Re: Uriah McQueen and Elizabeth Tanner

Russ,

Elizabeth McQueen, born July 20, 1828 in Indiana and died November 23, 1910 in Adair, Camden County, MO and was buried on November 24, 1910 in Climax Springs, Camden County, MO in Edison Cemetery on the Green's farm.However, I talked to the Green family (in their late 70's then) said they don't recall any Tresenriter's in the cemetery, but they could be.I tried to find their farm (their neice is living on the property) but I could not follow their woodsy directions.Anyway, Elizabeth married January 8, 1846 in Harrison County, Indiana to my gggrandfather, Henry Tresenriter, born May 3, 1825 in Indiana and died January 17, 1917 in Adair, MO and buried January 18, 1917 in Edison Cemetery.I know that Elizabeth McQueen's father was a Uriah McQueen, but have no proof that the Uriah McQueen that married Elizabeth Tanner are her parents.Do you have such proof?Also, Henry's brother, Samuel Tresenriter, born April 26, 1819 in Indiana and died January 25, 1886 in Georgetown, Floyd County, Indiana and buried in the Wolfe Cemetery married on May 7, 1840 in Bartholomew County, Indiana to a Catherine McQueen, born November 26, 1822 in (Ohio? Census)and died April 7, 1885 in Georgetown, Indiana and buried in Wolfe Cemetery.This rises another question, the date of birth you have for Elizabeth's sister, Catherine, is 1831, so is she the one that married Samuel Tresenriter?Also, Henry and Elizabeth McQueen Tresenriter had a daughter, Catherine Elizabeth Tresenriter, born March 20, 1848 in Indiana and died December 29, 1935 in Camden County and buried on December 30, 1935 in Barnumton, Camden County, Missouri, in Mission Point Cemetery.She married on April 20, 1871 in Newman, Douglas County, Illinois at the Methodist Episcopal Church to John W. McQueen, born April 03, 1848 and died March 12, 1881.Do you have any information on this John McQueen?In case your were wondering which child of Henry's I was related to, it is Emanuel, their youngest.Any help would be appreciated.Thanks.
