General Source: S16Text: This is the information Thelma ask me for, about the Laub family, which is from the senior Laub Family record, which my mother had. Grandfather Laub was born in Germany, I do not remember where, or what his first name was. Grandmother was Nancy Kelley, I do not know where she was born. The children were the following, in the order of their birth: Elmer, birth and death was the same, Christopher, who was Ada's father, Mary, Barbara, Nancy, George, Sarah, Martha, my mother.
I do not remember the dates, but I am trying to locate the record which my sister had when my mother died in 1929. I do not know when grandfather died, and Ada did not remember ever seeing him. The family home was in Liberty, Clay County, Missouri. Later the entire family, except the two oldest girls, moved to Drywood Twp, near Fort Scott, Kansas.
About 1878, they all came to Leadville, Colorado, where they lived for several years. They moved to Salida, Colorado and a short time later moved to Poncha Springs, Colorado. Uncle Chris and his children moved to Villa Grove, where he died about 1895.
The first husband of Ada's mother was named Freeborn. I never knew his first name he died about the time of the Civil War, I do not think he was in the Army. There were two small children, Maggie (perhaps Margaret) and Johnny, who died when a small boy, and is buried at Poncha Springs. Uncle Chris's wife died while they lived in Leadville, and is buried there. Grandmother lived around with her children and died at my mothers in 1888.
Ada and Lottie were both married in Villa Grove, but I do not know the dates. I do not know when Crik was married as it was before I was born, she had a boy Albert born in October 1888, who died when he was seventeen.
George was married in Leadville in 1898. Albert was married in Salida about 1901, Ida can tell you the exact date, he died in Denver, Madeline should be able to tell you when. Criks name was Sadie, and was sometimes Sarah. Lottie was Charlotte. I am Ada's first cousin. My mother was Martha, Uncle Chris's youngest sister. As far as I know lottie and I are the last of the family. I am sorry I can not give you more information, and hope this will help.

Text: . . . James inherited the home from his father which he afterwards sold, and removed with his family and son-in-law, George Strother (my great-grandfather) to Kentucky. They started in May, 1797, and voyaged on a flat boat from Redstone Old fort on the Youghiogheny River and landed at Limestone, Kentucky after a tedious and perilous journey. Their first home was near Paris in Bourbon county, Kentucky, where they remained six years. George and Mary Duncan Strother (my great-grandparents ) removed to Gallatin County, now Trimble County, and settled near Corn Creek in 1802. Rev. George Strother built a school house on his farm, and we find James Duncan teaching at "Strother's School house." (from a letter from Mr. A.P. Strother to Mrs. Dale Thompson).
