age 6 years and went to work for farmer named WILLIAMS near Eminence, MO. as an adult he
went by the name of WILLIAMS and worked as a carpenter, when sober. His children were

NAME: Edna
SURNAME: WALLEN
minister, John Wallen, who married a Thornton to a Tallig
in 1874. Do you have any way of knowing more about this John Wallen. I
am searching for my grandfather, John W. Wallen, who was also a
minister. He was born in Hancock Co. TN in 1852. I lose track of him
from 1871 to 1900. By 1900, he is back in VA. However, I don't know
where he migrated to during those lost years, and therefore don't have
the names of all his children. If you have access to the 1880 census
for the Missouri area, could you check this out. His wife was named
Mary (Johnson) from VA.
Thanks in advance

NAME: George Harris
SURNAMES: PURTEET, POPTEET
PURTEET (may be spelled POTEET), Lemuel b SC abt 1815; mrd Mary GIBSON
in 1836 (dau of James GIBSON and Mary FINLEY). Family anecdote says
Lemuel, his wife and children were moving west but stopped in Reynolds
County. Story also says Lemuel, "died in a Northern prison after eating
a poisoned pie." Children include Nancy, Keziah (my great
grandmother-married William T. Sutton), Jane, Mary, Ewel and Dreisey
(Drury or Drucila). Drucila married in Reynolds Co. in 1870s. Have
found record of a Lemuel POTELL listed as a civilian prisoner who died
on 18 Nov 1862 and buried in grave number 10014 in the National Cemetery
at Jefferson Barracks. I believe this is Lemuel PURTEET since I suspect
there were very few "Lemuel' anybody in Reynolds Co during this era. I
and others have information on some Purteets (Poteets), Sutton and
decendants, Gibson, & Finley that we can share.

NAME: Charley and Jan Edmonds
SURNAMES:EDMUNDS / EDMONDS / COPLING
I am tracing my husband's family and I believe that he decends from
William EDMUNDS (or Edmonds) of Amherst/Nelson Co.VA who married
Sarah"Sally"Hughes) We believe that William had a son named CHARLES
LAVENDER EDMUNDS who was born in Lovingston, Nelson Co. VA in 1812. I
understand that William left a will dated 3-1-1826 that named his wife
Sarah and seven children: James, Nancy, Lavender,Willis, Moses,Rebecca
and CHARLES. CHARLES and the others later moved to MO and then to AR
around that is where things get fuzzy. CHARLES (b. Lovinston, Nelson Co.
VA 1812) and his 4th wife JANE (COPLING) died in Pulaski Co. AR 5 days
after Jane gave birth to twins. CHARLES LAVENDER
EDMUNDS and JANE COPLING were married St. Francois Co. MO on 1-22-1854
but I believe that they show up in the 1860 Reynolds Co. Census. My husband's family decends from one of
those twins, MOSES(b. 1-2-1867 - his twin may have been named Henry).
This situation meant that a lot of information and records were lost. I
wondered whether you might know anything about the Edmunds? Charles,
Jane or their son Moses in particular. I believe that they were taken in
by the Edmonds in Missouri. They would have had to come and get the
surviving children. Would there be a record of these children being
orphaned and then adopted? I am hoping that you can help since I am at a
loss. The surname is often misspelled. I've even seen Edmins......
I would appreciate any information that anyone might have.

I am searching for William E. Reynolds or Thomas Reynolds, I read something
about a Sherriff Reynolds in Missouri who had an encounter with LDS Smith.
My ggfather served as sherriff in Erie, KS for 50 years, I am trying to find
out if it is a relation. So, therefore, Reynolds Co. may have been named
for a relative. Do you have a way I could verify this information...
Thanks
