William J. York, sons William H. York, John W. York, Vernon

In 1880 Osborne County Kansas, William York 46 and Sarah 40 have John W. 17, Hudson 16, Amanda 13, and William 9.

William proved up a quarter in 26, 1S 45W in 1897 - same time as Shadduck and Foreman.  and it's very likely his father is the William J. York timber-claiming a quarter in 10, 2S 45W in 1898 - it would be about six miles away.

John cash-claimed a quarter in 20, 1S 44W in 1890 - so they arrived about the same time, and the claims were just a couple of miles apart.

In 1900 William J. York Dec 1833 Ohio, and Sarah H Nov 1839 Ohio are in Glendale precinct.

William J. and Sarah - THANK YOU JAY YORK

In 1900 Glendale precinct Nora K. York, born Apr 1872 in Illinois, is widowed.  Pearl August 1893 and Lee Oct 1898 both born in Colorado.
