These families lived near Wilmot, Rock and neighboring towns. I have a great deal of info on the following families, but will be posting particular queries on each.

HENRY GREEN ADAMS born 1856, Monroe Co. IN,died June 20, 1937 Cowley Co, KS

FREDRICK THOMAS ORRILL,born July 8,1849, Pike Co. ILL, died June 4, 1926, Arcadia, CA.

WILLIAM TEBBETT ORRILL & ELIZA MILLER ORRILL, born 1834 in Warwichshire, England. (I have probate letters from Cowley Co. KS for his wife, but have been unable to ascertain his death date, where he died and is buried. Family history says he committed suicide, but have a letter from a grandson that says he was a "Horse thief and was hung". I would like to confirm one way or the other. Any help or information would be appreciated.

THOMAS & ELENA TICE,They homesteaded in Cowley Co. right after the Civil War.

SAMUEL MELROY BASTIN. Right now I am trying to locate a photograph of SAMUEL MELROY BASTIN and/or his parents and
siblings. Parents were HENRY & ELENDER/ELEANOR BASTIN of Monroe Co. IN. SAMUEL MELROY BASTIN was born May 23,1850 in Monroe Co. IN. His obit appeared in the Winfield Daily Courier & Free Press on 05/10/1927. He took a claim 5 miles west of Atlanta when he came to KS at age 21 and lived there until about 1924 when he moved to Winfield. He was married to Elizaeth Victoria (Vic) McCormick in 1871.

Would appreciate help locating family who might have pictures of the Bastins, and any info on William Tebbett Orrill.

I have a lot of information and history of Cowley Co. from these families.
