Welcome to all... This is my very first attempt at a Webpage. I have been searching my family tree for nearly three years. The name that are in my family tree are Langsdon, Fine, Crocker, Kelley, Howard, Dunn, Pruett, and Valentine. I have hit a brick wall in seaching all of these names. I know very little after such a long search. What I do know is:
My ggggrandfather came to America from Germany, and he married Catherine Valentine from Boston. They traveled west to Montana on a wagon train. At which time my gggrandmother, their daughter Ellen Langsdon, met and married Joby Kelley and was disowned by her family. The moved to Carthersville Mo, or near there. I only know this because my ggrandmother was born there.
My ggrandmother Ida B. Kelley met and married Robert Lee Crocker. I am not aware of any siblings of Ida, but Robert Lee Crocker had two brothers, James (Jim) and William (Bill) and two sisters Mary Crocker who married a James no first name. and Ella Crocker who married a Campbell again no first name. Their parents were Albert Crocker who was a twin, and Cynthia Dunn. They were born in Fulton Mississippi. That leads me to my grand mother Carrie Edith (Living).
Carrie Edith married my grandfather Cecil B Howard. His parents were Thomas Howard and Sylvia Harrison Howard. I have been told that Sylvia was a direct descendant of Willaim Henry Harrison.
