HOOVER,PERRINE,MARTIN
Submitted 12/02/04 by Maria Wolf

 

I am looking for my great grandmother's family. Her name was Laura D/N HOOVER and she married Joseph MARTIN.  Her father was Valentine D. HOOVER, whose father was Alexander HOOVER, who married Margaret SMITH.  Valentine was the brother of James Madison HOOVER.  One of James Madison HOOVER's daughters married James PERRINE.  I am also looking for some of the PERRINE family members. Laura and Joseph had two children: William, who was my grandfather, and an unknown daughter, who the family has never hear of, but I did find her birth record on the Missouri Birth Records.  Supposedly, Laura and Joseph died when William was about 3 years old (William was born 2/1884).  Was there some kind of illness at this time in St. Clair Co., MO?  Laura's mother and father seem to have disappeared around this time too.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

BURNS  HODGINS
Submitted 09/07/04 by Kathy
 
I am looking for anything on Thomas E. BURNS and Mary HODGINS BURNS. They were in St. Clair Co. in the 1850 census under the name BARNS. We know they left sometime after that due to their view of slavery. Mary died soon after that and her parents Robert HODGINS were still in the area so we think she was buried in Missouri.I have been looking at the cemetary listings but the last name is the only thing listed. There are BURNS' buried in the Kings Prairie, Freeman/Holsapple, Appleton City, Lowry City, Osceola, Robinson, and Union Cemetaries. If you have anything about this I sure would love to hear from you. Thank you  Kathy
