Shawnee - Minerva "Effie" Thompson (born about 1821), my g-grandmother's half-sister, married John Pilcher on 17 Jan 1839 in Adams County, IL. His parents were Edward (born 1814 ) & Nancy Pilcher. Edward and both John and Effie were born in Athens County, Ohio. The Thompson clan (5 brothers and their families) settled in Adams County in 1834. Children of John and Minerva were: Laura Grace married Alexander Crooks William married Emma Dilley Elsie (?) Sara "Sallie" married Lamar Farnsworth George married Phoebe Lease Josiah Will Pilcher and his family, and Sallie and Lamar Farnsworth, along with Minerva settled in Reno County, Kansas in the 1870s. Any connections to your line?

Yes they would be distant cousins. Edward would be a descendant of Caleb Pilcher which is the brother of my 7th great grandfather Robert Pilcher who was born in 1708 in Wales. I figure though a cousin is a cousin.

My grandfather was Doc Pilcher who was a barber in Hamilton, Hancock Co. One of my uncles was Moses Pilcher who married Patty True, they had 7 children. Their son Jeptha's family ended up in Adams Co.. I have not traced this family very much yet. Descendants of Jeptha Pilcher 1 Jeptha Pilcher b: 1834 in Illinois .. +Melissa Payne b: 1837 in Illinois m: December 08, 1856 in Adams Co, Illinois ........ 2 Albert Pilcher b: 1859 ........ 2 Etta Pilcher ........ 2 Adah Pilcher ........ 2 Jessie Pilcher Then another descendant, brother to my Robert who was born in about 1708 had children who moved to Adams Co, Illinois. I have not spent to mych time on that family either because I am in the process of finishing up my Bolt family in Adams Co, I can send you tyhat information also if you want it.

Some of us simply trade one small town for another. I grew up on a farm near a small town (Carthage, IL, pop. 2500 or so) and after college lived in Galesburg, IL (pop. ca. 33,000). While Galesburg is relatively small, I did NOT like living in "town" at all and when my oldest daughter was ready for kindergarden, we moved to a town of 150 or so in northwestern Knox Co. IL. I'm fifteen minutes from Galesburg, 45 minutes from a decent sized regional international airport and that's just fine with me (grin). Between Internet and email, I'm not that isolated. I travel quite a bit and visiting the city is fine, but all it takes is about fifteen minutes of driving in 6 lanes of traffic to make me want to return home.... I guess I just descend from too many generations of farmers--grin! I actually have to go back to 1849 before I have an ancestor who was an urban dweller. (and to make this a genealogy post, here are the names of my Adams County, Illinois, farmers, their areas of residence and the approximate date they started farming in Adams County): Hinrich Satorius, Golden area, 1850s Bernard Dirks, Coatsburg area, 1850s Foche Goldenstein, Golden area, 1900 Ulfert Behrens, Golden area, 1850s George Trautvetter, Loraine area 1910s Michael ---------------- Michael John Neill www.rootdig.com http://student.csc.cc.il.us/

If so you do know me. if not it is great to hear all the good storys and yes I have travel all those roads for as a little girl every sunday evening we would take a drive and see all the different homes and maybe stop a talk to different ones we would see. and now of course I dought anyone does that. you all take care. Linda Douglas and Elena Husemann wrote:wow, you guys bring back some old memories.:) When I lived back home, I lived in several areas in Adams county. Carthage, West Point, Bowen, Camp Point, Coatsburg. When they built the pool in West Point Bowen area, we ran the little Ice Cream stand for the first year or two while it was there. But heading west from Clayton, I 24, you will go pass the Camp Point HS. To downtown Camp Point. Royalties there is family, and the Mixers in Camp Point is family also. Fritz Brierton had a barber shop right off of 24, right next the Milk stand, (which recently became a shop for Making Linings for trucks and the like, if that shop is still there, that is my cousin) Fritz is my Grandfather. in his 80's now and still lives in the house that was the barber shop for the longest time. Close to the Police station.:) going on west. You run into coatsburg, 5 miles from camp point. if you take Columbus road South, My aunt an Uncle live the first road from 24. on that north corner. If you follow it on down south about 3 miles, it would have been the first farm my fathers parents owned. We lived there for a bit. You follow it on through columbus to threepoints you find the entrance to siloam springs (many a family event there) take a left you go to liberty. take a right you go past the air port into Quincy. the next road up over the railroad tracks takes you north into coatsburg, you follow that road up you run past my Grandparents other farm. Continuing on west. next town up is paloma, great resteraunt that got me hooked on Mountain dews at a young age, and of course the great Tenderloins:) and FS. going on west you run into Fowler. believe that is only 2 miles from paloma. Second main road going south in fowler will take you by my great grand uncles farm. taking those back roads you can make it over to payson where my dads cousin is farming.:) heading on to quincy. about a mile outside of fowler you will get to a farm that has a Electrical substation at the corner of the road(this was commonly known as the adams county fair road) (hoping I am remember that road in the proper place) Remember the sub station and the farmer that owned that farm near there lost his wife to a tractor accident 10 or 12 years ago. going on up the road from there you pass by where the Moormans research facility use to be on the north side of the road, (lived there for a bit when I was really young) just beyond that is the new highway they put in so you don't have to go all the way into quincy the back way to make it to down town like in the old days;) That freeway is nice when I drive home I just hit it. take the liberty road out of quincy and go over to three points take columbus road up to 24 and get to either my grandparents house or my aunt and uncles house in coatsburg or head over to camp point ot my other grand parents. I miss home, But I know that I could never go back to a small town and live again. not after all the years in the big cities.
