Who is Bud Broadwater?

I have asked myself this questions more times than I can count. All I do know is that his name is Bud Broadwater and he is the father of Ellick Randolph Broadwater born on May 07, 1887 in Moberly, Randolph County, Missouri. Ellick's Mother was Servilla Beeman (1854-1938).

Servilla's first husband, William Frank Burton, died in October 1884 in Illinois. Her next known recorded marriage was to James Patterson on July 17, 1894 in Illinois. None of Servilla's descendants know anything about Bud Broadwater. Some of them didn't even know his name at all until I discovered it.

I found one Broadwater family in Moberly Missouri in 1887. John Sidney Broadwater was born January 1823 in Virginia. He married Margaret Trimble on September 14, 1847 in Calloway County, Missouri.

Children:

Delia Broadwater b 1848
William George Broadwater b 1850
Jeanette Broadwater b 1852
Dora Broadwater b 1854
Randolph Broadwater b 1856
Sidney Broadwater b 1858
Sample Broadwater b 1862
Ada Broadwater b 1865
Forrest Broadwater b 1864
Eveline Broadwater b 1869

I can not find anything that can connect Bud to this family other than the grand-daughter of Delia remembers a brother of her grandmother called "Bud", but does not know what his given name was. She did know that he was a Rail Road Mechanic,

If anyone has any information about this family or any other family on this site please email me at [email protected]
