      Notes 
      • Lizzie Puckett's second husband was Herbert McElroy. She also
      • raised Leta who was Herbert's brother's granddaughter.
      • Lizzie had a small general merchantile store (candy,clothing,cloth, etc.) in Bartley. Herbert had a cobbler shop on the back of the property. Lizzie, Herbert and Leta lived at the back of the Merchantile store.
      • Lizzie was very active in the Methodist Church. She was Dad's (Rex Lewis) sunday school teacher when he lived in Bartley with his dad and he still has the small bible she gave him.
      • Lizzie and Herbert moved to Lincoln and the Wolfe's lost touch with Leta until Leta got back in touch with Mildred and Ina in 1995.
      • My father, Rex Lewis, remembers Lizzie from when she was his Sunday School teacher. He is 85 and still has the little New Testament that she gave him. She must have made a big impression on him since he has been agnostic for at least the last 40 years. - Rebecca Lewis

      Family 1 Charles S. RAWSON,   b. About 1858, Illinois Find all individuals with events at this location,   d. 03 Feb 1922  (Age ~ 64 years) 
      Notes 
      • In the 1910 census Frank Garret Rawson is listed as Charles's adopted son. I suspect that the boy's name was Frank Garrett and that the his parents were related to Charles. There were some Garrett families living in Hamilton Co, Nebraska who were from Illinois, where Charles came from.
