ So...just wanted to let you know that I didn't forget you...!

Eureka! My Herndon grandfather turned up on the 1920 census (Thanks Paul Jackson for inputing this township) in Cass Township. The name is spelled wrong, Hendon, but I am sure it is my ggrandmother and her 11 children. The question becomes, where did they come from? Two doors down is John T. Sellers which must have been ggrandmother Mary's brother and when she became a widow at 38 with 11 children, she moved close to her brother. Does anyone out there in cyberland know anything about these two families. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Lou Ann Vogler saltcreek@att.net

My apologizes to the list. The information on Durham was supposed to go to Tom Stevenson (in answer to a message he sent me). I am afraid I clicked without checking the return address. Sorry - It won't happen again! LOL!! Diane

All I know is that my husband's ggrandmother was named Sarah DURHAM. (I do not have her parent's names. Somewhere I have her date of birth, I think) Sarah married a Monroe HENDRICKSON in TN, had the following children: Mary Hendricks m A Razor. He died and she m Sam Barnes. John L Hendricks m Lidia Razor Jan 14, 1877 Martha Hendricks m Pard? Taylor Tommy Hendricks who died young. Monroe HENDRICKSON died. Unknown date. Sarah then married Jordan F. TAYLOR (13 Jun 1863) and had three sons. Jordan died - 1869-69. Their oldest son, Jordan R. TAYLOR (born March 1865) was my husband's grandfather who married Mary Frances Caldonia (Callie) NEAL in Berryville, AR. I do not know where Jordan F. is buried. In 1878, Sarah Durham-Hendrickson-Taylor later married Jacob Oliver PAGE - (born in Canada the census says). He is buried in the Viola Cemetery in MO and I assume she is also, altho there seems to be no concrete evidence of that. I NEED to go to MO!! I think I also have some DURHAMs in my BIGGAR family from Niagara Falls, Ontario Canada area but can't tell you the names. Anything familiar here?

Diane, Wish I had an email address, but the copy that I got a few months ago only has a snail mail addy: Stone County Historical Society PO Box 305 Marionville, MO 65705 My copy is dated 1989 and I believe was left over from the original printing. Don't know if they still have any left, but I'm sure someone on the list should know. Also I noted you are hunting for Durhams, I have a few on my gedcom which is online at http://www.GenealogySource.com . Please let me know if we connect. (We must!)

I have a copy of each. Vol. 1 is the one you mentioned "wine" colored paperback copyright 1989. Vol. 11 is also wine in color and is a hard back. Both are by the Stone County Historical Society. I purchased Vol. 11 last May at the newspaper office in Galena, however it was their last copy and they referred me to Lois Watkins the society president for more copies. They are now accepting info. for Volume 111. I don't know Ms. Watkins address but have her tele. # if anyone wants it.

I think we have had this discussion before but I need it clarified. The book I have is "wine" colored paperback, with gold lettering. Inside the date is copyright 1989. Is this Book #1? And if so, is there a Book #2 I can purchase? Would love to hear from someone who has this information.
