Minerva married Lewis N Peckenpaugh probably around 1886. They had 4 children, the last born in 1899. I assume she died and Lewis married her sister. Their 1st child, Bertha Mae, born in 1900 was my grandmother. They had two more childreen that lived. One, Emma Marzilla is still alive living in Pryor, OK. She married a LLoyd. I would appreciate any info on the Trembles.

Thanks,

Is this the Lewis Peckenpaugh, b. 1851, who was found in Paola, Miami, Kansas in the 1880 census? If so, his wife Minerva was 36 (so born abt 1844) at the time and they had a son, Henry, who was 2. The census says she was born in Indiana and her parents were born in WV and KY. How do you know her maiden name was Tremble?

There was a Minerva Trimble in the 1880 census, age 13, with her family- father's name James Trimble, mother Sarah. Barnetts Creek, Johnson, Kentucky

The Lewis A Peckenpaugh born in 1850 was the father of Lewis N. Peckenpaugh born in 1870. I have visited with Emma Marzella (Peckenpaugh) Lloyd who was the youngest daughter of Lewis N Peckenpaugh and Anne Tremble. Lewis N Peckenpaugh was the son of Lewiis A Peckenpaugh and Angeline Wooley. A good site to check for the Peckenpaughs is at http://distantcousin.com/ Thanks for the info.

What other information do you have on these two? Give us everything you know - esp. birthdates - even if approx. Death date? There were several Minerva Trimble in the census records but no way to match anything without dates and more info.
