James,
Do you have listings for Sunset Valley Cemetery? Nancy L. Parr, daughter of
Paul and Mary, married Samuel Wesley and is said to have been buried at
Sunset Valley. Samuel and Nancy Wesley's children were:
Ollie b. Jul 1872 m.19 Nov 1899 Spencer, Jacob J. Zinser
Minnie b. abt. 1874 m. 21 Jul 1889 Spencer, Reed Creasy
Lizzie b. abt. 1876
Unknown Male b. 30 Apr 1886 Spencer
I'm also trying to locate Paul's daughter Mary Frances. Her first husband
was Elias Lanham, who died 20 Oct 1892, bur. uknown. She married again, in
Warrick, but we don't know who to!! Here is the marriage info:
County: Warrick
Name: Mary F Lanham
Father: Paul Parr
Mother: Mary Hill
Gender: F
Age: 41
Marriage Date: 12 Nov 1894
Book: H-25
Original Source Page: 31
We have Elias' Civil War Pension info, and from that we believe that Mary F.
married a Massie, but there are just too many Massie's to know which one.
Here is the pension info:
Civil War Pension:
Elias Lanham
State Filed: Indiana
Widow: Mary F. Lanham Relative:
Minor: Comments: Mary F. Massie, Gdn. <Guardian>
Date filed: 27 Feb 1875 - Invalid- Application #: 201.038 Certificate #:

Date Filed: 7 Apr 1896 - Minor - Application #: 631484 Certificate #:

Again, any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!
