Searching for great grandparents. I need information regarding the parents and siblings of Leona Faye STROER ( Feb. 25, 1906-Sept. 1979) and her husband Raymond A. VAN FOSSEN (Feb. 18, 1900-Jul. 1981). Leona was from El Dorado, Cedar County, Mo. Leona and Raymond had 13 children. The eldest son, Thomas died as a young child. They raised their family in a train box car in Council Grove, Ks. Raymond worked for the Union Pacific Rail Road until sometime in the 1950's. The deceased children are Thomas, Everett, who moved to Oregon, Virginia (m. name Stover) who lived with her husband in Bixby, Ok, Melvin, who raised his children primarily in Missouri, and Robert Dean, also a long time KC, Mo. resident who died visiting us in Pensacola, Fl. Leona's Mother lived beyond the age of 94. She died sometime after the summer of 1972, or 73. She lived in Missouri, probably a life long resident. (I'm guessing.) She most likely lived in El Dorado Springs, but she was a nursing home resident in Kansas City. Raymond had a brother named Charles in Americus, Lyon Co, Kansas. He has, or had, brothers and other relatives in Texas, Illinois, Ohio, and perhaps, Iowa, and numerous other states. There may be a link to Luther C. Van Fossen, last known address was Baxter Springs, Ks. He was a Spanish American War Vet. Another possible link is a Union Soldier named John Van Fossen whose name appeared in Kansas in the late 1800's. Any help finding direct links my grandparents would be appreciated.

Looking for Isaac Rains. He may be the son of George Rains whose decedants settled in Missouri (~1840's). Isaac settled in Warren County Indiana around 1827 and started a sawmill. He was later a County Agent who helped lay out part of Williamsport, IN in 1829. Elected Associate Judge in 1831 and Justice of the Peace in 1832. He platted and settled the small town of Rainsville, Indiana in 1833. 1830 Indiana Census shows he was in Warren County, (with ~7 children) but we cannot find him before or much after that date. Records show he left Warren County, IN in 1834, however an Isaac Rains was in the 1840 census with 5 children (either him or a son??) We cannot find any record of Isaac or family after that point except that his will was recorded at Bartholomew County Courthouse, Columbus, IN in 1836. We think he might have gone Missouri, but are unsure. (He may have originated in Ohio, Kentucky, or Tennessee.) It is recorded that Isaac's second wife, Sarah and children went to Missouri around 1840 (Isaac may have had 12+ children, including twin sons Josiah and Jeremiah born in 1830.) Other information: 1832 or so: James, Jesse, Lawrence, Nathan and Stephan Rains were also in Rainsville, IN - unsure of their relation to Isaac. (Lawrence is also linked with George and may be Isaac's brother or uncle. George and John Rains went to Ohio and it was known that George had a son named Isaac. George's decendants settled in Missouri and may have been the children of Isaac.) Any information, leads, or other links will be appreciated.

WEBB, JACOB and relations. Seeking parents and ancestors of NANCY M. WEBB (b. 1863 , Texas). In 1880 Texas census, at age of 17 (married with one child), Nancy said that both of her parents were from Missouri. Old county geneaological resource indicates that "the Webb family" was from Cole Co., Missouri. A JACOB WEBB ("probably born 12-25-1798 in Sullivan Co., TN" and in Cole Co., Missouri "before 1830") is reported to have come from Cole County to Montague Co., TX, with his second wife, ELIZABETH WRAY (first wife, d 1837-8, was ELEANOR ___), daughter from his first marriage (NARCISSA) and her husband, JOHN R.

Am seeing information about my great-grandparents. My great-grandfather was JOSEPH FERGUSON (born 1816/Ohio - died 1872/Indiana), who married my great-grandmother, NANCY SWAIN, (1836/Missouri - 1892/Indiana). They were probably married in Missouri where their first child was born in 1860 -- JAMES FERGUSON (who died in California in 1926). Their second child was born in Indiana -- my grandfather, CHARLES SWAIN FERGUSON (1862 - 1928). Other children were Joseph Ferguson (1865/Indiana - ?/Texas); Elizabeth Ferguson Delaney McCown Harrington (1867/Indiana - ?/Washington); Loucinda Ferguson Miles (1869/Indiana - 1898/Indiana); Samuel Ferguson ((1866/Indiana - 1920/Illinois); and John Ferguson (1868/Indiana - 1901/Indiana). THEY SHOULD APPEAR IN THE 1860 MISSOURI CENSUS BUT SINCE I DO NOT KNOW WHAT COUNTY, I DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO THIS INFORMATION. I do not know who Joseph Ferguson or Nancy Swain's parents were. Any information would be very appreciated.
