Georgia McCullough Chism & her sister Edna Hazel McC Lowery have done extensive research on the Bilyeu family; their mother was a Bilyeau, I believe. Georgia's snail mail is 1508 Gleason Dr, Rantoul, IL 61866. Hendrickson's school is gone, however the foundation is still there. Parts of the ground are now under the lake I believe.

The cemetery listings on the Barry page are being contributed by volunteers who make readings of all or portions of cemeteries. Eventually, current readings for all Barry cemeteries will be available. In the meantime, we have the 1980's readings of Joan Kunkel and friends, volumes one through four. By agreement with Ms. Kunkel, by mentioning that a list of her work can be found on the Barry Page under 'items for sale', I can provide the following: TAYLOR, James I. Apr 7, 1867- Dec 16, 1925 (ssw) Julie A Dec 23, 1869- Jun 8, 1953 James A. Oct 21, 1900- Dec 2, 1957 Willie E Nov 12, 1907-Sept 12, 1968 Earl R Nov 28, 1905 Apr 20, 1977 Laura May 1891 - 1910 Hope this is your family. bill WBLanders@aol.com

Pama, Ok, I have Alzheimer's .... I can't remember.. Are you the one who needs an article from the Kansas City Newspaper? I can get that for you....

To all fellow list friends, I want to thank each of you for helping with all of my questions and ramblings ons. I appreciate everything that you have done, sincerely. Warmest Smiles, Pama(Nash)Wilder

Hi I questioned this because I have just recently been researching in Fulton Co., and there is a Viola Cemetery, in the community of Viola........ Bernie

Pama, Both Taney Co. papers are archived at College of the Ozarks. I will be going out there in the next couple of days and will see if the exact issues are available. I will also check on Ingenthron's book while I'm there. Ozarks Mountaineer is checking to see if they have the issue on file.on I dont know about the Kansas City paper. You might try the Kansas City Star webpage and see if it is the same as the K C Times: href>http://www.kansascity.com Hope I can find them for you.

Diane and list, There is a Viola cemetery in Barry county. I belive just across the county line. It is listed on the Barry co page href>http://www.rootsweb.com/~mobarry/cemetery/Viola.htm The listing must have beencompiled from obits only. It lists 3 people: BIRD, Phylis (SHULTICE) Hale, Louisa Jane (Gaddy) Hale, William Thomas The directions say "Viola, On black top highway, near the edge of town" Maybe someone on the Barry Co page can help more.

I wonder if anyone has a list of persons going to California in the (mid?) 1850's that might include Jordan F. TAYLOR. He was the son of John Taylor, Stone County, and is listed on John's probate as being in California in 1858 when John died. I have no idea where to look in California for that information. Some lists I have checked have listed a J. Taylor but that could be just about anyone!! He might have gone with relatives or friends from the Stone County area. Any suggestions? Thanks again, Diane Biggar-Taylor

I have been told by two different researchers that Dona MERRITT was married to my Jordan R. TAYLOR before he was married to Callie Neal in 1896 (Carroll County, AR). Does anyone out there have further information on Dona; where they might have been married, etc. (Is this name in your family??) I understand Jordan and Dona separated. Did they divorce? Where would I find that information? Jordan was born in 1865 in Stone County, MO. So I would guess that he was married to Dona sometime between 1885 and 1895. Thanks for any help you can give. Diane Biggar-Taylor

I have just recently been in touch with a "relative" who tells me that many of my TAYLOR family are buried in the Viola Cemetery. Can anyone tell me if there is a list of names for this cemetery? Also, is there a place to get death certificates or funeral information from a "local" Funeral Home? Thanks, Diane Biggar-Taylor

Hi list, Not wanting to send any researchers on a wild goose chase, here is what I discovered in looking through Mildred Roden's book 'Our Bilyeu Family'. I could find no mention of the Hobbs or Rider families. Sorry Here is what is said concerning Hendrickson; Sarah Charlotte Bilyeu, b 7 Feb 1882, Christian Co Mo. Died 29 Nov, 1967 in Ok. Burial Stroud Ok. Married at Baxter, Stone Co Mo 13 Aug, 1902 JAMES ROBERT 'BOB' HENDRICKSON b 7 Oct 1881 in Stone Co Mo. Died 8 June 1934 in Ok Burial: Stroud, Ok.(Son of Joshua and Sarah Francis(Elliott) Hendrickson) Sarah born 15 June 1848 in Bell Co Ky. died 12 April 1924 in Gypsy, Ok and buried at Stroud Ok Information on 'Bob' And Sarah's children follows in the text. The other mention of Hendrickson is as follows: Maggie May Lander, b 12 April 1907, -------m Lonnie A Hendrickson, B 2 Nov 1909 in Nauvoo Stone co Mo (son of Allen A and Cora (Freeman) Hendrickson). Mildred also prepared a short history of 'The McCullough Community and Williams Township' in the early '80's. I have a few of the 50 or so pages. pg 5 mentions 'There are 2 or 3 graves on the John and Eunice (Rider) Hobbs property just north of Hendrickson (school); and recently, a Mr Brown who owned the land, was buried there. pg 7, Special Census 1890 (CW Veterans) Williams Township House 129 Hobbs, James J.

Thanks for the clues. The Texas part is a huge part of the problem. They didn't start recording birth records until long after she was born. I'll keep digging!

Sorry to bother everyone, but my #@%&* ISP has been bought by another company and email hasn't worked right for several weeks. I've resubscibed several times and it looks like this one may actually work...so, hello again. -- PJ

Linda, I'll put in my 2 cents. Look for a break in the lines. In a message dated 5/1/2000 5:39:12 PM Pacific Daylight Time, lgood@hersheys.com writes: << I am trying to locate the ancestry of my g-gmother Elizabeth ("Lizabeth" "Lizzie") Murphy Hilton.

One of them could be her father. Then again, maybe she was living in another co. and Barry was closer for her to get married in? When did she die? Hopefully it is after MO started death records in 1910. It is $10 for a death cerificate. Hopefully it will list her parents' names. That is your best bet. Cheri Mello
