My grandfather's name was George Howard BARKER, born in Dayton, Ohio in 1873.  Grandma was Bertha Lee Bryant born at Peace Creek, Kansas in 1877.  It must have just been north of Stafford and northwest of Sylvia.  That is where the cemetery is.  They had 11 children and she was pregnant when she died.  She got choked on a fly.  She had gotten up during the night to get a drink of water.  All of the kids are gone.  I have no idea what her parent's names were other than BRYANT.  My dad would have been about 14 when she died.  At the time there was a 1 year old to take care of.  The kids were Clem Therodor b Nov 10,1899 d 1946, Inas Flow b Oct 3, 1900 d 1917, Cecil Orlo b Jan 29,1902 d around 1942-3 in St. Joseph's Missouri, Glenn Orval b Aug 29, 1903 d Jan 1966, Cleo (Noris in family Bible they say) Eldon on birth cert Sep 22,1904, Letha May b Mar 19, 1906 d 1988, Verda Lee b Mar 6, 1909 d Jul 1966, Dortha Marree b Jan 19 d 1911, Harold Howard b Mar 18, 1912 d June 21,2000, Icie Irene b Oct 7, 1913 d Dec 9, 1958, Earnest Herman b April 20, 1916 d April 1963.  Any information would be helpful.

BERRY, COOPER

Bill Berry billberry2@juno.com Thurs., November 9, 2000
Searching for information about Mary Elizabeth BERRY, born about 1850.  Her husband was Martin L. BERRY and they were married in Indiana in 1872.
Their daughter was Hester Jane BERRY (known as Jenny).  When Martin died in 1880, Mary Elizabeth and Hester Jane (mother and daughter) moved to
Kansas.  Hester Jane was the second wife of George R. COOPER, and they lived in Macksville, Stafford County, Kansas.  George R. and Hester Jane
BERRY COOPER are buried in the cemetery at St. John in Stafford County, Kansas. 
I have information about Hester Jane, but not much about her mother, Mary Elizabeth BERRY.  I'm wondering if she remarried in Kansas, and if she
had other children.

HART, HUFFMAN

Hazel Goodson famhistbug@qwest.net Mon., November 10, 2000
I would like to put a query about Elizabeth Catherine HART.  According to her death certificate she was born 10 March 1849 in Newton County, Missouri and that her father was Jacob HART and he was born in Missouri.  Her mother was born in Missouri, name unknown.  The information was given by her son, George HUFFMAN.  Elizabeth died 17 May 1916 in Clear Creek township, Stafford County, Kansas.  She married Alonzo HUFFMAN on 17 Dec 1871 in Fayetteville, Washington County, Arkansas.  They homesteaded in Stafford County, Kansas.  They were the parents of 8 daughters and 1 son.  I have been unable to find her on the 1850, 1860, or 1870 census records.  I wonder if there might be an obituary in one of the newspapers in the Stafford or Pratt County area.  I would like to find her parents.  The family has said that she was an orphan and Indian.  Would like to prove this.
