I am trying to broaden a family history for my wife. We have her great grandmother as Stella Boyer with parents E.A. and Elviera, both born in Illinois. Stella was born in Illinois in 1874. It appears that they may have had a son called "Dutch"
Stella and Benjamin Franklin Coombs were married in Parker Kansas, Feb 16, 1898. They had three children: Viola, Benjamin Franklin Jr., and Ruth.
I've been trying the FamilySearch.org, and general searches.
