Mailing address (optional): 3506 W. Marie, Wichita, KS 67217 Query: I am looking for the parentage of James MEACHAM who lived in Topeka, Shawnee Co., KS. at the time of his daughter, my gr-grandmother's birth. Her name was Rachel Rebecca Salome MEACHAM (b. 8 December 1872). One of James' granddaughters said that he was a war veteran, I assume civil war. James had at least three wives that I know of; 1) Alice SUTTER, 2) ? CHESSMAN and 3) Rachel's mother Mary BRATTON. Besides Rachel, James and Mary had 3 other children, Kay and Jay, twins who I understand died young (may be buried in Shawnee Co., KS.) and Gay who lived his later in California and was a bus driver. 1880 census showed that James' family was living on Van Buren St. with a border by the name of George Hammel. 1900 Census shows that James was born in PA. Can anyone help or fill in holes? |
