In Response To: Re: Civil War Soldier? ()

I'm impressed, ran across Edgar's history with the Navy (USS Fox)and the Bolshevic Revolution. I've got the family line now, let me dig for a few days and see what turns up.

Mary wife of James Henry supposedly died of breast cancer at age 78 and is buried in Mountain Gove, Mo. No proof yet! That would make her year of death 1904 which would imply that James H moving to Ft. Gibson after her death doesen't fit with a 1901 date of death for him so there are loose strings here. At least one comment I've found indicates the "James" moved to Ft. Gibson with brother Louis which makes me wonder if that is not actually James H Jr (b 1861/3)

Clearly James H Sr. and Mary with children are in Hazelwood Twshp. Webster MO in 1880

They are also found in the 1870 Census in Webster Co with James H (Jr) born Illinois age 7 (makes the 1863 date) and Margaret born Illinois age 4. Louis J is listed a being born in Missouri February 1870. There is an entry for a marriage in 1858 in Stewart Co. TN. so we narrow the timeline Tn 1858 then Illinois by 1863 then Webster MO by February 1870
