The Anderson Family
Front row: John Miller Anderson (born 1840 in Shelby County, MO), his wife
Ratoria Crawford (born in 1847 in Green Bay Bottom, Iowa, and Lorena Olive Anderson.
Maude Anderson is in the back row, far right (born Sept. 1873 in MO). She married
William Jordon Boone in 1901. She died young, August 17, 1904, in Sedalia, Missouri,
leaving her husband and small child, Leon Boone.
The others are most probably her sisters, but I'm not positive which is which.
The following is the descendant report of John's grandfather, William Anderson:
