Sometime between 1884 and 1893 Jacob Remackel and his wife, Annie acquired an infant half blood native american male. They raiaed him to manhood. He is my grandfather. Does anyone have any clues for me. On his application for social security he wrote that he was from Davenport, IA and both his parents died when he was an infant. I suspect he may have been purchase by Jacob and Annie from the Mesquaki near Tama, IA. Bob Arens 651-736-7110

I'm looking for anyone that may have any connection to any of these families from Rose Hill and New Sharon. My g-g-grandparents are Caleb Lewis Kirk and Dorcas L. Gaston, daughter of Robert and Lydia (Sou(e)) Gaston. I know of one brother, David Gaston, from Dorcas' Civil War Pension Records. Caleb and Dorcas had two daughters, Rosella Viola Kirk who married El(l)wood Radcliff Briggs and Minnie Laura Kirk who married Edmund Baron Dorr (my g-grandparents). After Caleb died from a severe wound from his service at the Battle of Shiloh, Dorcas remarried to George W. Bump. When he died, she remarried again to Levi L. McBride and lived in Kansas - Dorcas outlived Levi also and died in 1932 in Leavenworth, Kansas. Caleb is buried in the National Cemetery in Keokuk, Lee Co., Iowa.
