Posted on: Page Co. Ia Queries Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ia/Page?read=177 Surname: Root, Sickles ------------------------- I am seeking any information regarding Amos Root 1838 to 1919 and his wife Alphonseus (Sickles) Root 1836 to 1925. They are buried in the Union Grove Cemetery, Washington Township. Amos was born in Peoria County, IL. His wife is a descendant of a very old Dutch family from New York. I have extensive information on the Sickles family, but I really need to know more about her, her parents, family, etc. Is there an obit for her? Please post and also e-mail me direct to Marana2@aol.com. Thank you. Sandie
