Veach; Poston, Conner
Looking for info on Mildred Veach whose parents, Elisha and Elisabeth (Betty) Conner
Veach were in the 1850 Greene County Census. Their children
at that time, Joseph C., John Thomas, and Sarah Elizabeth Mary
Francis Veach, are also listed in the 1850 census. An advertisement in
the
Springfield Advertiser in 1845, says that Elisha Veach has mail
to be picked up, so they were in Greene County at least by 1845.
They were in the 1860 Morgan County, MO Census, the 1870 census
of Denton, County, TX, and some of the children were in the 1900
and 1910 Greer County, OK. I would love to hear from somone in
regard to the Veach family. After Elisha Veach went to the gold mines,
Betty
married C. M. Poston. There were Postons in the 1850 Green County
Census
but I do not know if it is the same family.
