Looking for my gg grandfathers grave. Ira James Rice born 1808, Greene Co. NY.
He came to either Wilson or Montgomery Co. KS, about 1882 by way of IA.
He had a daughter, Frances Marion Rice, married to a Joseph Rice, Ira's nephew,
yes cousins. The best we know is Ira died Feb. 10, 1894. Frances and Joe, I
believe lived there until death in the 19 teens or twenties. I believe they had
at least one daughter, as my uncle told me he used to write to his cousin and
she told him she could shoot antelope from the front porch.
Thanks for any info!

Hi!
My name is Jamie Barnett and I live in Los Angeles. I am doing research on a
family name Cronan. Specifically, Emmett Cronan. He died in Jan. 1979 in Wilson
County. He had ties with the communities of Buffville, Hilford, and Neodesha. I
don't know who any of his survivors may have been, and that's my problem, I
would truly like to find them as I am related to them. If anyone who reads this
may have known him or his family members I would greatly appreciate hearing from
you. Thank you so much.
