I'm searching for additional information about Robert Bowles, who resided in Clinton Co., IL, in 1840. (The name is Boles in other records.) Robert purchased 40 acres in Carlyle Township in 1839. He was involved in a land transaction in 1848. In 1849 the heirs of Robert Boles paid taxes on property in Clinton Co. I have evidence that three of his children were William M. Boles, Martha A. Boles and James Boles. The 1830 census of Clinton Co. indicates more children in the family, but I don't know the names. I would like additional information about Robert's children, when and where he died, and where he's buried. Any help in finding this information would be appreciated. Bob Saunders, Salem, Oregon
