Looking for J.W. DOBBS and Judy SHARP DOBBS. If they are on an 1870 census in Iowa, with a 2 year old and an infant, there could be a connection. Possibly they are the parents of my great-grandfather, Frank JACKSON, who changed his name and moved to Texas.

I am searching for information on Elizabeth BRANT who married Orson BOGLE on Nov. 28, 1847 in Cedar County, Ia. She and her husband are listed in the 1850 Benton Co, IA census and remained in Benton County until presumbably the 1860's when she had to sell her land. Orson BOGLE died 1857. He and Elizabeth had several children. It is believed that Elizabeth after the death of her husband married a Mr. FOOTE. It is also possible that a daughter moved to New York and married a Mr. WEBB. Thank you for any assitance, Roger Green.

GRIFFIN, Bryant Vinton, Benton County IA 1865 - 1901 b. July 22, 1847, family returned to Ontario about 1852. He went to Iowa from Ontario about 1865; may have farmed, as he wrote his brother about opportunity with fertile soil, etc. (His brother, Zebina F. Griffin, my GGrandfather, took advice and went to Vinton area 1866 for a couple of years. He sold wood to school for the blind.) In 1901 obituary for his father, Jacob Griffin, Wisconsin, Bryant Griffin had died “in active manhood” and had been a lawyer in Vinton IA. One uncorroborated source says he died 1/1876. Seeking any information regarding marriages, children, work, death. Thanks
