Mary: Nice to hear from one of the Illinois Behymers! I just posted some Illinois marriages on my web page. Included are the ones you indicated plus several others. Your Mary E Beehimer is one who I do not have in my database at the moment, i.e., she currently represents a missing link. Does anyone on this list have any information on her? The reason I inquired about Christian County, IL Behymers is that there were more of those listed in the Illinois marriages that I do not have in my database than any of the other Illinois Behymers. Obviously, I need to fill in the gaps here, and could use some help. I also was not aware of the 1860 census enumeration that you had found for Aaron. He represents yet another missing link. Does anyone have any information on him?

Yes, I have a Christian County, IL Behymer connection! I've been a list subscriber for probably a year and never corresponded, as I've never seen anyone with an Illinois connection. Mine is --- Mary E. Beehimer b. 1839, married John Swift on June 13, 1858. Son was Wilbur A. Swift b. April 28, 1863.
