Sometimes when one is deep in the trenches or down the slippery slopes of family research we trip upon something far out and fun.  I never research looking for these types of connections, but, if I stumble upon them, I sure do enjoy snooping around.  Sometimes I even learn a part of history that I just did not know.  That's the fun part.  

So, with some use of some cut up charts, shall we see if I can do this??  The line jigs and jags and no, there is no direct blood line.  Just fun.  

First chart, lower left, Arthur Norman Stevens, Jr. to his parents Archibald and Edna May Fenton.

Archibald to his parents, William Henry and Letta Amerila Clifford.

William Henry to his parents, William N and Laura "Jane" Oakley.

William N to his parents Richard and Ann Newcombe.

Next we look at Richard and Ann and two of their sons, William and James Noah.  (Other children of Richard and Ann not included.)

Note that James Noah marries one Mary Louisa Lush.

Jumping to the Lush lineages, we see Mary and her parents Hiram Cooper Lush and Hannah Jame Thompson.  We also see one of her siblings, Augustus Eugene Lush and his bride Lillian Polly Butler.

Now, we look at Lillian Polly Butler and her family story.  This chart shows Lillian and her parents Stephen Kinsley Butler and Caroline Towne, AND, Lillian's grandparents, James Benjamin Butler and Eunice "Unis" Kinsley.  

We also note Stephen has a sister, Pamelia "Polly" Bulter, who is the wife of William Alonzo Hickok.  Polly is also the mother of one, James Butler "Wild Bill" Hickock.

So, Arthur Stevens to Archibald Lashbrook Stevens to Wallace Lashbrook to William Lashbrook to Richard Lashbrook to James Noah Lashbrook, to Mary Louise Lush to Hiram Lush to Augustus Eugene Lush to Lillian Polly Butler to Stephen Kinsley Butler to James Benjamin Butler to Pamelia "Polly" Butler to James "Wild Bill" Hickok.

Did it in 4 images and 14 jumps.
