    1. I have to share some news

    3. There is a dear lady who lives in Washington (Tazewell Co) IL by the name of Carol who found my Gorin website on line. She has been blessing me with some of the most wonderful information and photographs. She lives in Washington and lives very close to the old city cemetery (Old Glendale) and the Glendale Cemetery where a LOT of our Gorin family is buried. She has gone to the cemetery three days in a row shooting pictures for me and helping out. She has no Gorin ties but became familiar with the family more helping someone else with an Anthony line who ties in with our Gorin's. Sanford Pell Gorin, son of Henry and Sarah Pell Gorin, moved to Washington IL very early and raised a large family there. He was the brother of my daughters' line and I have a goodly amount of correspondence between he and his siblings. Carol has sent me photographs of the following gravesites: Sanford Gorin family plot, Virginia Gorin Davidson (d/o Sanford), Helen A (Hellena Davidson (granddaughter of Sanford), Julia Gorin, Julian Edward Wood, John H. Anthony, John Gladin Gorin (s/o Sanford), John Albro Anthony, Mary W Gorin, Ellen M Gorin (Nellie, d/o John G), Elizabeth Gorin, Sanford Pell Gorin, Mary E B Crane, Josiah P. Wood, Josephine Gorin Wood, Guy Worcester Wood, George W. Crane, Ellen Mary Wood, Eliza E Davidson Jones, Crane family plot, daughter of Josiah Wood. All of these are sons/ grandsons/wives/grandchildren of Sanford. A few weeks back, another gal from southern IN connected with me on the Davidson family from here in Barren Co who moved to Eureka, Woodford, IL and one of their sons, Marshall, married Sanford's daughter, Virginia C (who is buried as noted above). She sent me photographs of the graves of Martha Glazebrook Davidson (wife of Caleb), Marhall and Mary Davidson, Clara L Davidson, Caleb Davidson, Clara Gorin, along with photos of the Caleb Davidson family in 1902, Marshall Davidson with dau Clara and a portrait of James D. Davidson. This covers the Woodford and Tazewell Co IL Gorin family beautifully. Carol above is also sending me more obituaries on the Gorin deaths in Washington IL which gives a peak inside the lives of our early ancestors. As my dau Kris is supposed to be married in June, I will be starting on another volume of the Gorin chronicles after that time. I have about 100 pages of new data plus all these pictures. I'm so thankful for the kindness of people, sometimes unrelated, who help make our family tree more personal! Sandi
