I am looking for any information on a Lovie Axford, believed to be from Wyoming and believed to have married a certain Julian Utter. She would be my great grandmother if the above is correct. Julian had two wives. No idea what ever became of Lovie (wife number one). Any information is appreciated.

Hi Nick, just thought that I'd respond to your search for your g-grandmother Lovie. Lovie was my g-Aunt, her sister being my grandmother. She was born in Nebraska in April, 1885. Now the info gets very very sketchy. She married Julian Utter (date unknown) and I believe was his first wife. It is my understanding (from my Mom in some notes) that Lovie died in a car wreck in the Chugwater, WY area at a very young age. A friend (who is an Utter) thinks that they had one child before she died (your grandfather????). Lovie was the daughter of Alfred and Catherine Axford who lived in the Chugwater/Wheatland area of Wyoming.

If you would like, you can provide me with some information, where this other researcher can connect with you, and I'll pass it on.

Good hunting,
Duke

Thank you very much for the information. My grandmother had recalled her name was Arlene, Arlena, (or something similar). I saw "Lovie" on very well compiled Utter family tree--which is where I got it. We know absolutely nothing about this line. Julian remarried and had other children. My grandfather left home early and I don't think ever had much contact with the Axford family after her death. I would be interested in details regarding both her and her parents. I can be reached at "lawyer@nickutterlaw.com" Thanks again for posting.

Happy to be of service. I will soon get my desktop back from the repair shop (has my genealogy files on it). I've got quite a bit of information on the Axford line and will be pleased to assist where I can. As far as Lovie is concerned, what I provided is about all I'll be able to do.

Additional surnames from whom you are descended include: Axford, Raimer, Dunlap, and a couple others that I can't remember right now.

More L8r,

adrees is the same so srry about your computer duke
