Yinks/Yingst researchers:
Please check your information for John Yinks/Yingst born in PA about 1823, living in Missouri in 1850. I need to know the maiden name of his Missouri born wife Elizabeth.
The 1850 census in Andrews County Missouri:
John Yinks, 27 born PA, Farmer.
Wife Elizabeth, 21 born MO
Hannah E. - 4 born MO
Katherine - 2 born MO
Martha E. - 11 months born MO
December 1851 in Andrews County Missouri, Elizabeth Yingst married John M. Baker.
John Yinks/Yingst must have either died or they divorced.
The 1860 census for Boone County Missouri:
Allen Baker 34 born NY
Wife Elizabeth 32 born MO
Hannah E. 15 born MO
Catherine 14 born MO
Martha C 10 born MO
Jeanette 7 born MO
William H. 4 born MO
John M. 3 born MO
Can anyone researching the Yinks/Yingst family tell me the maiden name of John Yinks wife Elizabeth? They were probably married prior to the 1845 birth of Hannah, their oldest child.
Thanks
Jean
