I was given some information that Sophia Day married Charles Cockriel. I could find no record of his marriages, either his first or second wife. So, I pieced together the following information:
Charles Cockriel married Sophi (I believe Day). Sophia died between the 1900 and 1910 Federal Census records. By 1910, Charles had remarried, a woman named Francis. The census indicates it is a second marriage for both of them.. The marriage of Charles Cockriel (b. January 1870 in Indiana) and Sophia Day (b. 1873 in Indiana) is verified by their children's marriage records.
* 1910: Ruth Cockriel married Frank Rosenbaum. The marriage records list Sophia A. Day and C.W. Cockriel as her parents.
* June 1920: Mary Francis "Cochrill" married Nathan H. Baynes. Father is Chas. W. Cochrill and mother is Sophia
* November 1920: Goldie Edna Cockriel (b. 1901), married John F. Trail. Father is Charles Cockriel and Francis Day. I believe this is a mistake and that the birth mother actually was Sophia Day since Charles Cockriel never married Francis Day.
This evidence is supported by the 1910 census. Fanny M. Cockriel has had one child and one child is living. Also in the household is Audrey Lanham, step son to Charles Cockriel. The natural conclusion is that Audrey is Fanny's only child.
* May 1922: Vernie Cockriel (b. 1904) married James G. Lomax. Father is Charles W. Cockriel and mother is Sophia Broadwell. Again, I believe this is a mistake. The 1910 census says C.W. Cockriel only married twice, Sophia and Fanny. I wonder if Broadwell is the maiden name of the second wife, Fanny.

Jennie Alwida Johnson and John V. Carter's Children
21 January 2015
I'm so excited. Today I found three children for Jennie!! A couple of weeks ago I found another child of hers.
Jennie was married in 1883 and died in 1899. Therefore, she missed the 1890 census record. Here are the records that I found:
* Child of Jennie J. Carter, buried 15 April 1899
- Burial in Crown Hill Cemetery in Indianapolis. The plot number is: section 2, Lot 109. Find A Grave Memorial# 45901042
-Burial in Crown Hill Cemetery in Indianapolis. The plot number is: section 2, Lot 109. Find A Grave Memorial# 45901182
This is Jennie's burial and her child's. I assume that both died with complications of child birth. But, I don't have any documentation to that end yet.
* Margaret Louise Carter, b. 1896 or 1897; died 1991
- Sons of American Revolution application; Margaret's son applied for a membership. The application listed her full name as Margaret Louise Carter Ditrich. Her husband is Alvan Dittrich. and her two parents are John Vestal Carter and Jennie Johnson. The application also lists marriage and death dates.
Margaret was not living with her father in the 1900 census. I looked for Margaret on the 1900 Census and found a Margaret Carter living in Indianapolis. His name is Francis Carter. He was born about 1847. His parents are from Ohio.
In the 1910 Census, Margaret
In the 1900 census, John V. Carter's parents are identified as being born in Ohio. This is different than the 1910 and 1920 census records which list their birth place as Indiana. To verify this information, I looked at the marriage record for John Carter and Jennie Johnson. The marriage record says his parents are: Jas W Carter and Susan Carter.
The 1870 Census for James Carter and Susan Carter have a John V. Carter living with them. In the census, both of them are listed as being born in Ohio.
Therefore, I conclude that the Margaret living with Francis is the daughter of John V. Carter and Jennie Johnson. The 1900 Census also lists two other children, a niece, Susan Carter, and a nephew, Hugh Carter. I also conclude that both of these children are also children of John and Jennie.

Ethel Mae Mabee b. 1882
Today I found three marriages for Ethel Mae Mabee, daughter of Gabriel D. Mabee and Ida Jane Clow. I am not sure how the first two marriages fit together, but I have plenty of records documenting the marriage to George Schwartz.
Marriage to George Schwartz:
The last marriage was to George Schwartz from Ashford, Cattaraugus, New York. This was proven by a marriage record which listed Ethel's parents as well as the fact that it was her second marriage. In addition, the 1930 census record shows Ethel Schwartz being born in South Dakota with her father being born in Canada and her mother being born in Illinois.
Marriage to Harvey N. Best
There is a marriage record for Ethel M. Mobee (This is the indexed spelling. I have not seen the actual record.) This record identifies a marriage to Harvey N. Best on December 26, 1906, in Lake City, Calhoun, Iowa. Her parents are listed as G.D. Mobee and Ida J. Clow. This is definitely Ethel May Mabee.
Ancestry.com has another marriage record for Harvey N. Best in 1910. This record lists him as divorced. South Dakota Marriages: Marriage Record for Harvey N. Best
Marriage to John D. Allyn
Ethel has three children with the last name of Allyn. The first was born
The 1930 census record for Little Valley, New York lists two of George's step children with the last name of Allyn. I found a couple of obituary records for Lyle Harvey Allyn that identify his father as John D. Allyn and his mother as Ethel Mabee Allyn.
The documentation for the that proves the census record is Ethel May Mabee comes from two different obituary records. There is a record on Ancestry.com that is an index of people mentioned in Lyle Allyn's obituary. Among those names are John D. Allyn and Ethel Mabee Allyn.
I also found a transcript of the obituary on GenealogyBank.com. The obituary reads as follows:
The Social Security Death Index lists Lyle Harvey's birth and death dates. SS Death Record for Lyle Allyn
Possible Conclusion
Lyle Harvey Allyn was born Februay 1, 1907, but Ethel M. Mabee wasn't married to Harvey N. Best until December 26, 1906. It is possible that Lyle H. Allyn was the illegitimate child of John D. Allyn. Lyle's middle name is Harvey, which is the same name as her spouse.
It is possible that the marriage didn't last, and Ethel followed John D. Allyn to New York where they had two more children before that relationship ended for good. Was she ever married to John D. Allyn? It is possible that the answer is no. The marriage record of her marriage to George Schwartz indicated that it was her second marriage.

Ora Lee Reyburn and Samuel B. Saddler
28 April 2014
I am looking for evidence that Ora Lee Reyburn is the daughter of John Andrew Johnson Reyburn and Sallie E. Adkins. I have not been able to find that evidence. The connection for me came initially from a Family Tree in Ancestry.com as well as a file from a correspondent from several years ago. I have not found any proof of that.

Mary Appleton Monroe Stewart, Mother of Otis Elmer Monroe
Today I worked to find more information about Marry Appleton's family.
Background Information
Mary first married Jacob Monroe. They married in 1858 in Indiana. They had three children, Thomas A. Monroe, born about 1859; Otis Elmer Monroe, about born 1864; John Alva Monroe born about 1868.
In 1862, Jacob joined the Union army in the 70th Indiana Military Infantry; Company K, as a private.
A family tree on Ancestry.com says he died in March 1872.
This makes sense because Mary married a second time in 1873. She married James H. Stewart. In the 1880 census, it shows Mary, James, and two of the boys living in Kansas. In 1882, Mary applied for a pension as the widow of Civil War soldier, James Monroe. At the time, she was living in Cherryvale, Kansas.
Questions
I have never been able to find any more information about Mary, James, or her children.
Research on March 29, 2014; Possible Match for Thomas A. Monroe
A family tree on Ancestry says that his name is Thomas Allen Monroe. And, it says that he was born in October 1859. Moreover, suggested records by Ancestry for this accompany this record link to the 1870 census for Thomas A. Monroe.
Need more information about to verify

Background Information
Mary first married Jacob Monroe. They married in 1858 in Indiana. They had three children, Thomas A. Monroe, born about 1859; Otis Elmer Monroe, about born 1864; John Alva Monroe born about 1868.
In 1862, Jacob joined the Union army in the 70th Indiana Military Infantry; Company K, as a private.
A family tree on Ancestry.com says he died in March 1872.
This makes sense because Mary married a second time in 1873. She married James H. Stewart. In the 1880 census, it shows Mary, James, and two of the boys living in Kansas. In 1882, Mary applied for a pension as the widow of Civil War soldier, James Monroe. At the time, she was living in Cherryvale, Kansas.
Questions
I have never been able to find any more information about Mary, James, or her children.
