His son's death certificate (Samuel Francis Roe, 1941) states that Franklin Roe was his father and Franklin was from Georgia. My father (Bernard C.

I am researching my great-great-grandfather, John MAYFIELD and his family. He appears in the 1860 Gallatin Co. census with his wife Mary. John was born in Rutherford Co., TN in 1828. John served in the 131 IL Inf during the Civil War. He married Louise Midgett PARKER in Gallatin Co. in 1864. John died there in 1876 and is buried in Gallatin. John's son Logan MAYFIELD was a town marshall in Ridgway at one time. There are some older MAYFIELD's listed in Gallatin and may be related. Some other surnames that are related to these MAYFIELD's are HUDGINGS, FORTNER, and TROTTER. I would appreciate any information. Thanks in advance.

Along the way he must have lived in Pennsylvania for awhile; his wife Julia A. was born there in 1843. Peter died in 1914; Julia died in 1916; both are buried in Palestine #2 Cem. in Omaha, IL. Fred Meyer lived in Ridgway; he was married to Rebecca Mills. Fred had several sons: Leslie Ray, Dale, Curtis, Emil and Ivan, and one daughter: Agnes. Fred died in an accident at the flour mill he owned in Ridgway in 1925. Leslie Ray and Ivan both died young. Emil later moved to Vienna; Dale stayed in Gallatin Co. and married Mary Catherine Anderson. They lived in Omaha. I've posted here before and had no luck, but perhaps someone out there knows something about Fred and his parents. Did Fred have any brothers or sisters? Did Julia A. Larue have family in Gallatin Co., or did both Peter and Julia leave their families ba!

would do a look-up for me. I can access the census on-line at Ancestry.com but hoped a page#
would help instead of searching all the pages!
I would like to know if a THOMAS, JOHN OR MARGARET NALLY/NALLEY is listed in the census. Thomas died June 2, 1880. I have his death certificate.
The census was taken on June 11, 1880. John and Margaret administered his estate. I believe John is his son but not sure who Margaret is. Trying to tie up some loose ends.
