Events
Census

The U.S. censuses for 1900 through 1920 for her two sons have varying places of her birth. 1900 has Missouri. 1910 has Ireland. 1920 has U.S. 1930 has Tennessee. 1940 does not specify.

: 1887-11-20, Age:17y 3m 1d, Springfield, Greene county, Missouri, St. Pauls Methodist Church, Role:bride, Newspaper announcement in the Springfield Daily Leader newspaper issue of Nov.24, 1887 in Springfield, Greene county, Missouri of the wedding on Nov.20, 1887 of Robert C. Deaton and Addie Buhr that happened. The article said both were residents of Springfield at the time and were married by Elder B.F. Poole of the Methodist Church. Because both Robert and Adeline were under the legal age to be married in Missouri as adults, both had to have consent from a legal guardian. For Robert, his father William gave approval. For Adeline, whose parents were deceased, her older sister and legal guardian, Tillie Hook, gave approval. Newspaper announcement in the Springfield Daily Leader newspaper issue of Nov.24, 1887 in Springfield, Greene county, Missouri of the wedding on Nov.20, 1887 of Robert C. Deaton and Addie Buhr that happened. The article said both were residents of Springfield at the time and were married by Elder B.F. Poole of the Methodist Church. The wedding announcement of Addie Buhr and Robert Deaton was in the 24 Nov. 1887 newspaper of Springfield, Missouri. Addie died before her 23rd birthday and had two children by then. Per County Clerk of Greene County, Missouri Marriage Records Book H page 331, Robert and Addie had to get permission to marry since he was under age 21 and she was under age 18.

Death
: 1893-06-14, Age:22y 9m 26d, Springfield, Greene county, Missouri, She died a year and a day after giving birth to her second child. It is a mystery how Addie and Robert were married in 1887 in Springfield, had two children born in Memphis -- 1889 and 1892 -- then she was buried (and presumably died) in Springfield in 1893. Were they visiting Springfield family in 1893? Uncertain which town and state Addie died since an obituary or death record have yet to be found in either Greene county Missouri or Shelby county Tennessee.
Missouri started recording deaths in 1910. There was a brief period before that when counties could optionally record births and deaths. However, no one with the last name of Deaton is found in that small database (see it at https://s1.sos.mo.gov/records/archives/archivesdb/birthdeath/default.aspx).
Burial
: 1893-06-14, Age:22y 9m 26d, Springfield, Greene county, Missouri, Bellview Cemetery, section A row 15, The Bellview Cemetery in which Addie was buried is a Baptist Cemetery. It is located in the Franklin township which is in the northwest part of Greene County. Go north of I-44 on Glenstone Street (aka. Hwy H) about a mile until you get to Farm Road 88. Then go east/right on 88 until it turns left/north onto road 169. When you get to farm road 84 you will see The Crossing Church on the left and the cemetery on the right. The section nearest the main cemetery sign is section A. Count back (east) 15 rows then walk north about 80% of the way towards the road there. Addie's plot is sitting all by itself with no visible tombstone within 20 feet of her. The marker top comes to a point. A fancy tombstone for the Ropers is just northeast of Addie.

General

One family record on Ancestry.com for Adeline "Addie" (Buhr) Deaton lists her two sons with the second one being born in Mississippi, a new location for Adeline. · · Ancestry.com family for Adeline 'Addie' (Buhr) Deaton, it does list her two sons with the second one being born in Mississippi. · · Ancestry.com family for Adeline 'Addie' (Buhr) Deaton, it does not list her two children. · · Ancestry.com family of William D. (or Dieterich Wilhelm) Buhr. He and his family went from Washington county Illinois to Pike county Arkansas to Greene county Missouri where he died before his 43rd birthday. He was first married to Martha Ragland (the ancestor) then to Nora T. Danley and had children with both wives. His ancestral child was Adeline Buhr who married Robert Deaton.

For about 40 years this author was led by family members to believe that her last name was BUIE and that she likely came to the U.S. from the Netherlands. However, after encountering the newspaper article of her wedding in Springfield, that lead to new research and the discovery that her last name is BUHR. There is much information about that family line. · The Greene County office reports that no death certificates before 1910 are on file.
