Hi,
The William A.Creamer you are asking about is my great grandfather my grandfather was Jerome P.Creamer my father's name was LeRoy Jerome Creamer.
You are right about William moving to Bourbon
county he settled in a little town outside of Ft.Scott Kansas called Marmanton that is where he died And is buried along with my grandfather in fact I think the whole graveyard is full of my familyI cannot tell you very much about Jerome P.I never met him He died when my father was about 10 or eleven years old my grandmother was his second wife
I believe her name was Grace Hall she and my grandfather got a divorce when my father was about 3 or 4 she moved to Oklahoma where she died when my father was 5 he came back to live with his father. My grandfather had children from his first marriage the only two I can tell you about is two of his sons Bob and Clarance I think there was a girl and another boy Bob and Clarance Live on the west coast I know they both had children the last address I had for them was in Elma Washington I do not know if they are still alive I talked to the wife of Clarance about 10 years ago she sounded old on the phone. When my grandfather died my dad tried to live with both his half brothers but things did not work out his family put him in the Goodlander Home for Boys in Ft.Scott Kansas were he stayed untill he joined the CCCamps from there he enlisted in the army in world war 2There are still a lot of family that live in Ft.Scott.Somewhere I have an old Tintype Photograph of my grandfather Jerome I will try to find it send you a copy by email have any questions get in touch.
Bob
