Surnames: BENEDICT TEVIS DAILEY GARRISON HAGUE TIPTON WAKEFIELD Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/ZkB.2ACI/1961 Message Board Post: I am searching for my maternal grandmother's family, the Benedicts. Frederick Starr Benedict was born in Fairfield Co. CT and migrated to Meade Co. KY then on to Marion Co. Missouri. Several of his children remained in Marion Co. but three sons moved southward and ended up in Dallas Co. Texas. My great grandfather was George Washington Benedict b. September 2, 1870 married to Martha Elizabeth Middleton. They had 9 children, one of whom was my grandmother, Jessie Alma Benedict Tevis. I have reason to believe, but no concrete evidence, that George W.'s father was Charles Augustine Benedict, son of Frederick Starr. I know for sure that my great grandfather was born in Marion Co. Missouri. I know that he is buried in Smith Cemetery (used to be known as Union Bower) in the Dallas area. He is buried there with two of his children that died very young, John H. and Sadie Benedict. Beside him is the grave of Henry S. Benedict, born June 2, 1844 d. 1910. This birthdate coin! cides with that of Henry Starr Benedict, son of Frederick. A city directory for Dallas around 1893 lists Charles A. and George W. living very near each other in Dallas. An 1880 census for Marion Co. lists the home of Chas. and Mary M. Benedict along with son, George W. but lists his age as 8 years old when according to his birthdate, he should have been 10. (?) Other children of George W. and Martha E. Benedict are Myrtle Mildred, Daisy Bell, Nancy Ann, Nora, Richard Albert, Frederick Allen, Sadie Katherine, and John Henry. If anyone can help to fill in some holes in this story or has information on this family, it would be greatly appreciated.

Through hard work I was able to locate information of the descendants of Lee A. WOLF, Sr. and his wife, Annie Cleveland (nee KELLY) WOLF. Now, I would like to try and locate living relatives of this family. I believe that Lee WOLF, Jr. may have died prematurely. He isn't listed in his mother's obit in 1964. Only her older son, James Monroe WOLF, Sr. In the obit it also lists three grandchildren, one of which is James Monroe WOLF, Jr. This kind soul who helped me was able to track down the names of James Monroe WOLF, Sr.'s wife and two children. If at all possible, I am trying to locate the where abouts of Dianne Cleve WOLF b. Nov 1946 in Dallas County and her brother James Monroe WOLF, Jr. b. Dec 1948 in Dallas County. They would have been the children of James Monroe WOLF, Sr. and Thelma Elenore (nee Swenson) WOLF. James, Jr. may have been or is married to Patricia S. BROWN or Margaret L. DUNAVANT.
