Posted on: Posey Queries Board URL: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/genbbs.cgi/FamilyAssoc/Posey?read=135 Surname: Posey, Blanchard, Fleming ------------------------- Searching for information on John Posey b.-1841 in Illinois,(John was a son of Mcajah Cage Posey and Eliza McMakin), d.-1924 in ND. Wife was Louisa Jane Posey 1840-1877,(cousin and daughter of James Posey and Jerusha Farris). Children were Elizabeth A b.1862, James M. b.1863or64,Almira J. b.1864, Ellen b. 1866, Latitia A. b. 1868, Alice B. b. 1871, Clara M. b. 1874 (my grandmother), Eda R. b. 1876. This family lived in Crawford County, Wisconsin. After the death of Louisa Jane, John is to have married Catherin Kate Hopwood in ND. Her maiden name was Hellmund. I would like to know anything about any of the children of John and Louisa. I understand that one of the girls married and lived in Taber, Alberta, Canada about 1909. Clara M. married Francis J. Blanchard in ND and they emigrated to Alberta in 1909.

Gus, Do you know if Cage Posey stayed in Crawford Co., WI until his death? I have lost him in my research after 1860, and haven't been able to locate him in his later life. Also, what county in ND did John die in? I've been trying to "follow" all of the children of William and Elizabeth (Hendley) Posey until their deaths, but lost track of Cage and Lane. Any hints? Do you have all of the information that you need on Micajah (Cage) Posey's parents and grandparents? -Cheryl Posey Hemingway chemingw@conectiv.net > Searching for information on John Posey b.-1841 in Illinois,(John was a > son of Mcajah Cage Posey and Eliza McMakin), d.-1924 in ND.
