Matriarch Sarah
Brooks, b. 1795, widow of
Eli, moved from
Franklin Co, IN, to Middle
Fork with her dau Charlotte (
Brooks)
Howe bef 1860. She is in Charlotte's household for the 1860 & 70 Census - looking for death/burial info for Sarah.
Charlotte
Brooks, b. abt 1831, was married to
Thornton F. Howe (enumerated 1860, Middle
Fork, as L. F. Howes) and had Aletha C/1852, Sarah A/1854, and Mary L/Apr 1860. Can find no trace of Aletha aft 1860 Census, no trace of Mary aft 1870 Census, and looking for confirmation that Sarah is the one that m. Noah
Jarvis (1880 Census, Middle
Fork) and later moved to
Barnes Co, ND.
Widow Charlotte (

Glendenning, & they live out their days in Middle
Fork. They had: Florence B./1864, Henrietta/1866, William A/1869, Matilda Jane/abt 1874, & Belle/1884.
Can find nothing on Florence B. aft 1880 Census
Henrietta m. William R. Locke & moved to
Stanton Co, NE bef 1910. Ch: William M./1894, Belle/1896, & Adria Faith/May 1899.
William A. possibly married Sarah Adella Medaris?
Belle
Glendenning m. William H. Scott; 1920 Census, they are in Spring Creek,
Mahaska, IA, with two nieces, Nellie & Verabel
Mason, in the household. Did William &
Belle have any children of their own, and who are the parents of the
Mason nieces?
Matilda Jane

Waugh and had: Clifton Vern/1901,
Fern Eva/1903, Fairy Odean/1904,
Flora Bell/1906, Glenna/1907, & Hazel/1910.
Looking for confirmation that
Flora Bell &
Glenna never married; they are in SSDI under their maiden names.
Clifton Vern m. Alta Miller & moved to
Worth Co, MO; his dau Alice Deane
Waugh m. Glen Gardner?
Fern Eva
Waugh m. Floyd Jackson; they d. late 1900s, Mount Ayr: ch. Hope Ellen/1925, Marjorie Marie/Oct 1928, & Anna Louise/aft 1930.
Fairy
Waugh m. 1948 John H. Craft; can't find her in 1930 Census. Did she have a previous marriage or children. There is a Odean Craft in SSDI, d. 2004, Cook Co, IL.
Hazel
Waugh poss m. 1936 Luther Earl
Jackson, & had children, but don't know if that was in
Ringgold Co, or in
Worth Co, MO.
1930 Census: Charles
Waugh household suddenly has a son Clarence, age 25. Clarence is a public school teacher, as are Charles's daughters
Flora,
Glenna & Hazel. Clarence was not in the household for the 1910 or 1920 Census - who is Clarence
Waugh?
Lucinda
Brooks, b. abt 1835,
Franklin Co, IN, is a younger sister of Charlotte (
Brooks) (
Howe)
Glendenning. She m. Charles Simpson; 1860 Census in Middle
Fork. Children: Francis M.(male)/1846, Henry C./1852, Martha J./1854, Hiram L./1858, & Mikela A./1860. Can find not trace of this family aft 1860 Census. The oldest child, Francis, in only 9 years younger than Lucinda, so at least some of Charles' children have to be from an earlier marriage; how many?
All listed are descendants of
Eli & Sarah
Brooks of
Franklin Co, IN; my g-g-g-grandparents through their son Jeremiah, who never moved to
Ringgold Co
