Notes for NANCY ANNA GIESLER:

1.) Crawford Co., MO - Probate Court Records settling the John Giesler Sr. estate.

The estate settlement of John Giesler Sr. took from 1846 to 1854 in the Crawford Co. court at
Steelville, MO. His daughter Nancy Ann Gray is mentioned as an heir to this estate.

Notes for SARAH A.:

Howell Co., MO Deed Records - Deed BK G, pg. 166 (film #931682)

17 Nov 1873 - Sarah Ann Gray to Martin Gray - her interest in his lands for $80.00.

     Oct 12, 1875 - Sarah brought proof to the Howell Co. Probate court that she was the widow of
     Martin Gray and asked for $400.00 dower from Martin's estate. The court then ordered Martin's
     lands appraised and the widow's dower set apart.

    July 11, 1876 - Howell Co., MO Probate Court - J.C.B. Dixon petitioned the court to discontinue
    the administration of the estate of Martin Gray as there was no personal estate enough over that
    due the widow, Sarah. He wanted all the land given to the widow (since he already purchased her
    interest in those lands, his motive here is suspect.)

1880 census - no sign of the widow Sarah Gray in Howell Co. and no re-marriage in the records
for her. Believe she milked this cow dry, and moved on to fresh territory.

He was summoned by the Howell Co. court and traveled to Howell Co., MO about 1877 to answer petition with other heirs regarding partition of lands of Martin Gray.

4.) Howell Co., Missouri - 5 March 1875 - W.H. Bacon, admin. of Martin Gray, dec'd sells his personal property at a private sale - Samuel and Sarah M. Gray are purchasers at this sale and also appear on a deed dated 30 April 1875 with Elizabeth & John Parker selling their interest in Martin's land to Alfred Mustion for $200.00. This is curious as they had no right to do that - the estate had not been divided. So Samuel and Sarah took their half and went to Indiana.

Notes for ELIZEBETH GRAY:

Buried Evergreen Cemetery, Howell Co., MO

Her age changes over the years - in her parent's household she's born 1843, however
after shemarries she get's younger. Worldconnect posting by Jackie
Ullom shows her b. 1839, making her much older than she ever appeared on census.

Her obit sent by Shirley Dawson states she was in Howell Co. during the
Civil War and she stayed alone while husband and brothers enlisted.
More info needed to confirm this, since we know her brothers
served in the 32nd Inf which was from Maries/Phelps Co. area.
The obit names Thomas Parker as a step-son. Descendants believe Frank and Thomas were step children and that all others are hers,
placing her marriage to John about 1863. Further it states she raised her step children, her own and grandchildren
of deceased daughter.

Notes for JOHN PARKER:

Children from posting on Worldconnect by Jackie Ullom. Patti Ann Hall Smith provided dates and cemetery records - both buried Evergreen Cemetery, Howell Co., MO.

4.) Howell Co., MO Probate Court records from Shirley Dawson:

Isaac died before April 1875 in Howell Co. and originally a C.N.E. Shutee was named administrator,
then later a Ben S. Organ appointed. Josephine was appointed guardian of the minor children.

November 1877 Josephine petitioned the court to sell the lands of Martin Gray in order to pay for her
children's education. This names minor heirs as Annie F. and
Jonathan Gray. The land (111 3/4 acres) was appraised and valued
and their share sold for $25.00 to J.C.B. Dixon in Feb 1878.

Later documents stating heirs of Martin Gray show Isaac's children as Annie, Jonathan and Mary.
No sign of any of these children in 1880 census.

previous to her father and Bacon remarried to Rosa Coffee.
