Dinah, wife of H. Gregory was born December 2, 1842 and died May 14, 1889. She was buried at Beckmon Cemetery - a deserted cemetery located 3 miles west and one mile south of Moundville. Wanda Northrop tells that Dinah Gregory was the wife of Henderson Gregory and the daughter of Robert Beckmon and his wife Minerva Kemp. Wanda is looking for birth, death or marriage for a Charles Gregory, Eva Gregory, Minerva Gregory. James Foster Gregory married a Nellie B. and he died in Barton Co., MO. Their other known child was Betty Elizabeth Roselle Gregory and she married Earnest Wayne Weaver in Moundville, Vernon, MO Mar 19, 1905. Wanda tells that she believes Henderson and Dinah had 5 children. James Foster Gregory from Vernon County gave information on his father's death certificate. Plus James Foster's death certificate lists them as his parents. Wanda doesn't think that any of these are in her family except Henderson Gregory and his children. He was in Scott County, IL before he went to Vernon Co., MO and that is where her gggrandfather Gregory lived and is buried. Wanda's research interest is Henderson Gregory. Apparently his father's name was Henry and mother Nancy but she can find no information on them. |
