My father, b. 1909, said he used to visit his grandparents there. I have been there once a few years ago. Now I am on a quest to find out which grandparents lived there. The names of 2 possible families are: Jeremiah M Baker (a Civil War veteran), and Francis Marion and Sarah Howe. It is possibly Baugh, though the first two are the most likely. My great grandfather Jeremiah had a sawmill in Liberty. He married Emily Baugh of Highland. On the census records, places are identified by district, so it is difficult for me to figure out what district Chicken Bristle is in. If anyone can help shed some light on this for me , I would appreciate it.
