First Brick wall has to be Philip Hires and Josephine Blondon/Blondell. These are the parents of Roberta Cecelia Hires. Philip was born in Hanover, (unknown County) Pennsylvania in 1838. He first married Mary Sanders (possibly Xanders) in Illinois. He and Mary had 6 children. It is unknown whether they were divorced or if Mary died. Philip then married Josephine, they had 3 children together: Cleveland Stevenson Hires, Roberta Cecelia Hires and Cinderella Hires. Josephine died around 1905 probably in Butler County, Missouri. Philip died in Poplar Bluff, Butler County, Missouri, on 13 April, 1928. If you have any information on this family, PLEASE email me! |
Second brick wall is Andrew Lee Brown Even though I have information on Andrew's parents and wife, it is all very sketchy, mostly from family members. I know that Andrew and his family moved from PA to Poplar Bluff, Butler County, Missouri in 1890. I would like to know the parents of his wife Sarah Burk, and also would love to find any census or documentation on his family. Thanks |
