DEWULF, KEANE, LUCID posted by Carolyn Olson on Sunday, April 29, 2001

DeWulf & Keane
I'm looking for burial location for Julia Lucid DeWulf. I found her SS# and place of death in Cedar Rapids, Boone Co., NE. She was born Dec 1885 in Platte Center, Platte Co., NE and her death date is April 1967 or 1968. I'm also looking for any other information for her.
I'm looking for any information regarding the Keane family. Margaret Lucid Keane had lived most of her life in Cedar Rapids, Boone Co., NE with her 4 children. They were John, James, William, and Mary. Towards the end of her life many of her children relocated to Des Moines, Iowa and Co. Bluffs, Iowa. I do not know her husbands name. I believe she had married between May 1888 and 1900. Their first child was born abt 1900-1901. Unable to find marriage records for her. It is also believed that their oldest son John had been involved in WWI, and he had married. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you for your time. Oh! Mary Keane never married and worked for the telephone co for many years. She eventually relocated to New York! Carolyn Olson-Everett,WA.
