I was wondering if you could fill me in on a possible family connection. My great-great grandmother Alpha O. Anderson was born April 22, 1850, in Illinois, to John T. and Anna R. (Marcum) Anderson. In 1860, she's listed in the Warren County, Illinois, census as living with Cyrus L. Buck (30) of VT, Julia Ann (Baker) Buck (26) of Ind., and Endola (?) Buck (2) of Ill. Do you happen to know the connection between the Anderson and Buck families? I'm assuming that Alpha became an orphan sometime between 1852 (when her youngest brother was born) and 1860. Thanks for your help!
