RE: John W Burns
Hi LBV
John is my 1st cousin 3x removed. I am related through his mother, Malinda Wilson Howe Burns and her father, Rev. Joseph Price Howe who established the Springfield Church. I enjoyed attending Sunday morning services there in April.

Martin Coffey
Hey Tina,

According to his grandfather's will, Martin was the son of one of Elijah and Rebecca (Shockley) Coffey's children and was raised by his grandparents. I don't know, and I don't know if anyone knows, which of their children was actually his parent or who his other parent was.
According to her death certificate, Martin's wife's maiden name was Miller. Harriet Elizabeth Miller was the daughter of John Ezekiel and Mary Miller.
The marriage record between Harriet Elizabeth and Martin gives her last name as Harville (phonetically spelled Harvell). My guess is that she married a Harville before her marriage to Martin, but I haven't been able to find any more evidence of that. She was 24 at the time of her marriage to Martin, so there was plenty of time for a prior marriage.
Miley Elizabeth died young, but did have two children that lived, Viola Christine and Esther Lorraine Norvell.

Margaret Jane (Wolfe) Coffey
Tina,

I am even more closely related to John Cleveland's wife, and in as many or more ways, as I am related to him.
I am a direct descendent of two sets of her great grandparents: Henry and Delphia (DeLaMar) Hipsher and George and Margaret L (Rucker) Coffey. I also have connections to her Wolfe family, although I am not a direct descendent.

John Cleveland Coffey
Hi,

I am not closely related to John Cleveland Coffey, however, I am related to him in many different ways.
The most direct is that His great grandparents, Benjamin Coffey and Mary "Polly" Hayes were my 6th great grandparents.
I have multiple lines of Coffey descent and multiple lines of Hayes descent.
I haven't figure out yet who his grandmother, Susan Hayes' parents were, but I am sure that I am related to him through her as well.
I am also related to some of the people that his children married.
I have so much Hayes and Coffey ancestry, and they are so intermarried, that I try to document all of them that I can. It not only helps me keep them straight, but I hope it helps other researches as well.

RE: Grant and John H Barker
Thanks for the info. I have found where Grant died in 1909 but haven't found his place of death. Do you know? And in 1950 John was living in Menifee with a little girl named Sarah Lou Barker and he sent her to the 1st grade at the Frenchburg Presbyterian School. She only attended a short time and then moved away. Do you know this little girl and where she may be now? John had previously lived in Middletown, OH with wife Lulu Langworthy Barker and their children but by 1950 was living alone with this little girl. Can't find who the little girl (born about 1941-43) belonged to. She became by sisters "best pal" and I'd like to get them reconnected.
