I am looking for any information about my
POLLEY ancestors who
resided in Clark County between 1880 and 1900. My Grandfather Charles J.
POLLEY and Grandmother Ora E. HILL were married in Protection, Clark, Kansas
in February 1896. I am looking for his parents namely, Jesse H. and Lucy
POLLEY. We have tracked Jesse to Woodward Oklahoma by 1900 (census records) but
have no idea what happened to Lucy. Did she die prior to their reaching Kansas
or did she die in Clark County? Hopefully someone out there has the answers
for me. Also any information on Ora's parents would be helpful as well. I
think they also lived in the same area - names Marion G. and Mahala J. HILL.
Hoping to hear soon - a Kansas Cousin (on both sides of my family-this one is
my mothers)

I'm trying to find where my grandparents and great grand parents
are buried I know that they are buried in Ashland Kansas and that's all I know
their names are John FANCHAR and Ellen V. FANCHAR, John Miles FANCHAR and Martha
FANCHAR. John FANCHAR died in 1947, Ellen died nov 1917. John Miles died in
1930. Martha died in 1966. This is all we know I've been trying to find out where
they are buried so I can come to visit their graves. Also to find out if there
are any headstones on them. Any info would be very

ADAMS, ELDER, WILKINSON

I'm looking for anything pertaining to Thomas Franklin
ADAMS,
his wife
Laura ELDER who divorced him in 1886, his marriage in the same year I think
to Georgia Ann WILKINSON, and any children who may be with him. He's not in
the 1880 Census, as his children were too old, but he was a farmer probably
and may have arrived as early as 1873. Letters in his service record place
him in/near Ashland during the 1873-1886 period. This looks like the time of the cattle
drives through this area to Dodge City or have I seen too many movies?
