Mailing address: 5654 S. Hydraulic Wichita, KS 67216-4117 Query: I am searching for the death date of John H. Bowers and his wife, Mary. They are buried in the Pioneer cemetery in Cheney but have no markers. The current owners of the mortuary do not know where the old records are. I was given the lot numbers by a lady at the Cheney museum but she said there were no death dates recorded. From birthday cards, I figure John died in 1912 or 1913. By pictures and an obituary of their daughter, I assume Mary died after 1924 and before 1927. Any help would be appreciated. |

Query: Two relatives, Gustave BARTH and Albert LEICHHARDT have biographies in Cutler's History of Kansas, in the Sedgwick Co, Afton Twp Section. See URL http://raven.cc.ku.edu/~hisite/kancoll/books/cutler/sedgwick/sedgwick-co-p29.html#AFTON TOWNSHIP. Both biographies mention the men were members of the school board, and G. Barth was also an Afton Twp Trustee. Are there any records of these organization from this time which survive? Don't particularly need genealogical data for these men, but am always interested in collecting personal details. Several of Albert's daughters were teachers, and I've heard his mother Dora Clausen Leichhardt was also involved in education. Would love confirmation of this. |
