Jack I am doing work on the Westervelt side of your lines, with a quick look I found Simon Westervelt Married to a Lena McNults I think they are the smae people even though the wife has a diffierent spelling of last name. Simon is the 8th child of Lewis Ransom Westervelt born 9 mar 1841 In Ohio and Martitia Tibbetts born in 1845 in Iowa. As I said they had 9 chrildren 1 Matthew born 1865 in Iowa, Nellie Born 1867 in Iowa, Asa born in 1869 in Crowford,Cherokee, Kanas, Minnie born in 1871 in Kanas, Cora born in 1873 in Kanas, Arhtur born 1875 in Kanas, Clayton Lewis born 1878 in Kanas, Simon born 1880 Kanas, and Fred born 25 nov 1881 in Sheridan, Cherokee, Kansas. Most of the information came form the 1880 cences the only two I forund towns for were Asa and Fred. Fred married Mattie Dale Pickering in Oswego,Legette,Kansas on 30 jul 1904, I will see if I can find any more information if you have any information on Lena's life or family I would like to have it.
