The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1880's with Harry likely in his teens or 20's at the time it was taken. Based on limited research I was able to locate the family in census records as follows: 1870 census of Pioneer, ID: Joshua V. HIMES, age 37, a Ditch Owner, born MA Margaret HIMES, age 24, born IL Walter HIMES, age 6, born OR Norman V. HIMES, age 5, born ID Terr Harry L. HIMES, age 3, born ID Terr 1880 census of Richland, NE: Joshua V. HIMES, age 48, born MA, a Farmer, parents born RI/MA Margaret A. HIMES, wife, age 31, born IL, Keeping House, parents born IL Walter HIMES, son, age 16, born OR, a Farm Laborer Harry L. HIMES, son, age 13, born ID Terr, at School Aleck HIMES, son, age 9, born ID Terr, at School Martha A. HIMES, dau, age 4, born ID Terr, at Home Naomi E. HIMES, dau, age 2, born ID Terr, at Home 1910 census of Colorado Springs, CO: Harry L. HIMES, age 43, married 8 years, born ID, parents born MA/IL, a Wholesale Grocery Clerk Julia G. HIMES, wife, age 34, married 8 years, born KY, parents born KY/PA Norman HIMES, son, age 3, born NE 1920 census of Platte, NE: Harry L. HIMES, age 54, born ID, parents born CA/IL Julian G. HIMES, wife, age 44, born KY, parents born KY, a Housewife Norman HIMES, son, age 12, born NE, in School I am hoping to locate someone from his family so that this wonderful old treasure can be returned to the care of his family. If you are a member of this HIMES Family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me.

Good luck with your earlier dates.

HOWARD 1835-19?? http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/read/COELPASO/2008-05/1211313076 You can request an obituary index search from www.ppld.org, Special Collections. There's a card index there, and if they find an obit, they will scan it and e-mail it to you. There are two Charles Howards buried in Evergreen Cemetery, Colorado Springs, but both have a different middle initial. There is a C. H. Howard buried in Fairview Cemetery, Colorado Springs: 005 025 SW HOWARD, C. H. Born: Died: Buried: 4 JUN 1910 Comments: No marker, information from sexton records There's a Cordelia Howard in the same block: C 005 025 WC HOWARD, Cordelia Born: Died: Buried: 1 JUL 1935 Comments: No marker, information from sexton records The 1910 census shows that Charles H. Howard is married to Cordelia, so perhaps this is your guy. Charles *may* be in the Colorado Springs Death Register, although he probably died in Colorado City, then not part of Colorado Springs. His obit may be in the Colorado City Iris, too, BTW, not the Colorado Springs Gazette, although indexes to both should be checked. If the library doesn't have time to check this for you, let me know, and I'll do it the next time I'm at the library.

So if he died in Colorado, then he was shipped back to Indiana. Hope there is someone out there than will have time to check this out further for me. Its one step closer to finding what happened to him. Have been looking for a long time now. Thanks to you or anyone who can help me.

People in the death register either died in Colorado Springs and were shipped elsewhere for burial or were buried in Evergreen Cemetery. They could have died elsewhere and were shipped in for burial in Evergreen, the large city-owned cemetery. I don't see him in the index to El Paso County cemeteries. The newspaper index should be checked too for a death notice or obituary.

Since his wife was a railroad agent working in Royerton Indiana, I am wondering if Reason also was working for the railroad ,and met with some kind of railroad accident. Was there any kind of railroad work taking place in 1904 in Colorado Springs. Is there anyone who could check the newspapers for this date to see if there is mention of an accident and death .
