CROSS, EARP, FORD, MORGAN, SENSIBLE, WINFREY posted by Jackie Woodward on Monday, August 31, 1998: I am looking for any information for any of these families. The families all had a connection in Saline county. William (Bill) Jasper FORD was married to Will Ann EARP on May 24, 1885 . Will Ann EARP was (born in Carroll County, Missouri, on November 23, 1863) Will was married to Bill at Grand Pass Baptist Church. Bill, we think, had four brothers and one sister. The brothers names were John, Luther, Jim and Jess Ford. His sister's name was Frances and she married George SENSIBLE. Will Ann's father's name was Will EARP and her mother was Mary R. WINFREY. Will died six months before she was born. We believe that Will Ann had a child by a previous marriage and we believe his last name was MORGAN? . She had a child from this marriage, his name was Joseph Franklin. We believe he took the FORD name when he started school. He had several other siblings, six sisters and four brothers. The sons were named Joe, Lee, Cleveland, and John. One daughter was married to Charlie CROSS. I do not have names for the other sisters. These families lived most of their lives in Grand Pass, Saline County, Missouri. Any information on these families would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
