My grandfather was Monroe Permenter the son of George Permenter and we have reason to believe George was the son of James and Lucinda Permenter who was in Missouri and eventually in Oklahoma. James and Lucinda's census lists Martin, Silas, Lewis, John, and Mary which is George's brother and sisters names. John was kidnapped as a small lad and George, my grandfather was given to the Kelly's that is why I do not know much about them at this time but the Permenters is where I am starting my focus. Old tales in the family are that James and Lucinda died in a house fire in maybe? Pemiscott Missouri, I am unsure of the name of the town. However, following James and Lucinda's children I found John and Mary (Permenter) listed as Phillips at one time. I have often wondered if these children where from different marriages perhaps on Lucinda Rotton's part and I have wondered why Grandpa was given to the Kelly's. They were wealthy and could provide well for my grandfather and John Phillips or Permenter we were told was kidnapped but as I research my family I was told by my grandpa's sister that serveral years back John called from Montross? South Dakota and said he was given to a traveling preacher and that he always knew about where the family was. By this time he has long since passed and I do not know what name he carried and therefore, do not know how to contact his family. Unfortunately, I let my great great aunt pass away without asking her if he mentioned it in his conversations. Maybe its the same James because the census lists him from Tennessee and maybe these clues that I have will benefit.thanks:Lisa
