Grandmother Lee leaves some eighteen grandchildren making a host of immediate relatives who will miss her kindly face. She became a member of the church at the age of seventeen and always lived a Christian life. The one who has lived closest to her life testified of her, he never heard her speak ill of anyone. She was a loving wife, a kind mother, loved in her community and is now mourned by many.

For more details on Annie there is an obit located on www.usgenweb.com/ Golden Valley, North Dakota from the 'The Beach Advocate Newspaper' dated the 14th of January 1916.
****
Annie is my Great Grand Aunt.
***
Ed and Annie CLARK RUNK were in Haynesville, Pratt, KS in 1885 KS State Census with her brother Charles CLARK(bn 1873, Kansas) who would travel to Billings/Golden Valley; their brother, William Henry CLARK(bn 1868 KS) (My GGrandfather) and his wife Lottie Rose DAVIS HEILAND CLARK (bn 1874 PA)would follow with his family in 1905/06 and settle in Sentinel Butte. Her two children from her first marriage Edgar B. HEILAND, Frances L. HEILAND and their first son Roy Jurden CLARK (all born in KS). The rest of their children would be born in Sentinel Butte, some at Annie's home.

I believe Annie and Ed met in Cherokee County, KS, Ed's brother Addison RUNK was living there with his family, and Lottie's family was in Lyon TWP and Columbus in Cherokee County, KS.

In 1914/15 time frame, Lottie moved back to Kansas with seven of the children. William took off with Roy and lived in Kidder County, ND. Charles stayed in the area for awhile and would meet up with William.

It would be 53 years before Roy would meet up with his siblings in CA, at my parents home.

A book was just published with information on the Golva cemetery and Burkey cemetery. I may be able to find the information you are looking for.

Re: Golva Cemetery

Burkey Cemetery was located south and east of Golva, ND. I can't confirm the burials being moved tho.

Edwin and Annie CLARK RUNK

DesireeGreen89 — 2006-10-17 15:18:49Z

Edwin Marion RUNK b. 1857 Indiana d. after 1920 before 1930

married Annie CLARK b. 1858/1863 Indiana d before 1920 in Beach, Golden Valley, North Dakota

They had three children:

1) George J. RUNK b.1879 Indiana
married Ollie (UNKNOWN) b 1870 Iowa
one child that was adopted Edna b. 1905 Idaho. I
believe Edna never married. She was adopted when
George and Ollie were living in Pomperoy,
Garfield, Washington. (Census 1920)

2) John Nathan RUNK b. 24 April 1886 Indian Territory
married Alta b. abt 1885 Indiana. I have not been
able to find anymore information since the 1915
Census Beach, Golden Valley, North Dakota.

3) Earl A. b. 1888 Indiana
married (UNKNOWN) He is listed as a Widower in the
1920 Census for Beach Golden Valley,
North Dakota.

Edwin is the son of Jacob Johnson (b 1817 New Jersey) and Hannah FAUGOT RUNK (b 16 May 1830 Indiana).

Edwin and Annie traveled to Beach, Billings County at that time to Homestead in the early 1900's. They stopped in Sheridan, Cherokee County, Kansas to visit with his older brother Addison and his family who had settled there 1878/79. His brother-in-laws William Henry CLARK and Charlie E. CLARK both born in Kansas traveled with them from Cherokee County, Kansas and Homesteaded along Horse Creek area. William traveled with his wife and her two children from her first marriage and their first child. The other five children would all be born in Senntial Butte, Billings/Golden Valley, North Dakota.

I am searching for death dates and burial locations and of course anything else that pretains to these families.

She grew up in MIlnor ND and then moved to Beach ND. She and Glen were married abd had three boys Ray, Rex, and Reese. Glen was in poor heath and sometime after 1923 left Beach ND and went to a warmer climate. Leaving Daisy and the three boys in Beach ND. She ran a rooming house or hotel. It was called the Bluebird. I lost contact with this family after the 1930 Federal Census. If this sound like someone you know of please email me at bjhom@chibardun.net.

Pattie - I'm thrilled to connect with you. Henrietta was the older sisten of my great grandfather, Denison Branscom. I would like to get as much information as I can and would be glad to share what I've accumulated. I'm working with a researcher in Albany NY by the name of Fred Tubbs who is finalizing a second edition of the Branscom book and I'm the point person on Henrietta & Denison's father, Henry and his family.

If you have any electronic records like Family Tree Maker or a GEDCOM file, I can send you what I have or I would be glad to mail you a hard copy as well.

If you'd prefer, send me an e mail direct and I can give you my additional contact information rather than posting it here on line.

Golva Cemetery

pbbut — 2003-05-21 16:31:40Z

I have some information I'm attempting to confirm and hope someone can help. Does anyone know of an old cemetery in the area called Burkey or the Burkey Cemetery? It was supposed to have been closed and all the folks buried there were reinterred in Golva. My problem is I can find no reference to a town, township, or settlement referred to as Burkey either in Golden Valley or Slope counties except in this one word-of-mouth case, which is no longer able to be confirmed.
