McGee Families from Kansas

Kansas


My connection with Beebe's  is like this:
Helen Beebe  b. 1839 ?  d. 5/1/1866 Parsons LaBetteCo. Kansas. she married John N. Thompson (my family line)
their children were  Edwin b.1836  Orlando b.1844  and Samuel C. b. 1847  ? in Kansas  We're not sure.
Helen's  parents were  Willam A. Nichols and Currence Beebe, now Wm. A was her  2nd husband.  I do believe they origniated in N.Y. but many I found in the mid west. I will be glad to work with you if this is your line.

David & Linda, Sure wish I could help --- I have been searching for information on my grandfather, Rolland Fitzroy Pruitt for 35 years!    Have never been able to connect the dots.  He was born in Tenn (we think) in 1884 mother was Lydia Hufft/Huff born in Va (per a 1920 census he  filled out) nothing on his Dad!   They story was that there was 13 children parents died and the children were given to other family members or other families in the community!  
        He just doesn't show up anyplace until 1913 when he gets my Grandmother, Fleda Mae Brock p.g. in Jewell County, Kansas!  The Brock's were big land owners and could have been with the some type of crew that came thru that area --- first son was born in Oct 1913 ----
    Sure hope someone can help you.   Sincerely Diane McVey Nuss

I need your help. I orginally started doing genealogy because my mom wanted to who something about her father's side of the family. We were just told my mom only has about three weeks before she dies and time is running out on my being able to tell her a whole lot about our Pruitt Line.

The following is what I have been able to prove.

I am trying to find James William PRUITT born abt 1855 in Tx.
He married Rachel Elizabeth [RAMSEY] 18 Feb 1886 in VanZandt Co, Texas. James died in a sawmill accident on 19 Oct 1918 Miller Co Ar.
I have been unable to locate him on a census before 1900 and thus have no clue as to his parents or siblings. In 1900 he said his father was born Missiiissippi but in 1910, however, he said his father was born in Tennessee.....This is James' family is in the 1900 and 1910 and my great-grandmother on the 1920 censuses below:
