Hi, John Wesley Stoneman was one of 4 children born to William H. Stoneman and Jane Hoskin Stoneman. He was born April 7, 1857 in Delton, Sauk County, Wisconsin. He married Eva Elizabeth Loomis on September 8, 1893. He died April 25, 1945 at his home on Peone Prairie. I have much of the family history since my husband and I purchased a historical building on Pleasant Prairie (Close to where the Stonemans lived). There is a road not to far from here named Stoneman. If you would like additional information let me know. I am interested in the photo. Sue Mauro, Pleasant Prairie.

I have a picture taken in about 1917-18(?) that is identified thus by my great grandmother, who is long since dead: My cousin Ernie Newman May Woodrum who later became Ernie's wife Mary Woodrum (this was my gr grandmother's aunt, Mary S. Richardson Newman Woodrum, who was Ernest Newman's mother. After the death of her first husband, Richard Newman, she married John Woodrum. This would make her May's step-mother.) Harriet Richardson (this is Ernie's grandmother) The family was from Coles County, Illinois, around Loxa, Mattoon, Charleston. The Marriage record for Mary Richardson Newman to John Woodrum is from Effingham County, Illinois in 1892. By about 1910, much of the Richardson family had moved to Great Falls, Montana. This picture was taken after that move, but I don't know where it was taken-- I don't know for certain if these particular Newmans and Woodrums went to Montana. I found something online about John Woodrum that said he died in Charleston in 1915. I haven't been able to find further traces of these folks. Does this match up with anything you kow about your Lizzie May? I'd be interested in anything you know about Ernie and May.

New to list: I have a Harvey Iams who was b. Feb. 17, 1896 in North Dakota and d. June 1964 in Spokane. He is with his parents in the 1920 census livin at 130 West Cora, Spokane, Washington. His father was F. E. Iams b. about 1867 in Iowa; his mother is Lilly b. abt. 1878 in Iowa. In addition to F. E., Lilly and Harvey, Abrelia born about 1899 in North Dakota and Trotwood born about 1901 in North Dakota. With just the initial of the father, I am having great difficulty in placing this family with their ancestors. Request: Could someone look up the obituary for Harvey Iams who died in June 1964 in Spokane? This surname is sometimes spelled Imes, Iiams or Ijams. However the Social Security Death records lists Harvey's surname as Iams. Before I ordered a death certificate for Harvey, the obituary might give me the information I am seeking. Thanks. Roberta Iiames

What KIND of newspapers? Standard newsprint I would say, would be better paper but someone keeps writing on it. The major local daily is the Spokesman-Review. The better paper to read though would be the Fairchild Times. Alas, the TIMES is a military installation paper and seldom covers local events, hence it's popularity.

Truax and his wife Mary Ann along with their children came to the town in 1883 from Hastings, Dakota County Minnesota. They joined Daniel's brother Geroge W.C. and Richard Truax who had settled on homesteads near Farmington in 1870. Daniel was a partner in a general store called the George D. Brown Mercantile Co. and established the first post office in Tekoa. His wife, Mary Ann Anderson of Edinburgh, Scotland, he married sometime after 1892. She had come to the area originally to visit her brothers Alex, Tom and Bill Anderson. I got this information from a book called, "The Tekoa Story" published in 1962. I know Tekoa has a little museum and they have a copy of this book there. Hope this might help. Kris
