PAPER DATED--THURSDAY OCTOBER 4, 1962
OBITUARY--GRANT ARCHER
Grant G Archer, age 71, of Midway City, California passed away September
18, 1962 at Orange Hospital.
Born at Boescheville, Benton County, Mo., Grant had resided in the area
south of Stover most all of his life. He was a member of the First Baptist
Church of Stover. He had lived on the Archer homestead near Zora many years
and was the last resident of the "Old Timers" on Big Buffalo.
About a year ago he moved to California State for his health. The change
did not help him, and he gradually grew worse until the end. He is survived
by his wife, Clara, and one son Kenneth of the home. Also surviving is one
daughter, Lola Lee and a granddaughter, Rosa Lee, of Westminster, Calif.,
two sisters, Mrs Leona Lopp, Huntington Beach, Calif., and Mrs Jessie

The "rootsweb" search engine brought me to your web site. I was looking for
information regarding my grandmother, Jessie Archer Stussy - who was mentioned
in an obituary under your "Archer Queries" link (Obit of Grant Archer). I was
wondering if there's any other information around. I took a look at the
majority of your other links but didn't see anything.
I already have complete information about my grandmother herself, but the
information I have regarding her family from my family records is practically
non-existent (except for her mother's death date). My uncle may have some
information, but he and I live in different states. I am due to visit him in
a month to compare notes.

Hi Dee,
If you asked me before I don't remember. But if I don't write it down I have
a tentancy to forget.
My Mathews is Elizabeth Mathews born 7 July 1748 in Augusta Co VA. She was
the daughter of John Mathews from County Tyrone,Ireland and Betsy Anne
Archer. She married Joseph Titus 6 April 1774 in Botetourt Co VA. She died
around 1830-1840 in Howard Co Mo.
My Campbells are Squire Boone Campbell and Emeline Taylors. Most of them are
the Morgan/Benton Co MO area. I haven't found any Nicholas's in my Campbell
line yet and most of the Mary's are accounted for and haven't found any
married to Mathews.

Pardon me if I have asked you before. I search on MATTHEWS.
Arthur Matthews b. 1804 in TN (Hawkins Co, perhaps). Moved to
ALABAMA, then came to MO in about 1840, settling first in Greene
Co, MO and then in St Clair and Benton Co. MO. Killed in 1862 by
Bushwhackers during the Civil War. Wife was Mary LOONEY;
however, 1850 Benton Co. MO census lists her as Mary Campbell.
We can't figure out where the Campbell came from unless the census
taker made a mistake because the people in front of the Matthews
family was the Nicholas Campbell family! I don't believe Mary
could have been previously married because of the approximate
dates of brith of the children, etc. None of them have Campbell as
a last name. Dee Mathews, Independence MO.

Thank You so much, Bev...
My husband's grandfather was a John Porter Cummings. I have heard (and
the stories are many) that part of the family changed their name to
Cummings during the Civil War to distance themselves from those of their
own who were not of their opinion.
There is a lady in OR that has submitted a pedigree on the Ancestral
File at the LDS FHC that has a John Porter Cummins (parents from NC) -
with a chart that goes back to 1675...to Ireland - then Prussia. I do
not know if it's the John Porter that I am searching for. Right now,
I'm trying to sort out the fact from fiction. We had always heard that
Grandpa JP's mother died when he was little - and that he went to live
with some relatives. Last summer, I spent some time in a delightful
little museum/record repository in Richmond that had the census records
- all indexed and made neat & readable by members of DAR - I found a
John Porter Cummings that fit the family stories - living with a family
on the 1860 & 1870 census. By the looks of the other members of the
family, it appeared that he was not one of the biological siblings. He
was born - according to our family records, Sept 1854. He became a
school teacher - married Barcena Rose of Starfield, MO. They had 3
children - Victor, Alonzo & Grace Alene, who was my husband's mother.
I have found him in the 1880 census - teaching school in Platte Co. -
then later they moved down to Johnson Co. From there they moved to St.
Joe - where he decided to become a Dr. and went to Ensworth Hospital
Medical School (long gone) I found him there on the 1900 census as a
student. There it said that he was born in MO, but that his parents
were from Maine. But his birth date was incorrect - so someone else may
have made the entry... Census reports can contain errors for that
reason. However, the family that he lived with as a child were from NC
- where the census shows that most of the Cummings came from. I have
the record of his graduation from med. school in 1901. He worked as a
pharmacist after graduating. The NW Mo. Historical Soc. in St. Joe has
no record of him - or of Ensworth Hosp.
We have always heard that his mother's maiden name was Grace... and
that was why he named his daughter Grace. But that may just be a nicey
story. According to the records from the lady in OR, he was the
youngest child of 4 - of John & Elizabeth Allen Cummings. She was in
possession of old family bibles - and also, read books that have been
published on settlers of Clay, Ray - and other counties there. There is
a chance that there was more than one John Porter Cummings...as families
many times reused names. She did not have an exact birth date on her
John Porter, but said about 1855 - so that made it very possible that
indeed it was Grandpa.
I would like to spend some more time in that area and do some more
research. What MO lacks in gov. records - they make up for in all the
inspired people who have written and preserved family histories.
What's this you say about short notes??? Lois in NJ

Subject: ARCHER, Elisha>VA>TN>MO
Am looking for descendants of Elisha Archer and wife, Ann. They had children
William, m. Abigail OLIVER; James Madison, m. Lucinda Jane OLIVER; Frances,
m. John OLIVER; Moses; Elias/Eliab Thomas; Sarah A., m. Narhan T.
Robertson/Robinson; Jane, m. Solomon Rothanbarger(and various other
spellings).
Elisha bought land in Callaway Co., MO in 1832, but died there in 1834. Ann
and children moved to Taney Co. after some of the older children had married.
Olivers turned up in Taney Co., also. By 1850 Ann Archer, Moses, Elias T.
and William were in Jasper Co. William was a widower with several children.
Have determined that Jane and Solomon are buried in Jasper Co., MO, but can't
find out where the rest went.
The Olivers that the Archers married were siblings and children of James and
Rachel HOLMAN OLIVER who came from Nicholas Co., KY via IN where some of
their younger children were born, including Lucinda. In Nicholas Co., KY
there was a land transaction with Sampson Archer listed as a witness. Would
like to know more about Sampson and whether he was related to Elisha, the
father of this group.
I descend from James Madison Archer and Lucinda Jane Oliver who came to Texas
around 1852 settling in Tarrant Co., TX. Others of the Oliver clan also
came, but have been unable to establish that any of the siblings of James
came. On the 1850 Taney Co., MO census James lists his birth place as TN,
and that of his father Elisha Archer as VA. Finding the location in TN and
VA has been my brick wall with the ARCHERS.
Will appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Ida
