Would like to find out some information on William McLuen and his ancesters. He had a daughter named Hazel born around 1892 and lived in Perry, Iowa. I believe his wife was Lydia. Any information would be appreciated as I have none.

I have a story about "Grandfather Billy", told to me by my father, Vincent Ward McLuen, born in 1909 in Perry, Iowa. Want to hear it?

My gggGrandparents, James and Bedelia Mcluen came from Roscommon, Ireland to Noble County Ohio in 1833 and then to Guthrie Center, Iowa in 1853. Their son William J. Mcluen was an older brother of my ggGrandmother Susan Mcluen Frizell. If this is your "Grampa Billy" please contact me kizmet@att.net. I have a bunch of pictures of what I believe to be William J with Bedelia and William's wife Mary and their 13 children.

My gg gpa was John brother to William, I would love to hear the story. I also have alot of information on William, and James, and a bit about the sisters if anyone would like for me to share, contact me.

I would love to see the pictures, can you email them?

I am working on the Family of William McLuen who married Lydia Elliott. I am having a hard time figuring out who is his first wife, mother of Carlton and Anna. Would appreciate any help and any information on this family.

I am doing a descendancy project on the Elliotts and allied families. My information is posted on WeRelate. Here is an overview with links to the people I have so far. http://www.werelate.org/wiki/User:Jlanoux/Elliott_Project

Please provide any information you may have.
I would definitely like to hear the Grandfather Billy story.
