I posted a message on Lyon County back on 5/13/1998 and have found out much since that time. Does anyone know anything about a Lizzie R. Dunn who married a J.L. Bogle on May 24,1894? This could possibly be the same person as Elizabeth Rachel Dunn who was born in Merthyr Tydfil,Glamorganshire,Wales. William George Dunn, his mother Mary and father John along with Elizabeth and John Harris and Harriet Harris immigrated from Wales in 1884.
I am also trying to find out any information about the parents and brothers and sisters of an Margeurite Isabella Suhl born in Emporia on July 7,1879. Her parents and the oldest child in the family immigrated from Prussia in 1871. She married George (William George)Dunn in Emporia February 22,1898.
What port do most of those who immigrated from Wales take from the UK and then what port would they land at? They immigrated in 1884, and the Suhls immigrated from Prussia in 1871.
Here is my email address if anyone has any additional information that might help me find out more for my husband. The last of William George Dunn's children, my father-in-law, died on January 6, just several weeks past his 80th birthday:
