Subject: JOHNS - BACON - HARNDEN - COMSTOCK

I'm searching for ANY information on Edward Frank JOHNS - born 1855 in New York. He married Anna Belle WEBSTER (born August 1858, Mass.) - They probably were married sometime in the summer 1874 and their first child "Ella" was born in June 1875 in Vermont.
I have learned that they "were not" married in Vermont!
The family moved west and the second daughter "Harriet - known as Hattie" was born in Nebraska in 1878.
The family them moved on to Colorado and daughter "Emma" was born in 1883. They then moved to Wyoming and my father "Edward B. JOHNS" was born March 23, 1885. A set of twins (Oliver & Olive) were born in August 1888 - also in Wyoming.
Shortly after the twins were born, my grandparents divorced and I have lost all track of my grandfather and most of my Dad's sisters. I'm also not able to pin down just where and when my grandmother passed away. She had remarried in the early 1890's to a fellow by the name of "C. BACON" - but he died around December 1915 in Wyoming. My grandmother (Anna B. BACON) is listed in the Albany County Wyo. Census in 1920 - as a "roomer" in the HARNDEN family (daughter "Hattie‘s" family.)
After 1920 I can't pin down any information on Anna B. BACON.
I would especially like to know what happened to my grandfather (Edward Frank JOHNS) and my dad's sisters (Ella - Emma & Olive.) I "think" the last names of HARNDEN and COMSTOCK are connected to a couple of my Dad's older sisters - but I don't know what happened to "Olive"?
His only brother "Oliver JOHNS" died rather young in December of 1917.
Anyone knowing ANY of the listed people - OR any help with any of these names would be much appreciated.
