Hi All! I'm looking for information about Lemuel Didymus Close and his parents. They come from Missouri. Census records place them in Iron County. Lemuel was born 20 Dec 1881, location unknown. He married Gracie May Clay on 21 Oct 1909. Died in a mining accident 20 Feb 1920. Lemuel's parents were known to his daughter as Lewis and Evaline. I've since learned that her full name was Nancy Evelyn Henry. She was born Jul 1852, location unknown. The 1880 census records indicate that her husband went by the name William Close at that time (perhaps either his first or middle name). He died before 25 Jul 1898, location unknown--probably Ironton, MO. The 1880 census also indicates that his father came from Prussia. I've been able to uncover quite a bit about the Henry side of this family, but the Close side remains a great mystery. Thank you very much to anyone who might be able to help.
