BYRD, WALLACE, WALLIS posted by Kenneth Byrd on Thursday, July 3, 1997

BYRD, WALLACE /WALLIS - am trying to discover the relationship between the BYRD and WALLACE /WALLIS families living together in the 1860 census for Brunot, Union twsp, SE Iron Co. MO. My gg- uncle, Alfred M. BYRD (18 yrs) and a certain Andrew WALLIS (~34 yrs) are listed as being in the same unit (Co. E) of the militia rolls for Iron County MO, 1865-66; are they nephew and uncle or what, exactly??? Also, would like to know when/where Alfred M. BYRD died and where he is buried; his widow, Amanda BYRD is described in a probate document for Alfred M. BYRD's father, William Carrol BYRD (my gg-grandfather) in Randolph Co. AR and dated ~1875. thanks!!! - Kenneth Byrd, Indianapolis

AMELUNG, DITTMER posted by Marcine Lohman (Amelung) on Monday, August 18, 1997

AMELUNG/ DITTMER I found a listing in the Lds records for a Bernhardine Christine AMELUNG born about 1784 in Darmstadt, Starkenburg, Hessen. It has listed Rel: August A. DITTMER. I know that DITTMER is a common name for Ironton/Pilot Knob as I've seen it quite alot in tracing the AMELUNG's there. I'm wondering if anyone tracing the DITTMER name has run across any AMELUNG connections. E-Mail: marcine.lohman@frucon.com or 509 Kehrs Mill Road, Ballwin, MO 63011-3231

JOHNSTON, MONROE posted by Von Johnston on Monday, September 29, 1997

I am searching for any information you can provide on the family of James MONROE and Margaret JOHNSTON. They apparently moved to your area, Dent County, in the early 1870's. We know they were in Jefferson County, West Virginia, during the 1870 census. All thirteen of their children were born in either Dent, Iron or Reynolds Counties. I am especially interested in finding any information on James MONROE'S mother, Annie, who lived with them, or her husband, David. i know that she died in 1901. I have written to the Bureau of Vital record for information. Thank you.
