Since I posted this message earlier, I was reading Jewell County History and
noted that my great-uncle, James Kelsey, built the first hotel in Jewell County
in 1871. It was called the Jewell House. In 1872, he built a second hotel. It
did not give the name of that one.

Topic: Descendants of Isaiah Ferdinand Dunn (of
Formoso)
From: Trace Dunn trace.dunn@worldonline.fr
Date: Sunday, May 05, 2002 03:59 PM
Fellow Researchers,
Isaiah Ferdinand Dunn was born in 1851 and farmed in Formoso, Jewell County,
Kansas. He married Emily "Emma" Spaulding in Scioto County, Ohio in April 1873.
She was born in 1856. Their known children are:
1. Elliot (Ellet, Ellet) Dunn who married Sadie (Dunn)
2. Wilbur(n) Lee Dunn (1879-1953) who married Mary (Marie?) E. Biard
(1882-1968)
3. Ida Bell Dunn (1880-1938/9) who married Joshua T. Clark
4. Charles C. "Charley" Dunn (1883-1956) who married 1st Alta May Copeland
(1886/7-1919)
2nd Jessie Unknown (her first marriage to Wald)
5. Leander Cox Dunn (1884-1931) who married Sophia Korber (1884-1952)
6. Nora May Dunn (1885-1962) who married 1st Andrew Michael Clark (d. before
1933)
2nd Dr. Michael Payne (d. 1933)
7. Minnie Dunn who married Earl Stafford
8. Fred Lee Dunn (1895-1974) who married Zerilda P. Stone (b. 1897)
9. John Dunn (b. 1900/1) who married unknown (Dunn)
10. James E. Dunn (d. before 1910)
11. Lee Dunn (d. before 1910)
This information is incomplete, and I would very much like to be contacted by
any descendants of these people. The "Clark" lines (Andrew Michael Clark and
Joshua T. Clark) are quite extensive and yet I know little about their side.
I myself am descended from John F.B. Dunn, who was born in Virginia in 1861, and
who was a brother to Isaiah F. Dunn.
Both Isaiah and Emma are buried in the Caldwell Cemetery in Formoso. He died in
1917 and Emma died in 1933.
I hope to hear from you.

This is to ISSYROG@AOL.COM. I tried sending to this address and it bounced back.
If anyone knows this person or the name Josine Pederson, Please contact me.
I saw your query from back in April 2000. Not sure if we have corresponded
previously. My gg grandmother was Emma Olena Pederson, born near Burr Oak in
Jewell County, Kansas, 4/28/1882(?). At the age of 15, Emma apparently went to
work at the state asylum for the insane in Topeka, Kansas. There were apparently
about 13 siblings in this family. Names as I have down are : Petter O., Andreas
M., Ingebor E., Ingemann A., Alfred O.D., Ada, Dolthea, Emil, George, Adolph D
(may be the Alfred previously mentioned), Gilbert, Mary, Emma Olena, & Chris. My
thought is that Josine was the daughter of one of Emma's older brothers. Have
you any information that may tie us together? EmmaÕs parents were Ole and Ane
who came over from Norway in about 1870 with several of their children, the rest
were born in Wisconsin and Kansas.
