Would like to know if anyone has information about Peter LEWIS or Hannah Eleanor Hill LEWIS who stayed in Golden Valley County with their daughter Lillian (LEWIS) WILHELM around 1910 - 1915. I have the obituary of Peter LEWIS - from Beach but would also like Hannah's obituary if it exists. I don't have Hannah's parents names and hoped it would be in an obituary.
Any other information about this family would be wonderful. Peter and Hannah are my GG Grandparents.
Thanks, Laura

Looking for any info on the following people:
Elizabeth WIEBE, born 1860 in Russia
Elizabeth E.WIEBE, born 1888 in MN
Gerhard F. WIEBE, born 1895 in MN
Katharina STUBBS (STOBBE) born 1858 in Russia

They are at the end of the Lone Valley Township 1910 census; names are transcribed on this site a bit incorrectly; also maybe a Justina WIEBE, born 1890, Helena WIEBE, born 1892 and a Marie WIEBE, born 1889. These women may have married in this county. Marie may have married ______WOOD(S). One of the other 2, Helena or Justina, may have died in this county between 1906-1910. All marriages, if any exist, would be from 1905-1910.

I am researching the Baughman family, the following members of which are listed in the Golden Valley county, ND, BLM Records as follows:
BAUGHMAN David S 160 Acres 05/23/1912
BAUGHMAN David S 160 Acres 01/18/1939
BAUGHMAN Leonard 80 Acres 04/12/1913
BAUGHMAN Leonard 39.03 Acres 01/28/1939

BAUGHMAN Mabelle 160 Acres 11/13/1915
BAUGHMAN Mabelle 160 Acres 11/12/1938

David Seth BAUGHMAN, (1856-1932), m. Nancy Jane WILLIAMSON in Shelby County Iowa. Their son Leonard Loren BAUGHMAN, (1886-1980), m. Mabelle GLAZIER (1890-1973) [listed above as Mabelle BAUGHMAN]. Other GLAZIERs are also listed in the Golden Valley County BLM Records, and I suspect that Mabelle's father was Henry C. GLAZIER, b. 1854 in NY. I have a good deal of info. on the BAUGHMANs and WILLIAMSONs before the move to ND, but not much on the GLAZIERs.
Any information would be greatly appreciated. Barry Robinson
