I just learned that a Great-Uncle
of mine Joseph Bennet MOSS, was in Larned, Kansas in 1909. He had a
brother killed here in WV. and there was an article about it the in your
newspaper. I have been looking for him in Kansas for a long time. I would

PORTEOUS
Karen Glass
(kglass18@mac.com) 11 June 2006
The headstone inscription for my
Great-Great-Grandmother Elizabeth PORTEOUS says she died in 1886. There is no
other dates. I would like to know more about her death. I have contacted the
KSHS and the Kansas Vital Records - no information. Death records for the state
don't go back that far. I have searched newspapers for Larned and Garfield -
nothing found. The Congregational church she belonged to no longer exists in
Garfield, Pawnee County, Kansas. I have been searching for someone who knows
where the church records were deposited OR if they still exist. I have contacted
churches in Larned and Kinsley along with the main Congregational Church
Archives in Boston, MA. I also contacted the archives at the Santa Fe Trail
Museum where they have a depository of local history. So far, nothing is being
found.
Would anyone on this list be able to help? Are there any undertaker
records available from that time?
CLINE

My wife's Great-Grandfather,
Michael CLINE, lived in Larned -- and we believe he died there, too, in the
range of 1910 - 20, and we're trying to pin down IF he died there, and if so
when. He was born 1854 in Virginia, married Amanda ANDES of Virginia, and moved
west in the late 1880's. Can you help us? Would very much appreciate it!

VAMPLEW...PORTEOUS
Karen Glass
(kglass18@mac.com) 24 March 2006
My Great-Great Uncle John Rouse
VAMPLEW lived in a sod house in Keysville Township around 1878-1882. It
had two rooms, bedroom/living room and kitchen. The four-poster bed held
up the roof in the center of the combo room. I have searched the web and
contacted KSHS, the only Pawnee County soddie image I received was built later
than 1882.
I would be interested if someone had an image of a Pawnee County "soddie"
amongst their family photos they would be willing to share.

OSBOURN...MAXFIELD
Sheryl
Hardcastle (panhandlekid@yahoo.com) 28 February 2006
I am trying to find out if Daniel
OSBOURN & his son, Eli F. OSBOURN, died in Pawnee County. Daniel died 16
Oct 1880 & Eli died 30 Apr 1882. Also need to see if anyone has record of
Daniel's widow, Sarah Jane (GOFF) OSBOURN, marriage to a James Porter MAXFIELD.
It occurred 6 October 1881. I am trying to help a cousin on the OSBOURN
situation. Am going bonkers on the MAXFIELD situation as my gg-grandma, Melissa
(SWANDER) GOFF, married a James Porter MAXFIELD in Kingman Co. Is it the same
fella? That's the question of the day.
