We are looking for information on family that was living in the area around 1958.
My great grandmother was, martha E. Masters and she married alexander long,as far as I know no children from that marriage.
she had children from a previous marriage, mildred masters was just one and she married walter conger, my grandfather.
Mildred and walter had 2 children, bob and martha jeannette conger.
 
Martha jeannette conger was my mother, she kept in contact with the conger and masters family until 1965 when she died from burns
she suffered in a house fire in st louis mo. Before she moved to st louis she may have had some children and she was also pregnant with my half sister, born in november 1958. Not sure what happened to the other children or for sure if she had any other, But according to my half sisters birth record there were two children born before her and she was born november 1958 in st louis mo. My sister would also like to know who her father is.
 
Martha jeannette Conger- wrote a letter to a Mrs. Alberta Conger RT#3 Salem,mo in july 1958. I'm including some of the sentences from the letter,
 
Does joanie like to baby sit with the kids?
How is Lyman and all the boys?
When is Cecil and Nancy getting married?
Do you think she is pregnant?
Well you know salem is good for that, this will be the last one for me.
 
She also mentions, asking if she can come down to pick berries and can them,
she also mentions selling christmas cards to make extra money.
 
If anyone has any information or pictures that would be great.

Looking for a 1877 birth, not sure where I can look. The child would have been Rhoda Emma Condray (Condrey) (Condra) born on March 9 1877 to John Condray and Amanda (no known maiden name) in Dent County.
Any suggestions as to where I might look would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Posted:   March 2012

I am looking to find the grave of my great grandmother. Ora Dotson her parents were James Thomas Dotson and Katherine Dyer.  She is suppose to have been buried at Boss but I cannot locate her tombstone.  Ken told me that she died young and was buried by her mother and father.  Her husband William Jamison traveled to the Leadbelt with their children and remarried.  My grandfather was Curtis Jamison.  I cannot find out much about the Jamison or Dotson line other than what I found on this website.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
