Hi, again--
Elizabeth Barbara Anne Sears (she usually went by Barbara Anne) was born on the date you have. I do not know the marriage date, but she married Francis Marrion Cuppy "in the East" (meaning anywhere east of Montana). Francis was born in 1840 and died in 1897, or near to those dates. I have not been able to learn more than that about Francis. Barbara Anne died 15 March 1919 at Cjolumbus, Stillwater, Montana, and was buried 16 Mar 1919 at Stillwater. I have the death certificate. They had six children: May, Christy Anne (25 Dec 1875)Yankton, SD, Lillie Getteth (11 Feb 1881)Germantown, CA, Clara, Carie, and Dora. I have no history on Lillie Getteth's name. I have not come across it before. Getteth is an unusual name--may be spelled wrong, too.

May's married name was May Berry. Christy married James A. Roberts in 1900. She died 6 Dec 1956 at Clatskanie, Columbia, OR. Lillie married Charles Clyde Lindsey in 1898; she died 1 Sept 1960 at Redding, Shasta, CA. I have no information on the others.

I do not know what became of Francis Cuppy, but Barbara Anne married Dr. Grant Rose, and they had two children, Bertie and Frank. Frank was born about 1878.

Take care. Anne
