BRICKEY,  MARY
Record Type: MARRIAGE INDEX C
County:BENTON     State:AR
Miscellaneous: BOOK C PAGE 95-AGE 21-ON 9-10-1887-TO: CUNNINGHAM, JOE AGE 23

 

Death Record:  I have a copy of her death record.  It doesn't list her parents' names.

 

I wonder when and where Mary's father, John M. Brickey died.  I wonder why they were in Kansas when Mary and her sister Sarah were born in 1863 and 1865.  Maybe because of the Civil War.

See a picture of Mary's brother John Resdan Brickey on his page.

See the Lost Cousins page for Brickeys that I don't know how they are related.

1860 Census: See Mary's parents' pages for where they lived before Mary was born.  John Brickey and Susan Burgess's families lived very near each other in 1850 and 1860.
