Vedette newspaper (Dade Co. MO) 1887.I was 77 last Mar.26. Came to Missouri in 1839 and helped build the first house on site of the town of Greenfield (Dade County, Missouri). Saw the stake driven into gopher mound to mark center of Court House. I still have some old friends in your town. Ira left for the 1890 Oklahoma Land Run.

Making conections

The more information you can give about the people you mention, the more chance there is of someone else connecting with your family.

Dates and places of births, deaths and marriages all help to place families.

Professions also help.

'My great-grandmother mother was a Douglas from Montrose' does not give many clues to follow up! But a bit of flesh on the bones makes further research possible. But if we are told who she married, what his profession was and where the children were baptised, then we can get to work.

Maybe it is time to update the information in your profile?
