ARMSTRONG
John Armstrong (jarmstr2@elp.rr.com) 10 March, 2003
I am looking information on my Uncle who passed away in Parsons KS on Jan
31, 1921. It is not known if he lived there for any length of time. His
name is Leo Armstrong (first name may have been Francis) b. April 1897
in Chillicothe Mo, d. Jan 31, 1921 in Parson KS. Buried in Chillicothe MO. I
believe there was a TB hospital in Parsons where he may been receiving
treatment. Also there may have been some relatives there that he was staying
with. Their last name would have been Conway or McCarthy.

SHAW
Greg Conner (geealan@charter.net) 02 March, 2003
I am looking for information on the Shaw Family. Napoleon Shaw b. 1850,
listed in the 1880 US Census of Labette Co KS. Napoleon's parents,
Cornelius b. 1820 and Rachel b. 1825, I have no proof that they came
to KS. Napoleon's sister, Rebecca J Shaw Green Wadsack b. 1856, her
daughter Minnie P. Green b. 1878, and her child Richard Wadsack b.1884 in
KS. Napoleon's brother, Warren Shaw b. 1859, who married Mary E.
Flager b.1862. The Stover/ Flager family was from Labette Co, KS.
Other Siblings of Napoleon's : Emily b. 1840 married James Litchfield,
Clarissa b. 1853, Henry b. 1855 married Sarah Geaugh, Harrietb. 1859, Eliza
b. 1861 married Martin Maggart, Alice b. 1867, Catherine b. 1870. The
Shaw family migration was 1820-60 Coshocton Co OH; 1861-1865 Clinton Co IN;
1870 Delaware Co OH; 1880 Noble Co IN. Rebecca, Henry and Warren ended up in
Clayton Co IA. Eliza passed away in 1898 (presumably in Noble Co IN).
Cornelius and Rachel disappear after 1880 in Noble Co IN as does Alice and
Catherine. Clarissa and Harriet must have married before 1880 and I can not
find them. Any clues would be greatly appreciated.
