Keith,
I will help you where I can...Ok, Noah Garren died after 1880 in Union Township, Worth County, Missouri. Catherine "Katy" Garren died Aug 4, 1880 in Union Township, Worth County, Missouri. I have been trying for a few years to locate their gravesites, but have been unsuccessful. The obvious choices would be in Sheridan or Grant City, Missouri, both being prominent neighboring cities in Union Township. It is also possible that they were buried in a smaller cemetery in the country.

On to Malinda & Matthew Smith...Malinda did in fact die while giving birth. To my knowledge, however the children were left with Noah & Catherine, not Mary Ann, whom I believe died years prior. In Census records, the children are shown living with Noah & Catherine. I do have a bit of information on the children after moving to the west coast. I am also looking for a gravesite for Malinda Garren Smith. I have been to Taylor County several times, with no luck of finding her in a cemetery or records.

As far as information I am looking for...As you know...Sarah Elizabeth Garrean married Charles Morris Chambers. I have quite a bit of information on them, but I am always looking for more. I know there is alot that I am missing and would love some help there. Also, I have info on your line all the way down to you and your wife, but I don't have any information on your children, was just wondering if you would share that information. I have a Lydia Leona Chambers as one of Oliver and Lavina's children, but I only have a birth date for her, no death, no spouse, no children....could you help fill in these blanks.

I also have their daughter Nellie and her husband Walter William George Wredt, but no death for her, or children, grandchildren, etc.

Also, Rollin Edward Chambers...I have his birth date and that he married Eloise Maureen Travis, but I don't have a death date for either of them, if they are passed. I have their son as Billy Joe Chambers, and his birth and death. Was he ever married with children?

Another mystery for me is Lenora Chambers, who married Marion Jensen. I have no information on Marion, and did they have children, grandchildren? Did Thomas Chambers from Charles Morris' first marriage ever get married or have children, grandchildren? I am also missing exact dates for all of the children from Charles Morris and Albertye.

Also, any information on Lansford Chambers' descendants would be much appreciated. Would you happen to know any information about the children from Sarah Elizabeth Garrean's other marriage. The Wolfenberger Children?

I know, this is a whole lot of questions for you to answer, but it would be much appreciated. In turn, I will answer any questions you may have on the Garren/Garrean family, I do have extensive information on that side of the family. By any chance, do you have photos of any of the family members? That is my new thing, I am on a hunt for old pictures, kind of to put a face with the people.

Thank you for all your help, and don't hessitate to ask for anything.

Steve Garrean Jr.
