Research Note: Husband of Johanna (Neal) Bowman. Son of Josiah Bowman and Fanny Dillard. - Cassville Republican, July 7, 1892 - Our thanks are due Elijah Bowman, of south of town, for some excellent raspberries and some dewberries, which he kindly presented us Tuesday. Mr. Bowman can give many small fruit growers pointers on the planting and care of small fruit. He has some of the finest strawberries that we saw this year, as well as raspberries. - May 2, 1908, Saturday, Cassville Democrat - Judge E. M. Bowman Dead - A well spent life was closed and the book of accounts, so far as this life is concerned, closed with it, and Judge Elijah M. Bowman's spirit went to Him, who gave it from his home in McDonald township. Tuesday morning, April 24th, 1908, of a cancer, aged 64 years, surrounded by a loving wife, sons and daughters. The Judge Bowman, we believe, was born in Tennessee, and came to Barry County many years ago and located in Capps Creek township, where he resided until he moved to his late home. In 1902, he was elected County Judge from the Western District, on the Democratic ticket, and served his people well. He leaves a wife, four sons and two daughters to mourn his death. They are Joseph, of Miller, MO; John, Albert, and Claiborn and Miss Leta and Mrs. Ollie Ash of McDonald Township. Judge Bowman was a member of the Fairview Baptist church, 8 miles out on the Springfield road. The remains were laid to rest Tuesday evening in the Maddy Cemetery west of Purdy. Another good citizen is gone to his reward - a family is broken and his neighbors will miss him. The family have our sympathies. Online Newspapers

Research Note: First wife was Amelia. Leopold DeCocq married Amelia Mutrux on Dec. 25, 1890 in Barry Co., MO. His wife at the time of death was Stella. Leopold J. DeCocq, age 47, married Stella Trent, age 35, on Aug. 7, 1912 in Barry Co., MO. Accidental drowning was the cause of death. Son of Benjamin DeCocq and Desiree Blaine, both born France. P. L. (Pierre Leopold, son) DeCocq of Purdy, MO was the informant on the death certificate. - Wheaton Journal, Mar. 21, 1929 - Farmer Drowns in Water Tank: Leopold J. Decocq, a farmer who lived a mile south of Corsicana, was found drowned in a watering tank early Saturday morning, by his wife and son. The coroner, Floyd Callaway was called but after he had made an investigation, he decided that the man had died from natural causes and a coroner's inquest was unnecessary. Decocq, who was about 64 years old, had been complaining of not feeling well for several days. He is believed to have become dizzy and fallen in the tank. Mr. Decocq went to the barns just about daybreak to feed the stock. He was carrying a lantern. Between the two barns is a big watering tank. Instead of going a longer way and opening a gate to get from one barn to the other, Mr. Decocq had been in a habit of walking the edge of the tank. He is supposed to have become dizzy, lost his balance, and fallen in the tank. He had been there only twenty or thirty minutes when he was found, for his wife and son started to find him when he did not come to the house as promptly as they expected. Leopold J. Decocq was born April 19 (should be 20), 1865 in France, came with his parents to the United States in 1875 and departed this life March 16, 1929 at the age of 63 years, 10 months and 26 days. He was united in marriage Dec. 25, 1890 to Amelia Lucie Mutrux. To this union eight children were born, four of whom are living: Pierre L. and Henry A. of Purdy, Mo. (should be south of Corsicana, Mo.), Mrs. Emma Whipple and Louie G. of Forest City, Mo. His wife preceded him in death July 15 (should be 20), 1911. August 7, 1912 he was united in marriage to Stella F. Trent. To this union five children were born, four of them living: Eunice Leah, William Lafay, Flora Fay, and Tressa Elizabeth, all at home. Besides his wife and children he is survived by the following brothers and sisters: Adolph of Rosedale, Ark., Ben H. and Lewis of Little River, Kan., Mrs. Mary Sass, Purdy, Mo., Mrs. Anna Mutrux, Exeter, Mo., and Mrs. Ernest Planchon of Monett, Mo. He also leaves seven grandchildren and other relatives and friends to mourn his departure. He professed his religion early in life and has since lived a devoted life to his family and to his Lord. Funeral services were conducted Monday afternoon March 18 by Rev. Eddie Freeman at the Mt. Joy Church. Internment was made in the Maddy Cemetery under the direction of Pogue's Undertaking, Wheaton. - DeCocq Family Reunion Photo Death Certificate

LONG, Lavina (BELLAH) Aug. 19, 1827 May 30, 1906 Research Note: Lavina Bellah, wife of John Dake Long. Lavina was the third great grandmother of Donna Cooper. Lavina Bellah married John D. Long on July 9, 1846 in Oregon Co., MO. - June 9, 1906, Cassville Democrat - Purdy News: Mrs. Long, mother of Hiram Long, died last week, age 76 years. - Lavina (Bellah) Long, died May 30, 1906, she was the wife of John Dake Long and was buried at Maddy Cemetery. Her stone reads that she was born in August 29, 1827, which would have made her 79 years old and not 76 as the newspaper read. Her husband and his father, Hiram, were killed during the Civil War by bushwhackers. - His estate reads: Page 145, Letters of Administration, Barry Co., MO. George Long, Lenard Long, John D. Long, Simon H. Long, Kizah Long and Samantha Long, minor heirs of J. D. Long, deceased. Bond: $ 200., 30 March 1867, William Cannon, Administrator, William W. Lee and Thomas Smith, bondsmen. It is not known where Hiram and John Dake Long are buried but presumed at Corsicana, because Maddy may not have been a cemetery that early. If it was then they are probably at Maddy. - Footstone - Could be a footstone for Lavina. - Another Photo Online Newspapers

Of course, married 19 years might not be correct and Lavina belong to another of Vina Bellah's sons. Census

LONG, Simon Hiram Dec. 1, 1820 Dec. 21, 1907 SSW: Tabitha - Research Note: Son of Hiram and Anna (Lakey) Long. He married Martha Tabitha James, September 25, 1842 in Ozark Co., Missouri. - Goodspeed's History: Simeon H. Long , a farmer and a stock raiser of Barry County, Mo was born in Greene County, Indiana in 1820, and is the second child of Hiram and Anna (Lakey) Long. Hiram was born in East Tennessee on May 20, 1796, and was reared on a farm. He emigrated from his native state to Indiana, and was there married on Feb 11, 1814. His wife was born in Ohio on March 19, 1798. They became the parents of eleven children, four of whom are living. Hiram Long came with his family to Missouri in 1834, locating in Ripley County. He afterward removed to Barry County where he was brutally murdered in 1862. During the Civil War he tried hard to remain with his family in peace, taking no part then in the contest between the North and the South. A band of Southern men came to his home and made inquiry as to his principles. Upon finding him a Union man they took him and one of his sons out and shot them. After the murder of his father and brother, Simeon H. Long enlisted in the Federal army, joining the Eighth Missouri Cavalry, with which he served three years, being mustered out of service at Little Rock, Ark., on July 20, 1865. He was paid off at St. Louis the following August. On September 25, 1842, he was united in marriage with Tabitha James, who was born in Indiana on March 15, 1826. Eleven children have been born to them, seven of whom, Serilda J., Eliza, George W., Franklin H., Samantha C. (Mrs. James Burtchett), U. S. G. and Dora are living. Their eldest son, S. J. Long served in the Civil War in the same company with his father. He died in the hospital at Bloomfield, Stoddard County, MO, from sickness contracted while in the service. After the war Mr. Long returned to the remainder of his family, whom he had left for security at Springfield, MO, and in February, 1866, came to Barry County, where he has since been engaged in farming. He and his wife are consistent members of the Christian Church and the family are highly respected. He is a Republican, and a member of the G.A.R. - Civil War Record Goodspeed
