I appreciate your input and had checked ancestry, findagrave, genealogybank, familysearch and the byu library since the event occurred in Utah. Had not thought to contact the individual entering the findagrave info. Am reluctant to put too much time into this as Linda is from Minn and unsure how she might have connected with Utah.

Thanks for your guidance.

Hi Lynda,
I searched for your Jack on Genealogybank and didn't find an obit for him - there were two obits - one mentioned a Johnson and the other mentioned a Jack Gailey - that was old enough to be Your Jacks father. But none for your Jack. I did find this though: http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=18...
maybe you can contact the contributor and see if they have anymore info?
You can email at: tamhbrih@aol.com

Best wishes,
Tammy

lyndam124 — 2013-04-30 21:37:25Z

Information I have (unsourced) is Linda Johnson married Jack Wendell Gailey on 17 Nov 1968 (no place cited)

Only Jack Wendell Gailey I have located in ancestry.com died in Utah and is buried in Riverview Cemetery. Death Date is 8 May 1976.

Would appreciate obituary - hopefully to connect to Johnson family.

judyartley53 — 2012-09-29 23:42:16Z

Hi Marcena,

Mary's death doesn't appear in Ancestry or FamilySearch but it appears she died in Box Elder Co or where he mother died. In 1910 she's not with her grandfather John in Terrace, Box Elder, UT nor is she with her grandmother and brothers in Montello, Elko, Nevada.

The Box Elder Co. deaths from 1898-1905 are available at the Utah Archives & Records Service, archives.utah.gov/research/inventories/84099.html. Successful Searching!

She had brothers Desmond b. 1883, Stanley b. 1894, Olaf b. 1898 (my grandfather) and sister Ethel b.1885 and a couple others who died in infancy.
she was married and died Estelle Postel in Jan 1963. She never used the first name Marie. They immigrated to the U.S in about 1903-05 into Vermont and are on the 1910 Lyndon Vermont census

I would be happy to share with you some family history I have on this great pioneer. I'm not sure of how many "greats" I am... but he is a great-great-great or something grandfather of mine. There is also a cute story of Grandpa Allen rescuing the young man that would one day be another Grandpa in my family. I actually have files that I was trying to post on here but was unable. My email is jessica_edstrom@yahoo.com email me and I'll send the stories to you.

Re: Kelton 1870's - Rosevear

yanname — 2012-07-09 03:45:46Z

I have put some names on the Find A Grave Website for Rosevear in the Kelton cemetery. I would like to see more information added for them. I am not related to any of them, but felt that they needed to be remembered somewhere. I have been there a couple of times back in the early 90's. It was so far away from any town. My Great Uncle used to take live stock to Kelton from Yost to be transported elswhere. My Grandma also took the train from Kelton to Reno, Nevada. She went there to marry my grandfather. So I think it was an important train stop for the area. If you would like control of the memorials on the Find A Grave Website just let me know and I will release them to you. I believe you have to be signed up though. R. Wood

Livermore Mary where did she die?

marcenath — 2012-05-10 15:10:39Z

Looking for some one to help me find little Mary Livermore who was in the 1900 census for Box Elder and was born in 1899. I believe she died sometime between 1900 and 1903. Her mother's obit said where her two boys were but nothing about little Mary. Her mother Mary Canfield Livermore Dixon died in Salt Lake City UT on April 21, 1904.

I don't know if you are still looking for descendents of John Davidson Burt or not, but I was just conversing with a cousin last night and she asked me some questions. I found your post from 10 years ago when I was looking for answers for her today. I too am a descendent of John Davidson Burt and Elizabeth Patterson through their daughter Elizabeth Patterson Burt and her husband William Gilbert. Their son, Leon Gilbert is my grandfather, my father is Arnold B Gilbert, one of eleven children.

HELLO,
Alva D was my grandfather. I would like to know if you were related to him as well. (My Dad was Chester Lee McGuire). I am interested in his career as an Attorney as well. I know he served as a judge in Riverside, Ca. and was a commissioner for Indian affairs as well. He lived in Elsinore, Ca at one point too. I don't have much information on him and I was only 9 yrs old when he died.
I would love to see the photo you have referenced here,

Hi, It's me again. I've found tons of articles on Alva McGuire, including an article in Box Elder dated 9-19-1916 that has a picture of him in the article. I've tried every way I can to make the picture clearer, but can't. This is the only known photo of him. Do you know where I might be able to obtain a copy of this photo that is more clear?

Re: Attorney in Tremonton & Box Elder County early 1900's

thoward8325 — 2011-07-25 12:50:42Z

You're right. There is quite a bit on him, but well worth the work of searching through the archives to find the articles. Again, Thanks!

rayharris185 — 2010-04-24 10:50:35Z

Trying to find any census etc information on the above - Henry's mother was Mary Burden (nee Angel) born in May 1849 at Winfrith, Dorset, England (Mary was my g.g.grand aunt)
The only information I have is from the 1901 census when Henry was living with his married sister Hannah at Wyke Regis, Dorset, England and working as a quarryman.
He married Sarah Kate Trent (not sure if in UK or USA as no record on UK BMD records) circa 1908. There is a WW1 draft registration record in 1918 showing him at Brigham City.
Any information would be appreiated

Hi,
I realize I am responing ato very old post, but I am a descendant of early Kelton Residents. My GG-grandfather George Tenbrook Rogers was a Blacksmith, Town Marshal (according to written family history), Postmaster. He was married while living in Kelton and had several children there, before moving to Honeyville.

I would love to connect with any other early settlers descendants. I have visited the town site many times with my children.

Looking for death and burial info on Norton Penny & Nellie Atwater. He is the son of Manasseh Penny and Phoebe Robinson. He was born in Suffolk NY Apr 1846. He moved to Henry Co, Il with his parents between 1850 & 1860. He married Nellie Atwater Jan 1866 in Henry Co, IL. She was born in 1847 in IL. In 1870 census I believe he is living in Hamilton Co, IA. There is a record at familysearch.org that says he died before 1887 in Brigham City, UT. I'd like to confirm this and find out where he & Nellie are buried.
Thank you for any help.

Re: FACER and SECHTENBERG

90sum3 — 2009-08-20 20:33:50Z

Hi

I think there must have been at least two George FACERs.

I have been researching the PRIOR family and found that Mary married George at St. Neots, Hunts 1857. They then moved to America early 1860s.

I have done nothing with regards to the FACERS. Although I have just had a look and it would appear that Georges parents were Henry and Mary. I am unable to confirm this I am only going by public trees on Ancestry and IGI Family Search.

If I can be of any further help please let me know.

Good Luck

I'm looking for Amy Bodily from Corinne, Utah in regards to her John Davidson Burt post from 14 Apr 2002:

I am the editor of Pioneer Magazine published by the Sons of Utah Pioneers. We publish a quarterly magazine featuring the history of the early pioneers in Utah. (Our website is www.sonsofutahpioneers.org).

Our next issue covers stories and journal entries on the every day lives and trials of the Mormon Pioneer. We are quoting quite a bit from the journal pages of Ann Howell Burt. I would like to find a picture of her to print in the magazine. Also, I have seen a picture of Ann with three grandchildren dated 1891, names listed as David and Moses Rosenbaum and Estras Jones

I'm interested in who these grandchildren are . . . are the first two from her daughter? Did these 3 go with her on her mission to the Sandwich Islands?? Also, when did Ann marry John D. Burt??

Is the grandchild David Rosenbaum related to the Utah artist: David “Howell” Rosenbaum (1908-1982) born in Brigham City, Utah. He was part of the group of artists who studied with Calvin Fletcher at Utah State Agriculture College in 1931.

I'm hoping your have more information on the life history of Ann Howell Burt . . . let me know! or if you know who I could contact.

Thank you!
