I am looking for Giddeons/Gideions in Texas and Shannon Counties. I am looking for the children of Archibald R. Gideion and Nancy Caroline Blankenship. Their parents were married on march 1,1868 in Texas County. Archibald's last name was spelled 'Gideion'. Their children were:William L. born abt. 1870 and Samuel C. born abt. 1872. In 1880, the boys were found living with their grandparents, William C. Blankenship and Pamelia, in Texas County, Lynch Township. Their last name was spelled 'Giddeons'. Their parents have disappear at this point. Later, while searching the Shannon County Marriage books, I found a Samuel C. 'Gidden' marrying Callie Jones on Jan 11, 1892. Is there anyone out there that could help me out? This is my dead end. I am not sure if this is my Samuel, but its my only lead at this point. I would like to know what happened to their parents, and what happened to them in general. It is my hope, in the end I will find someone who has a lead on William and Pamelia. I believe William (their grandfather) to be the brother of my G-G-G grandfather, Calvin Blankenship. Thank you.

I am not sure how to do the exchange of GED files. I would like to learn, but, my son in law will be coming to visiit and I'll see how and what to do...then, we can. Ok? That will be over the next long weekend. I sure hope your not right about Grubb. We have ALL our records going back many years connected to Delawder. I think there is a first person connection there somewhere...a kid remembers G'ma Delawder or something. But, I can't swear to that. So, no. I can't confirm it either with proof. Never thought to question it either... Do you somewhere in this extensive record file have a 'King' connection? I'm sure my father "King" was connected to my G'mothers line somewhere. Sorry to hear you already knew about Joseph's history. The letter I 'answered' you were asking for info...but, I didn't notice the date it might have been years old too. I haven't been in here for a long time. Seems, no one is interested or has any info on my line. Via, Joseph - John Lee - Iva - Florence - and me. going back is even more sketchy than that. I have almost nothing before John Lee and Florence Pugh. although I DO have florences maiden name was Ingersoll and her mothers was Sarah Moore. But, again...I have the names but no firm proof. Kitty PS oh, the most interesting thing and one of several that is a genealogists nightmare is that my grandmothers mom. Florence Pugh loved her own sister so much, she named her daughter identically. so, there were two females with identical names a generation apart but only vaguely related. Cora Izella (Bashor) and Cora Izella (Ingersoll).

Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/kNB.2ACI/768.2.1 Message Board Post: Kitty - thanks so much for writing. I have quite a bit of info on the Bashor's and would be willing to send you a gedcom file. I have documented 877 individuals. I was aware of the info regarding the Civil War - desertion, etc. and the fact that he shot himself. I have a copy of a letter written by his granddaughter, Annie Rita, where she describes how he came to live with them. He was living in their home when he shot himself - she was 10. I would love a copy of the gravestone photo - I wonder why the state has no record. I do question that he was married to Margaret Delawder. I know that everyone states he was, but no one can offer proof. Joseph's youngest son, Samuel Peter, was my grandfather whom I remember well. He has two sons still living, Samuel Amos and John Alison. Both of these sons say that their grandmother's name was not Delawder, but Margaret Grubb. I have found evidence that there was both a Margaret Delawder and a Margaret Grubb born in the same year in Hardy Co., WV. Samuel Peter's death certificate lists his parents as Joseph Bashor and Margaret Grubb. I hope to solve this mystery some day. Anyway - let's exchange information!!! Verna

Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/kNB.2ACI/768.1 Message Board Post: Hi Verna, Well, I think I can help you out probably more than you'd like to hear!!! I too am related to Joseph...he was my mother's gggrandfather. Notes here say that joseph deserted from the confederate army and either headed north to fight, or went home and refused to fight. His sympathies were for the north. Proceeding note may be too harsh, further reading-this was common in the civil war-it was not considered desertion-men would fight then go home for awhile... ADDITIONAL TO SUBJECT. Notes sent from Aunt Bettie. Another story. Again, it confirms that he deserted...BUT it goes on to say that he went home where his family hid him in the attic until the war was over. Aunt Bettie has pictures of him in his confederate uniform. Also,ones of him as an older man with a beard, ones of Margaret Delawder and of his Gravestone in Arroll,Missouri Cenemtery. Notation in old papers: He was drafted into the Confederates, deserted and joined the Union from which he became a Civil War Veteran. According to notes above...this is now probably unlikely. Last notation from Bettie's notes: "Joseph Bashor shot himself to death, old and ill. He deserted after serving the 1 year term for which he volunteered. Birth:West Virginia not formed until 1863-Joseph born in 1828. (found another note saying he was born 1816?) Also says he spoke fluent German. Marriage:U.S.Census,Tennessee,Washington Co,,Jonesboro;1870 (1Aug);Nat'l Archives; pg 15,Sheet 232; LDS-FHC Film #0,553,067;wife Margaret w/8 children ages 18-4. U.S.Census,Tennessee,WashingtonCo,Jonesboro;1850,1860,1880. Death:Living with son,Amos,at time of death. Joseph deeded his land to Council Grove,Morris Co.,KS in 1889. Military:Civil War,Confederacy,Sgt."G"Co.,29th infantry (Capt.Coulter). "Men From Washington In The Civil War" pg 235;also pg.30.. I think inside all this, in between the lines the truth is somewhere. But you may have some of your questions answered. I think he DID shoot himself. My mother mentioned several times that her mother said he was not quite right when he came back from the fighting. My grandmother was Iva Lorraine, his oldest daughter. However, Iva's mother was Florence PUGH and and the marriage information here says he had 8 kids with "Margaret". Florence and Joseph only had 5 children, Delbert who died at 2, Iva Lorraine, Cora Izella and Harley Harrison. Very possible they were a second marriage after the war years. If he died in 1917, that was 2 years after my mother was born. She was the last of 5 kids. Oh, also according to family records...he was b: 11 Sept 1828 in Lost River, Hardy Co., VA. and d: 25 Mar 1917 in Summerville, Texas Co., Mo. Bur: Arroll, Texas Co., MO. Good Luck, Kitty PS I would be really interested in further information on Iva's side. (The Bashor's) I dont have a lot except from Iva forward.

The family story is that Edmund left his wife and children and went out west, then returned to Texas Co. some twenty years later. he is said to be buried in the county cemetery. Is there a county cemetery? Is there some one who could do a look up for him. He sure is my brick wall Thank You Betty
