I am looking for information on who Lewis Young SPANGLER married.† He was born in 1885 in Missouri and died in 1918 in Henry County, Missouri.†I have researched the both the 1920 and 1930 census, and I believe it to be either Wilina or Wilma STEELE.† In the 1920 census she is widowed living in Deer Creek, Henry County, Missouri, her name is Wilma SPANGLER.† She has two children Young SPANGLER (my grandfather) b. 11/21/1911 d. 11/24/1987 and his sister, Alice F. b. 6/10/1916.† Also her brother Jack STEELE is living with them, he is single age 38.† They live close by Thomas HOUSTON, who would be Lewis Y. SPANGLER's uncle.† Alice A. HOUSTON married James M. SPANGLER. In the 1930 census she is also the head and her name is Wilina Spangler.† Both Young and Alice SPANGLER are still living with her in Deer Creek, Henry County, Missouri.† The next name on the census page is again Thomas HOUSTON and his wife. From†what†I can figure they were married about 1910, hopefully in Henry†County, Missouri. With my grandfather being named†"Young" and his sister being named "Alice", I find it to coincidental that Lewis Young SPANGLER isn't there father.† Unfortunately, I have no proof and am hoping that you could some how validate this information. I live in†California and have not been able to get back to Missouri to check this out and validate my theory.

Looking for information on Minerva D. SCROGGINS of Henry Co, MO. I know she was born in Kentucky in 1809 or 1810. the 1845 Henry County Assessor's Book shows her as the owner of 3 cattle (worth $25) and 80 acres of land, possible in Springfield township. She was married to Christopher T. WOODALL on June 27, 1849, by (I believe) William A. Gray. Her husband had 4 children from a previous marriage, who were living with the couple as of the 1850 census of Springfield Twp. Henry Co, MO. She had two children of her own: Harriet Susan (or Susan Harriet), born 1850, and Christopher T. WOODALL, born 10 Sept. 1855. By Jan. 17, 1860, both she and her husband were dead; their minor children were left under the guardianship of L. P. SCROGGINS (Levin?). A Mr. Avery DALTON assumed guardianship of both children on 7 Aug 1865. Specifically, I am looking for information on her place of birth, family (parents, siblings, if she had any), any information concerning her death (date, manner, final resting place, etc.
