I have come across a snag. We are looking for the mother of Mary Jennie (Armstrong) Wood, who was living with the family in Sheridan twp, Frontier County, Nebraska in 1900 FC. Her name was Sara Armstrong, born Penn Sept 1843. Could be that she remarried. Would like to share information.

ANGELINE CARPENTER MAGEE PATRICK
Angeline was my gr. grandmother. She was b. in IL (?) 1840 to 1850. Lived in NE awhile & came to Madison Co., AR. A book I have says she was on the run and married to a man they called "old man Magee". He had honey and jewelry (they think he traded honey for jewelry). He got sick and died in Madison Co., AR, and she married my gr. grandfather, Andrew Jackson "Jack" Patrick. She d. in Madison Co., AR. AR census says her father was from KY and mother from TN. She was very mysterious about her past. She burned a trunk full of papers when her children were old enough to read so they wouldn't know her past. She and Magee had a daughter, Catherine, who was 3 years old in the 1870 AR census making her born around 1867. Since there are Magees in Frontier Co., NE I thought maybe someone would recognize the name. There is an Angeline Carpenter in Harlan Co., NE around 1870-80 that I thought could be a niece, but I am grasping at straws. If anyone has info., I would very much appreciate it.
