HEVERLIN posted by Millie Conrad on Thursday, August 6, 1998: I would like to find any information on Sam or Mary HEVERLIN buried in IOOF cemetery in Golden City. Thanks.

, GUILFOYLE, RIDDLE posted by Sharron L. Smith on Saturday, August 8, 1998: I am doing research on James and John GUILFOYLE. John GUILFOYLE was born around 1830 in Ireland, emigrated to America and met his future wife, Mary Jane RIDDLE in either Jasper or Barton County, Missouri. They married and then settled in the Bourbon County, Kansas Area. According to the information that I have, Mary Jane RIDDLE was from Missouri. James GUILFOYLE married Eliza _______ who was also from Missouri. Since John and James traveled across the United States together, I believe that Eliza was also from the same area as Mary Jane Riddle. They were also married in Missouri and their first child, William H. born was in Missouri around 1862. They also moved to Bourbon County, Kansas area and remained until their death. Any information someone may have regarding these four individuals would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much.
