Hi Edna, My family was from a lot of places but settled in the Momence, Illinois area. St. Anne's is mentioned a lot as well. Kankakee county. They were close to the Malone's, and Tailors (Terrine) relatives. I would love to know more about all of them and if any are still alive. I did not know of them as a child but I have seen James H. Alexander, Elizabeth (Malone)Alexander, Julia (Taylor,Terrine)Alexander, Scott Alexander, Harry W. Alexander are all buried at the Momence cemetery. I have pictures and a little map that tells exactly where they were. I found a death notice in the paper for Harry W. Alexander and it says his mother Julia Alexander lived at 611 6th street. I live in California but want to one day go to Momence and see what I can find. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
