I am interested in more information and confirming data for the Family of James Bryant Greenlee. Any details would be appreciated
He came in about 1870 to Atchison Co. KS from Ironton OH with Wife Mary Ellen (b. Jul 19 1850 OH d. Jun 8 1886).
They had children:
Nancy b. Nov. 27 1870 m. John Laird
Amos b. Dec 20 1872 m. Helen Molstad d. 1973 MT
Addie b. Nov 12 1874 m. Laird?
Cynthia b. Oct 29 1876 m John O'Niell
Lucy b. Dec 29 1878
Bertha b. Nov 28 1880 d. apr 28 1888
James b. sept 4 1882
Edith b. jun 30 1884 d. Feb 8 1887
Mary b. jun 6 1886 d. nov 1886

I have come across information he may have married again in abt 1890 to a Julia Swendson or Stillings and had two further children Grace and George. I have not found him in the 1895 census (Nancy Laird does show with a James Greenlee in the Family, Amos appears by himself, and a Julia "Grnule" appears with children grace and George Graves a Walter Stilling and a T Swendson) Other information suggests that he died 1918 in Denver-- But I have not confirmed it is him or that he was married and additional 3 times between 1900 and 1918.

I would like further information for him or the children.

Amos was my great-grandfather, and is rumored to be a corn husking "champion."
Thank you for any efforts
