KEARNEY, CARNEY, KARNEY, HOLLOWAY, DUNHAM
I am researching two families who moved from Indiana
in the 1870s to Labette County, and who were Methodists.
In particular, I am trying to locate the burial places
of:
Charlotte Kearney (née Holloway), who died on 11 September 1877,
Fulmouth who died 1878. Sometimes Kearney is spelled Carney or Karney. The full details I have are as follows:
Sometime between 1870 and 1880 Jacob Mackey Dunham, his wife Louisa and some of their children moved from Tipton County to rural Mount Pleasant, in Labette County, Kansas [Census of 1880]. David and Phoebe Dunham moved to nearby Oswego, just 20 miles away within Labette County, and with them, by the time of the Census of 1880, were Fulmouth and Charlotte’s children – Mary Ann aged 11 in 1880, Fulmouth Jr aged 14, and Francis aged 7, and Fulmouth Jr was working as a labourer. It seems in the circumstances quite likely that Fulmouth and Charlotte moved from Indiana to Kansas with their three youngest children sometime before Fulmouth’s death in September 1877.
I would be extremely grateful if you could help me. I have tried to research on the internet but there do not seem to be complete surveys of the cemeteries of Labette County.
BARNES
Hi my name is Molly Carson and my 2nd Great Grandfather was Milbourne C. Barnes. On a trip to Oswego, KS I did find that he owned property still called Barnes Addition in Oswego, Labette Co., Kansas. I am still looking for information about Milbourne and would appreciate adding my name and e-mail address on your list.
Thank you for your help.
POWERS
I have a document that indicates that my ancestor Mildred N Powers was suing her nephew David Bruce Powers in Labette in 1890 to recover $3,436.
According to my research, David Whitehead Powers (the uncle) set up his nephews in a banking operation in Saline, Kansas when the father died and David Bruce absconded funds from the bank. When David W. Powers died, his daughter (Mildred) was instructed to ‘get the money” back from David Bruce. Is there any way to prove this vignette in our family history?
Is there anyone who might find the Obit in the newspaper for Frank SHARP,b.1887 d.1945 buried in the Mound Valley Cemetery in Labette County, Kansas? Have been looking for a Frank SHARP since 1979. He, disappeared around 1931 after the death of his Mother in Dewar, Oklahoma. He, is the brother of my Grandmother Arbie (SHARP) STOUT and she never found Frank or Enoch before her death.
JOHNSON
I am looking for the daughter of Walter Johnson I believe that her first name was Margie. Walter was from Chetopa Ks. served in WWII and fought in the battle of the bulge. He was one of five brothers. My guess is Margie would be about 55. I believe that she was born in Labette county. If you have any ideas, please advise. Thank you in advance for any help

How can I find out if Isaac Johnson died in the Labette State Hospital for epileptics between 1920-1930, and where he might be buried? He was listed on the 1910 and 1920 Federal Census as a patient there, and is not listed in 1930.
BETTS
CALDWELL, WALDSCHLAGER
I am an amateur looking for I person who was my husbands grandfather. His name was William Bertram Caldwell and I found a 1900 census with info listed on him in Labette, Ka.I could not get a look at the census without paying a big fee. If you could lead me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated. The listing said his wife’s name was Emma (which we know was Emma Belle Waldschlager) I don’t have their marriage date but William was born in Ft. Scott, Kansas 1873. Their first child was born in 1898. His name was Harold Glen Caldwell. He disappeared after this family was born & he may have ended up in West Virginia with another family. I am also investigating William B. Caldwell in Wheeling, West Virginia. His children do not know what the B. in his name stood for.

HOLMAN
Looking for information on Otis B Hollman family. Born in Ohio married Nancy Bloomer 1871. Had son Bloomer Hollman or Holman. Living in Hackburry twp in 1880 and 1900.
WOLLINGFORD, MORRIS, GETZENDER
I have been looking for information regarding my great grandmother- Minnie M. (Smith) Morse- I have a marriage certificate from a judge V. L. Wollingford-Justice of Labette Co. Kansas near Valeda dated Aug. 12th 1888- I know Jason and Minnie had 3 children - Edgar Alonzo born 1889, Ernest Abner born 1891, and Ralph born 1892 (he died Jan 23, 1897 by falling in a lye pot (old family story)- Found his name Ralph Morris listed under Skinner Hamlin funeral home records in Labette history -info. given by W.H. Smith and birth date and death matches headstone found in Roberts cemetery for Ralph Morse-also, under this listing gives under comments the name Getzender (which may actually be or
could be Getzenander or several other spellings) I don't know why his name is listed under funeral home listing. On
Ralph's headstone it says grandson of Jery Smith (not son of Jason A. and Minnie M. Morse). We think Minnie's parents were Jery (maybe Jerimiah) and Laura Smith. If you know any information, I will be glad to reimburse you for your time etc. I thank you in advance. Mary (Morse) Bracker (402) 510-5161 email: maryold6@ms
STORM
I am attempting to get photos of the grave markers of Daniel Stainbrook (1828-1885) and his wife, Perniah Catherine "Paulina" (1836-1915) who are buried in Mound Valley Cemetery. Is there anyone there I can contact to do this for me? I live in Ohio.
Years ago I adopted some orphaned family photos that I found in an antique shop in Kansas. They are related to the following families: Yardley, Bannon, Jaggard, Hollas/Hollar. I also adopted family letters between Mrs. Mabel Yardley of Kansas City, KS, from her mother and father in Chetopa, KS and someone named Alice and Doris of Chetopa, KS.
COOK
Looking for possible death of "Jacob M. Cook", he is listed in the 1920 census as a widower living with his son James and his wife in Labette Township. His wife Sarah A. may have also died in Labette County sometime before 1920. Would like to hear if anybody has information about these two. They are my great grandparents on my mothers side. I need to know about possible gravesites.
Hi, My ancestor, Milton H. Vandyke was there in 1870 and
died before the 1880 census. I am wondering if he is buried
there?
He was in 1837 in NY.
Thank you,

READ, VAWTER, HEATH
My name is Devon Read, I live in DuPont Indiana, which is very close to Jennings county Indiana the main little town in the county is North Vernon, I have been talking to Shelia Kell she is the Indiana Gen Web county coordinator. I have been talking to her for almost a year and here recently she moved to the area from Indy. I have found a lot of my Dads fathers side. They contracted to build the Jennings County Courthouse! Pretty neat actually. I somehow found the KSUSGENWEB web site on my cell phone's internet. The internet on my cell is how I have done genealogy for almost 6 months (gotta love technology) but I found one of my relatives on your site, my Dads mothers married name was Heath, and there is a guy on your website whose name is Bowen C Heath (or B.C.) he was born in Jennings county and was the son of BC and Sarah Neal Heath.
His son Bowen C Heath JR married Addie Vawter and moved to Howard township Labette County Kansas. His father the SR B. C. Heath is I think a cousin or somehow related to my grandmas husband. I had a copy of a map that had them all on it I guess. It was, I don't know what to call it, who owned land and how many acres all the Heaths in Jennings county all lived right next to each other, and actually after I got to snooping around and got a wavy newer map and looking at the sections that what they used to own was bought by the state and turned into Muscatuck State School, technically a State Hospital for the mentally challenged.
Now I never have received answers to when and why they moved and what year but that's not to important to me it would be neat to know yes but not a necessity.
But my real question is where did you get the
information on the younger B. C. Heath and can you
point me in the right direction to finding out more
on the Heath family? My Grandmother died in Feb, and
I never had a chance to ask her anything about her
side of the family if you can help me any at all
please get back to me with a link to some website.
Anything would be much appreciated, sorry my
punctuation and everything's messed up. Cell Phone
