In Response To: Austin Sizemore buried in Mapel Hill Cemetery (Sheri Reeder)

Sheri, I live in Keosauqa,Ia. I have part of these names on both sides of my family. Here is what I have. Mary Elizabeth Colter 24 sep.1864-3 Feb.1934 Married Austin (Doc) Sizemore 24 Dec. 1884 at Unionville,Mo. Life was hard with Austin as they were very poor. three children, Austin worked in the timber industry. She related she gave birth to the twins alone having to go to neighbors to borrow something to put them in.They had no means of travel Doc just up and took off with one of the twins,never to return.The other twin died of whooping cough,buried in Maple Hill Cem. Birmingham and left Mary to raise the daughter(Ella Lucinda Sizemore) alone. She then married John F. Hendrix who passed and she was left homeless. She then married Joseph Hymes. I do have a copy of a picture of Doc & Mary holding the twins.Tho Gerry Colter of Canada could probably tell you more. On my mothers side of family tree I have a picture of Jasper See
