Message Board Post:

I am searching for my maternal grandmother's maternal grandmother's family who originally came from Green County, KY, to Macon Co., MO, between 1881-1887. My g-g-grandfather was Richard Silson Lile b.09 Mar 1848, supposedly in Marion Co., MO, & m.1869 or 1870 to Lucetta (sp?) Catherine/Katherine Asbury b.1849 KY d.1891 MO. I believe she died in Macon Co., since a letter from her brother was mailed in re: to receiving notice of her death to his niece, my g-grandmother, Mary Elizabeth "Mollie" Lile, in Atlanta, Macon, MO. Mollie's siblings were Flavious Joe (1871-1962), William Tony (1874-1945), Allie Woodie (1880-1961), Emmett Loyd (1881-1970) & Pleasant Montgomery (1887-1981). Pleas was the only one born in Macon Co, supposedly in Atlanta. I am looking for any records (vital documents or family Bible, etc.) re: this family or their ancestors. I have so far been unable to locate a burial index for Caty, & do not know how she died. There is apparently another sibling, M!
attie, who was born between William & Pleas, & was living w/another family by the name of Smoot, as the youngest were split up, after Caty died. Mattie apparently married one of them, as she became Mattie Smoot, have one photo of her with Mollie. Mollie married Abraham Frank Lucas in Bevier, Macon, MO on 28 Jan 1894, though neither of them are listed as living there. I believe it says Atlanta & Independence. Where they lived immediately afterward, unsure, but their oldest, daughter Sarah Catherine "Sadie" Lucas was b.19 Nov 1894 in Brookfield, Linn, MO. Frank Lucas's parents were Nathaniel & Sarah Lucas, & last find them in 1880 in Grantsville, Linn, MO. No record on them beyond that.

Any help much appreciated on these people. Willing to share what I have as well.

Amy Southall
