Surnames: FERGUSON and FRISBIE

I have a dead-end on a FERGUSON in my ancestry: Drusilla FERGUSON, married Clytus Alonzo FRISBIE in NY ca. 1835-36. Drusilla, according to later censuses, was born in NY ca. 1820, making her young at the time of marriage. They immediately left NY for Iowa in 1836-37, and then to Missouri 1844-47. I have her maiden name from the marriage records of one daughter. Clytus lived in Harpersfield, Delaware Co., NY, though he had been born in CT. There are also some veiled family documents concerning Drusilla having lived in Montgomery Co., NY. I suspect that the marriage was not viewed nicely by one or both families, hence the departure into the undeveloped Iowa area of Keokuk Co. (not the city Keokuk). I know nothing else about Drusilla's background, though I have a good listing of her descendants.

Surnames: FERGUSON and FRENTRESS

I am trying to find information about my granfather, Thaddeus FERGUSON. He disappeared from the Manchester or Dyersville area of Delaware County, Iowa somewhere around 1919. My father's name was Doriss A. FERGUSON, born in 1917 to Thaddeus FERGUSON and Edith (FRENTRESS) FERGUSON. I'm sorry I don't have much additional information.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Surname: FERGUSON

I'm very new to this process but would like to find out more about my grandfather and grandmother and their line. My limited knowledge of grandad and grandmother, Miles Henry FERGUSON and Kathyn FERGUSON, was that they lived in Morgan Co. KY. I believe grandmother's maiden name was also FERGUSON. They had 8 children, at least four(possibly more) of which were born in Morgan Co.; my fathe William Henry (DOB 11/20/94), Luther, Lester, Elizabeth, James R., Nettie, Marvin and Ann. They moved to the Springfield, IL area (probably Williamsville) possibly in the early 1900s. Dad moved to Iowa (Tama County/Black Hawk Co.) in the 1915-1916 era and married Mom on February 14, 1917.

Any information will be geatly appreciated.
