Hi everybody!! I am a new subscriber to this list and this is my first posting to this list. I am going to start with what I know: Rhoda Brooks was born Apr. 18, 1850 at Rose Hill, Jasper Co., IL, she married William Kendall Nelson on Aug. 18, 1872 at Newton, Jasper Co., IL, and she died Jun. 24, 1911 at Greenville, Bond Co., IL, buried at Campground Cemetary, Bond Co., IL. I know that her parents were Thomas Brooks and Sarah (last name is unknown to me). According to the 1860 Jasper Co., IL census: Thomas Brooks was 48 years old and is wife was 44 with a listing of Thomas' birthplace as Ohio while Sarah's birthplace was listed as North Carolina. What I need is parentage and ancestry of both Thomas Brooks and his wife Sarah. Any information would be greatly appreciated. I can supply descendants and lines of descents off this marriage. Thank you Rich Fouke

I am looking for a little help. My GGrandmother was Mollie Richter. On her death certificate it lists her birthplace as Greenville, IL. Sept. 2 1867 (Bond Co.) My questions are; were there birth records kept that far back in Greenville?, and where would I write for a birth certificate if there is one?? Don Gursky

Are there any probate records dating from 1845-1850? If so where are they kept and are the accessable? I am specifically looking for the surname PATTON or PATTEN. Also are there any recorded land transfers in the 1850-1860 decade with PATTON or PATTEN as the seller?

Is there an index to the 1860 census? I am specifically looking for John (age 43) & Hannah (age34) PATTON (maybe spelled PATTEN); Judah PATTON (age 63) (female maybe spelled PATTEN); William & Gideon (twins age 24) PATTON (again maybe PATTEN). These persons were all listed on the 1850 census. Were they still in the county in 1860?

Looking for info on Michael FINLEY and Nelly Paisley who come to early Bond County (by 1820's) and settle along what became the Bond-Montgomery County borders.

Hi! Sleuthing through the History of Bond and Montgomery Counties, I have discovered a double connection between two of my ancestral families and the Jetts clan. One of my three-great grandfathers, William DAVIS, son of the Rev. John T. Davis, married Lucy Ann Nance in KY where both were born and moved to Bond County about 1836-37. Their daughter Lucy Ann Davis married my two great grandfather James Cowan Sanderson in Bond County in 1866. James's brother George married Mary Ann Jett in 1868. Lucy Ann Davis's sister Emma married William A. Jett. William A. Jett was born in Fauquier Co. VA, son of Thomas and Elizabeth Rogers Jett. Is anyone else researching these lines? Many thanks. Sandy

I recently changed emails from treesearch@email.msn.com to myline99@aol.com. Haven't received any emails, so I'm checking to see if I re-subscribed correctly. Joab Watson married Elizabeth Robinson 1828 Bond County, IL. Angela

Where or whom would I contact to get probate records for the 1840-1850 time frame for Bond County. I am trying to find the husband of widow Judah Patten listed in the 1850 census as family #41. Also how would I determine where in Bond County this family #41 lived? mncarr1@juno.com mncarr1996@aol.com ___________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.

Someone recently sent me this article on William Lewis DONNEL. I thought I'd post it, if you are interested in the DONNEL line. I am still looking for the parents of John Mabry DONNEL, b abt 1801 in TN. John Vermeer vermeer@bigfoot.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PORTRAIT AND BIOGRAPHICAL RECORD (Portrait & Biographical Record of Montgomery & Bond Counties, IL Cahpman Bros. Chicago Ill 1892) WILLIAM L. DONNEL, Sr. one of the most prominent and intelligent gentlemen residing in Shelby County, who is thoroughly public-spirited and capable of being a leader of thought and action in his township, resides on section 21, Ridge Township. His father was John M. Donnel, a native of Tennessee, as was also his mother, Elizabeth Jerregan. After marriage this couple settled in Rutherford County, Tenn., and thence emigrated to Montgomery County, Ill., about the year 1827. They afterward made their home in Vandalia, this State, where the life of Mrs. Donnel terminated near that place. Her husband who survived her, died in Williamson County, this State. He of whom we write was the eldest in a family of twelve children, and was bom in Rutherford County, Tenn., January 22, 1820; he came to Illinois with his father who was in limited circumstances and in order to assist his parents he worked out when he was a boy doing farm labor. During the winter of 1839-40 he moved the goods and press of the editor of the State Register with whom he had pleasant relations, as the older man appreciated the bright qualities of the boy. In March, 1840, he came to Shelby County, Ill., and engaged in farming upon his own account in Ridge Township. In June, 1846, he settled on section 21 of the latter township where he has since been a resident. Mr. William Donnel was married January 6, 1842, to Miss Mary Ann Roys, a daughter of Daniel and Hannah (Roys) Roys, both natives of Kentucky. Daniel Roys passed away from life in Ridge Township, but his widow still survives him and is now at the advanced age of eighty-seven years and makes her home with our subject. Mrs. Donnel was bom in Rush County, Ind., April 13, 1825. Mr. and Mrs. Donnel have had eleven bright and interesting children three of whom died in infancy. The surviving children are: Elizabeth J., the wife of John H. McDonald; Mary Ann, who married J. J. Himes; Sarah H., the wife of Charles Small; William L. Jr., who took to wife Miss Nettie Busby; George W., a clergyman of the Missionary Baptist Church in Oregon, whose wife bore the maiden name of Elizabeth Neal; James W., who married Sarah Killam; Charles H. and Dora E. are at home. Our subject has held the office of School Trustee for seventeen years and during that time has been very efficient in forwarding the educational interests of the township. He has also taken an active part in political affairs, casting his first Presidential vote for James K. Polk and being a worker in the Democratic ranks. In his religious connection he was formerly identified with the United Baptist Church but is now a member of the Christian Church. He has always been engaged in farming and stock raising and has erected upon his farm a first-class set of buildings and has two hundred acres in fine shape. He is a man keenly alive to the necessity for progress in the affairs of the neighborhood both social and industrial, and is truly appreciative of all good things whether intellectual or material.
