Hi EdnaRuth, I am having trouble find Anderson, but I did find a Rebecca in 1870. Here is her info: Hancock, Rebecca 42 KY " George T. 21 Illinois " Eliza E? 14 " " Rebecca J. 11 " " John W. 9 " " Tibitha 4 " " Sarah A 1 " The 1860 census index doesn't seem to be very good, but I hope this helps you. It was in the 1870 Zanesville, Montgomery Illinois census, page 304 Regards, Becky At 08:29 PM 8/10/2003 -0500, you wrote: >Anderson Hancock's middle name was Jackson.
