He could have been a second marriage. He and Molly were married in 1893 in Lake Co. All I really know about Molly at this point is that she was the daughter of Ben or Burrell Brogden/Broglin. She and John had 2 sons named Roy and Benny. Molly was supposedly killed in a knife fight near Reelfoot Lake around early 1900s. She is supposedly buried at Crocketts Chapel , but there is no tombstone there for her . She had red hair. I really hope there is some connection . These people have so hard to track down. Joan

The Connor Drugstore may well have been mentioned in the text, but was not indexed in the back, because I could only index proper names, and there were tons of names!!! I'm sorry it's taken so long to get back to you on this and I apologize! Copies of the book may be obtained by e-mailing peace38351@yahoo.com for more info, and thanks in advance! Emily Davis

My grandmother was Sarah Isabelle and was married to Marion Copeland Lawrence. They lived at Linda, Missouri, which doesnt exist at the present time. I plann on getting death certificates for them also. Any other information will be appreciated. Mick dunlap
Greetings: I am a new subscriber, having just learned that I have a possible family connection to a lady named Ida Holifield, known to have lived in Tiptonsville from about 1895 to 1918. She was descended from the Caroline CO Walden family, according to copies of three of her letters I have just today received. If anyone knows of Ida Holifield or any of her family, I would appreciate such information. I will gladly share my information in order to work out these ancestral lines. Eldred W. Melton

I'm trying to find the birth and death date of William Jeff Neely. He died before the 1920 census in Missouri and his body was supposed to buried in the Hornbeck Cemetery in Lake County. Would anyone have a list of the persons buried in the Hornbeck cemetery? Apparently there are LOTS of Neely's buried there. Thanks for any help Bette (New) Sousa Carmichael, Ca.
Thought I would send this to the lists. It can be a big help to some of us. This is just an excerpt of the Washington Post newspaper article.............. Gay Mathis To view the entire article, go to http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A6197-2002Oct23.html 1880 Census Now Online By D'Vera Cohn The 1880 Census went online today, offering a clickable way to research family genealogy or look up famous Americans such as Frederick Douglass or Alexander Graham Bell, both of whom lived in Washington at the time. The searchable database of 50 million names went on a free Internet site sponsored by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, www.familysearch.org. The church also put up records from the 1881 Canadian Census. "A name may be all you need to find your ancestors in this searchable index," said Richard E. Turley Jr., a church official. Turley said of all the records available to people searching for 19th century ancestors, "none is superior to the 1880 Census." The 1880 Census is a snapshot of a turning point in U.S. history, when the country was recovering from the Civil War and plunging into an industrial era. It was only the second count to record African Americans as individuals with first names and last names, rather than as property. The 1880 Census also occurred at a time of rising immigration, and for the first time asked people to list their parents' birthplaces. It also recorded the relationship of everyone in the household for the first time. The census project is among a series of family history projects sponsored by the church, and made available for free. Access to more recent census data, up to 1930, is available on the Internet from companies offering paid subscriptions. It took 17 years for church volunteers to transcribe handwritten 1880 census records and type them into the database. Researchers and historians at the University of Minnesota then spent hundreds of hours standardizing the names and localities, as well as organizing the information so it could be easily retrieved.
