Thanks for sending this for all to read. I am "trying" to go on documentation only and I am looking for family information on JAMES BRITTAIN father to E.L. Brittain b: 1896 Missouri (per obit). E.L. was the father to my father JACK D. BRITTAIN b: 1919 Missouri. I also just got copies of my grandfathers divorce and it has a list of names that were called into court to testify for him and I find the name of DUKE mention a few times with the addresses where they were living or working at that time. I have posted some BRITTAIN obits to the Jasper county obit site also, for those that might be interested.

I found the following record of divorce on the Randolph County site while looking for a different family line. Is anyone familiar with this Dollie Nagle? My Great grandfather George, between the death of his first wife and his marriage to my great grandmother, "took off with some woman" according to his oldest son, Newton, and left Newt with his grandparents for a couple of years during this time frame. Knowing that there are a number of Nagles in Taney County, this caught my eye. Stacy, George -- m. No Date Dollie Nagle; MDM Thursday 22 Mar 1883 Ingrid Albers
