The word "Nodaway" might be the problem. I find John and Margaret Kelly on the Nodaway COUNTY census records of 1870 and 1880, and he is there (pre marriage) in 1860 as well. Too many places named Nodaway, including county, township and river.

The book of Savannah Cemetery inscriptions is Volume 7, listed under "Andrew County Cemetery Inscriptions, Volumes 1 through 7" at the Andrew County Historical Society and Museum website. It was published in the 1970s (as I recall; don't quote me), but contains most tombstones before then. It does not include a transcription of the oldest section of the cemetery, however. I don't believe a transcription of "Section 1" exists in published form. You can see a picture of part of it at: http://freepages.his

THANKS for reminding us of New Ark! I'd totally forgotten about that early name. Susannah White was definitely living in the Fillmore/ Jackson Twp. area, so I'll bet New Ark is the ticket!

This lady was my great great grandmother, and died 4 Apr 1904.The obituary must have been printed within a few days of her death.
DEATH OF A PIONEER
SMITH --- At 3 o'clock p.m. Sunday, April 5th, there were interred in the Fairview cemetery, five miles north of Savannah, the mortal remains of one who for the last twenty years has held the distinction of being the oldest resident of Andrew County.
In 1838 there emigrated from Indiana to the then far west, four young, married men, whose wives were
Susannah White is listed (in the Andrew Co. Hist. Soc.'s transcription) as being buried in Fillmore Cemetery, Jackson Twp., Andrew Co., MO. She died 6 Jul 1855.
I'm baffled about "Newmark," however. Any chance that it's the words "her mark" after her "signature" (like an X)? Or maybe it was the name of her farm?
Hope this helps.

In her 1854 will, my great great great great grandmother, Suzanna White, signed her will as living in Newmark, Andrew Co., MO. Her witnesses (Z.F. Gilmore among them) also signed as living in Newmark, Andrew Co., MO. Could anyone help me locate that place? What cemetery would she likely be buried in?

Everyone should check out the books listed at the Andrew County Historical Society and Museum's site:

(Page down until you see them.)
There are some real gems among them.

John Bennett,
THANKS for sharing the obituary with the List. I, for one, found a wealth of clues about the interwoven families (resulting from the Copple sisters) of Andrew and Nodaway Counties. I found tracks on most of these families in census records, except for "Noah Garren and wife." Do you know the name of the Copple sister who married Garren? Did they stay in the county? Are they buried in Andrew or Nodaway Counties, or did they move on to somewhere else?
Thanks again,
Monica
