LEWIS
peter.thomas@mcmail.com Peter Thomas Tue, 29 Oct 1996 21:33:27 +0000Any information at all sought on JOHN LEWIS of Weir City KS or his place of burial. This is thought to have been HOSEY HILL Cemetery near Weir City around January 1917. His obituary was published in the "COLUMBUS MODERN LIGHT" ON 18 January 1917. John arrived in Kansas from Morriston in South Wales around 1885, his wife Hannah and their eldest son, also John, followed him about 1 year later. I suspect Hannah may also have been buried at Hosey Hill Cemetery, but have no idea of when she died. Any info at all on her would also be very much appreciated.
Many thanks

My grandparents, John Albert RISHELL and Emma Elverna MOYER
who lived in Carthage, MO were married 1 January 1901.
They were not married in Jasper Co., MO -- and some family tradition says
they were married in Kansas.
Could you please check Cherokee County marriage listings for that time
period?

The surnames I am looking for in Cherokee County are Owens, Cowan, &
Decker. Owens arrived in CK cty in approximately 1872 from Wales. The
Cowans arrived around 1853 from Ohio & Indiana (father Wm Cowan was a
State Representative in 1875). Sinthy M. and John Decker arrived around
the turn of the century (approx. 1900). The last known year in the
county for Owens (Clarence Oliver and Lucy Ellen) was 1934 or 1935. I
am uncertain about the Cowan family. Some may still live in the area.
The father, John Decker, died in 1935. My name is Cindy Hostetler, 7281

I suspect that Oliver
and Sarah A. Owens may be the parents of my great-grandfather (Evan D.
Owens), and emigrants from Wales. They are buried in the Columbus City
Cemetery, as is John W. Owens (possibly a brother of Evan Owens). An
obituary for any of them would be very much appreciated. I believe Evan
was born in Merthyr Tydfil, Wales in 1852. He immigrated to the U.S. in
approximately 1871 or 1872. His only surviving son, my grandfather
(Clarence Oliver Owens) was born 31 July, 1887 in Cherokee County. Any
additional leads would be very much appreciated. My e-mail address is

I am looking for the
birth record of Clarence Oliver Owens in Columbus, Kansas
in 1887. I am trying to locate his father's
(Evan D. Owens') birthplace and exact date of
birth in Wales. I have not located the burial location of
William Cowan and Sarah (Sharron) Cowan. They were the parents
of Mary Jane (Cowan) Owens, wife of C.O.Owens.
Were the Cowans Quakers? If so, where are they buried. Please
advise as to the John & Sinthy M. Decker family which probably
arrived in Baxter Springs around 1900. Thanks for assistance!
