I am looking for information about Lester Mackbee Boyer of Dodge City, KS.  He also had a sister named Josie. I am his grand daughter, and am just doing family research.  He eventually married a woman named Alice Pounds from Milan, Tennessee.  They eventually moved to Butler County, Kansas in 1928.  They had 1 daugher (my mother) Lesta Berta.  All the parties listed above are deceased now, and I am just kind of interested in the family history and relatives.
