• Notes

  [Girten, Charles, 1819.FTW] John Melton probably is the brother nicknamed "Milty." Baptismal records, St. Vincent, 1897-1899 and St Agnes 1869-1878, includes a note that John Melton Girten, son of Valentine A. Girten and Francis shanks married Susanna (F?) _urstel in Kansas city, Kansa on June 16, 1914 signed by James M. Martin. Marilyn Broshears notes that she thinks it is a Furstel as it is a name in Union county and she can't think of another first letter for that name unless it might have more than one letter, but appears to be one letter.
