I just wanted to let you know I have found my great-grandfather. He was G. W. Brinsfield, he was born in 1854 and he married Alice Abels on Feb. 12, 1884 (could be 13) That is the only information I have found on him, unless he didn't make Alice a widow but left her and their children for indian country and another women. Alice is listed as a widow in 1900 and her last baby was born 1895. I have been asking for help and you were kind enough to try. I'm still looking for more information but I am thankful I found this. Thought you might be interested. Thanks again!
