    1. [RUSSELL] Rebecca Russell-Polk Co MO
    2. Linda Crawford
    3. I am trying to sort out a Rebecca Russell who may be two separate women. In my family line I have a Rebecca Russell that married J.R. Harper in 1848 in Dallas Co MO. She was first married to John B. Mooney in Polk Co MO where he died leaving her with two small children. She married Mr. Mooney with the name of Rebecca Russell. Just a few years before that marriage a Rebecca Grider married a John Russell. She was listed as the daughter of John Grider and Rebecca Sanders. Some say these are the same person, but others say she came from Russellville KY. There were a number of Russell people in the earlier Polk and Dallas County censuses. I have another Russell question to come up in a separate message as I don't think they are connected. The above Rebecca Russell Mooney Harper is buried in our old Fowler-Hurst Cemetery in Dallas Co MO. She died in 1873. J. R. remarried and went to TX. I will be glad to share if I have anything to help anyone. Linda Fowler Crawford.
