Rachel McGuire Horton Tazewell VA-MO-Pawnee OK d.1920
Greetings,
I have been following a thread on my McGuire line that has me quite vexed and thought someone might have some clues.
Rachel McGuire's brother Harvey Wesley McGuire who married Martha Vandyke had a son Thomas Marion McGuire who married a Margaret Horton in Audrain MO 1882. She may have been his first cousin, and a daughter of Rhodah Horton. This family is found on the 1900 Loutre Audrain MO census with children Marion, Mollie and Floyd. To add confusion, I find Rachel Horton listed as mother in law in the house of James M. McGuire, wife Maggie [Horton] McGuire, and daughter Gladney McGuire. This James M. and Thomas Marion MIGHT be the same person as their ages are within one year, and the earlier census data in Harvey Wesley's family only show a Thomas M.
Gladney McGuire is certainly a unique name and it shows up as a daughter and son on various census.
I also found the burial of Gladney Horton McGuire 1902-1977 in Ottawa OK. Gladney was born in NM(!) and is found on the 1910 Roosevelt NM census showing a mother named Margaret born KY.
Anyway, there is some confusion here, but I am convinced they are our people. If you have access to Ancestry.com census, check it out. The link for the gravesite is
