I am trying to find out if Mary K RIEF who
died Feb 7,1899 and her father Siefert or Sievert RIEF who died Feb 7,1922 in
Butler County KS are buried in cemetery there. From what I can read in our
newspaper there is no indication they were brought here but a Mary K's name,
date of death and age were on a family marker that was in a cemetery in
Pennington County, it no longer can be seen but it was seen. It has been widely
believed that Siefert was also brought here to be buried with his wife and four
children who all died here in the 1890's. I am putting up a cemetery on
findagrave and I want to know if they really were buried here. Can someone help
me with this?

Trying to find out where Rebecca MORGAN 1st
wife of Jacob T. ROBINSON is buried. They were in the census in 1880 in Douglas
Township, Butler County, Kansas. By Aug. 9, 1888 Jacob was in Newton County,
Arkansas marrying Martha Jane BETHANY. Very little is known about Rebecca other
than her family gave Jacob a hard time about their 3 children after her death.
The ROBINSON family says that is why he left Kansas and went to Arkansas where
his family was living. I would like to have some info about her if anyone has
any.

Guy Noyes GIBSON lived at 121 N Central, El
Dorado, Butler County, Kansas. His draft card (hard to read) states he was b
1885, Dec 30. He was married to Nan (Beulah Leonna). It states he was a jeweler
for a L G???? He must have worked out of his home because business address
is his home. The family lore that he boarded a train and was never heard
from again, probably robbed and murdered. Can you tell me the name of the
jeweler and if there is any newspaper articles about Guy GIBSON?
