Wish to contact both Terry CHEEK and E. Mortimer CHEEK.
Looking for parents of my gr gr grandmother, Julia Catherine CHEEK.
Born 1850 Missouri. Married Oct 13, 1867 in Carthage, Jasper Co., MO to
John Preston PURKHISER. Died 8 May 1886 in Mountainburg, Crawford Co.,
AR. (committed suicide by hanging).
In the 1870 fed census of Jasper County, Sarcoxie & Jackson Townships,
Julia Catherine and husband John were living almost next door to the
Edward W. Cheek family from Long Lane, Dallas Co., MO. Julia
Catherine was only 20 years old at the time and newly married with a one
year old daughter.
In her obituary, it mentions she had family (Cheeks?) in Scotland, MO
(another small town next to Sarcoxie and Jackson) Jasper co. Is there
some connection to both families. I've been searching for 20+ years
with no luck. There must be someone else out there with knowledge of
Julia's family?
Any help greatly appreciated.

Any information on this family would be appreciated.
Thanks, Joyce Page Collins
