I tried to post this earlier but it did not show up; if this is a repeat post, I do apologize. I would like a look-up for: Elisha Farris Short b. Sept. 1858 IL; wife Mary b. abt. 1865 IL; they should have at least 1 child with them, a son named Leo b. 1903 in IL. In the 1900 Census, the family was in Williamson Co., IL but I have no clue if they were still there in 1910. Thank you for any help. Carol Our life may not always be the party we would have chosen, but while we are here, we may as well dance!
