Mary,
Thanks again for your research on my GG Grandfather James Dexter Moomey. We had been trying for years to find out the maiden name of his first wife, and the marriage record you found from the LDS Microfiche said he married Hannah L. Weber in Montgomery County, KS on April 18, 1892. She was 17 years old when she married James. I am convinced the info you found is correct. One thing I might mention is that on some of the census I found for them, it states she was married twice. So, according to that info she was married once before she married my GG Grandfather. I have did some research on my own, and before your email I have thought her maiden name was "Benear". There was a Hannah Benear that lived in the Bartlesville area, and was born in the same year as my GG Grandmother. Hannah Benear did have a sister who married a man by the last name of Weber or Webber. And Im wandering if the Hannah Weber you found was her previous marriage last name and not her maiden name. Hannah was 17 when she married my GG Grandfather and I was wandering if you get a chance if you could check that LDS Microfiche for Montgomery County marriages before
1892 and see if there is a marriage between a man by the last name of Weber and Hannah Benear. If you are too busy, I understand. I appreciate your assistance.
