MCCULLEY posted by Margaret S McCulley Chambers on Saturday, June 4, 2011

MCCULLEY--Renewing the request posted earlier about any information regarding the MCCULLEY School in Polk Township that was on the Dr James A and Sarah MCCULLEY farm. It was used as both a school and church. Any information about the child Sarah MCCULLEY listed in the 1870 census, but not the 1880 census, regarding her birth, death and/or burial would also be appreciated.

CULP, IRWIN, PINGENAT, PINGENOT, RECROIX, URMY posted by PINGENAT Denis on Wednesday, July 20, 2011

Completing the PINGENOT-PINGENAT familytree, I'm seeking any information or documents about Francois-Joseph PINGENOT, known as Joseph Franklin PINGENOT in english and his wife Madeleine (=Madeline) RECROIX. They leaved the village of Phaffans (France) and settled in Benton County in 1879 with daughter Josephine (married 1895 in Chicago IL with Gustave Stanson), son Francois-Joseph (known as Joe, married in Vinton IA with Jennie Shaffer), son Francois-Aguste (known as August Frank) PINGENOT established in Mason City, married with Harriet Hunt, daughter Josephine-Augustine PINGENOT who died 1942 at the Iowa Hospital for Insane. Lewis Frank PINGENOT was born in Benton County in 1884, probably married three times to Jessie CULP, Ethel URMY and Ruth Esther IRWIN. I would like to know if he really was their last child.

Joseph Franklin PINGENOT apparently died in Garrison 08/10/1897. Is it possible to find his obituary? His wife Madeleine RECROIX returned to France and died in her native village of Phaffans 06/30/1900.

I would be pleased to contact their descendants to share our discoveries. I can provide information about the french and alsatian ancestry of the PINGENOT family to everyone interested. So, don't be afraid to email me at following adress: pingenat@club-internet.fr

BEAR, HULL, PATTON posted by Barbara Patton on Tuesday, August 2, 2011

Surnames: HULL and PATTON. I would like to share information with Randall A. HULL. He had a query submitted on April 25, 1998, but the email is not valid anymore. I have lots of information on Thomas & Anne (HULL) PATTON and Elijah and Betsey (BEAR) HULL; they lived in Benton County. Originally, they were from Mercer Co., PA and Trumbull Co., Ohio. After Benton, Pattons and Hulls moved to Cherokee Co., and later to Lyon Co., Iowa.

GUNN posted by Paul on Sunday, August 7, 2011

I thought that I had located Joseph GUNN thru findagrave http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=53033251 and Nancy Boyd GUNN http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=53033409. A volunteer went to the Urbana grave yard, but could not locate the grave for Joseph and Nancy. I'm for someone that may have a complete directory/index for Urbana Cemetery that can verify whether Joseph and Nancy GUNN are indeed buried in Urbana Cemetery. Once the grave is located, I'm looking for a picture of the gravestone.
