Bio and Links
Bio Photo I have been researching the families of my wife and mine for about thirty years. It is great to learn about family and their migrations.
If anyone finds mistakes on my entries or would like to add information, please contact me. I have been going to cemeteries in my area and have been entering photos and info so many of my entries aren't family. It is always great to meet new family and friends.

Genealogy Research
My family
Barton/Lambert/Goforth/Schooley/White/Miller/ Dunn/Massie/Eggers research is in IL, IA, IN, KY, ENG, MA, DE.

My wife's family
Gibson/McCandless/Turner/Dunn/Ramsey/Brammer/McCully/Wilson genealogy research is in MO, TN, PA, IN.

My wife and I have four children and nine grandchildren which makes our life very enjoyable and now we are blessed with six great grandchildren. Besides searching for our family, I enjoy wood carving.
The Good Lord has blessed me in many ways!

Remember, "No one is truly gone, until they are forgotten".

-------------------------------------------
With the memorials I have set up, if you find any mistakes, please let me know so I can get them corrected. I'm not perfect, but I strive for perfection in all that I try to do on Find A Grave.

--------------------------------------------
Please use the Edit tab,(upper right hand corner of the memorial) then the "Suggest A Correction"(SAC)option. Do this on every memorial that you want transferred or a correction on and please include your ID number

Transfer requests should be for direct relatives within four generations, this would be your siblings, parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents. Keep in mind that the original contributor may also be related to the memorial and may not want to make the transfer.

I am always happy to make corrections and add links when asked.

Thank you for your cooperation

RE: Philpott Family
Leon,
Thank you ever so much for the use of your pictures! I didn't think I would ever find them as I wasn't sure where they would have been buried at. Lydia was born in Trenton, Grundy Co. MO, she met and married William James Philpott and they must have moved from Galt, MO after the death of their second stillborn child. I remember my mother telling us that the Philpott family came to visit, so it must have been Lydia's family because that was my mothers grandfather that they visited in Seattle. Needless to say they didn't stay in Seattle long and went back to KS. Must have been a very long trip for them back then as well.
Again many thanks!
Melody

Sharron,
I can't figure out who this person is so could you send me a ID Number?

Figured it was me, since some people spell my name that way. Sent you the ID number. I really don't need anything. Check your old messages.

Don't remember asking you to do anything. Are you sure I was the one making the request?
