I have been tracing the
family of my great-great-aunt Ida Mae (Weaver) Cloe. Ida married Abraham
Lincoln Cloe December 23, 1883, in Marion County, Iowa. Ida was the sister of
my great-grandfather, James Baird "Jay" Weaver.
Ida Mae (Weaver) Cloe, Phebe (Linnens) Weaver, and Anna (Weaver) Gamble.
Phebe and John Weaver had 12 children, but only two daughters
(Ida and Anna) who lived into adulthood.
