You mentioned you were from the William line. The youngest son of William and Mercey Wheaton Hyzer was John Harry Hyzer b. in 1876. I think that he may be my fathers step father. The census in 1920 Liberty, NY shows he is married to a Lora or Flora and has two sons William and John. Do you know this family? Linda

Hi Jerry: Well, that settles the issue. According to that notice, Jeremiah surely was not related to the Frederick Co. Slick's. I had thought that perhaps he might be the s/o Jacob Slick=Margaret Otto, in that Jacob died young and Margaret was left to raise the kids, but she appears to have had them all with her until they became of age. Thus, at this point,I have no idea who the parents of Jeremiah were. Also, that kind of rules out any connection to William Slick, the Rev. War Vet. George Wright <gfwright@earthlink.net>

HI GEORGE: THE LANARD GAZETTE AUG 10, 1910 My GREAT GRANDPA JEREMIAH SLICK WAS BORN IN BALTIMORE CO. MD. JAN. 15, 1822 & DIED IN CARROLL CO., IL AUG.1,1910, AGE 88 YEARS, 6 MONTHS & 16 DAYS. HE WAS LEFT AN ORPHAN AT AN EARLY AGE, HAVING NO RECOLLECTION OF HIS PARENTS & REARED AMONG NON TOO KIND STRANGERS. I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR, WHO WAS JEREMIAH PARENTS MYSELF.

This is a update. I have gone back to the Carroll Co, Gen Soc. Page and have found the following: Nat. Applications... Peter CHRISTENSON, DEN, Date of intent filed 10-15-1881, Vol. 8, pg. 25 Nat. Granted Paul ANDERSON, GER, Vol 1, pg. 175, date 10-20-1876 Samuel LARSEN, Vol 1, pg 345, date 10-25-1880 Peter CHRISTENSON, DEN, Vol.1, pg 222 date 4-5-1886 I do not find an application listed for either Paul ANDERSON nor Samuel LARSON, but would hazard a guess they did in fact apply in Savannah, Carroll Co, IL. Per the 1900 census listing Crist. LARSEN (who I believe to be the father of Samuel) had applied for Nat. as of the time of the census, but no listing is shown on the Carroll Co, site for either application or issuance.. Another quick note...Paul ANDERSON was actually from DEN. he is listed on the site as from GER. which may very well be where he sailed from, or might have listed as such because of the 1864 war of DEN and GER., where Germany took control of an area of Denmark. The nat. date of 1876 agrees with the date shown in the 1900 census listing for Paul so am about 99% certian this is his listing in spite of the GER notation.

I have located an indexed listing of the naturalization papers of Paul ANDERSON ( immg. 1865; Vol.1, pg 175, Germany, nat. 10-20-1876) and Samuel LARSON (immg 1873; Vol.1, pg. 345, Denmark, nat.10-25-1880) on the Carroll Co, IL website. Only problen is the gen. soc. and the local county office say they can not find Vol. 1 which is where the documents are contained. I have been working with Anne Haliotis of the Carroll Co, Gen Soc. and she says the Vol. 1 is there, but the index listing on the Carroll Co site is incorrect and they (Paul ANDERSON & Samuel LARSON) are not found in this Vol. She said she will search for the records when she gets the time, but it's been since March of this year, and I have heard nothing. I have e-mailed her, but no reply. Is there anyone out there who can maybe help me??? I really would appreciate it! Thanks in advance! Connie

Searching for the Paul ANDERSON family who came from Denmark in 1865 and settled in Savannah, Carroll Co, IL. In 1870 the family consisted of Paul, wife Jensena, children Elizabeth, Fred and Christon. Also living with them was brother of Jensena, Peter CHRISTENSON. Oldest daughter Elizabeth married Samuel LARSON (of Denmark immg. 1873) in Savannah on 2-23-1877. Both the ANDERSON and the LARSON families moved to Smith Co, KS in the 1880's. The 1900 Carroll Co, IL census finds Crist (b. 1-1825) & Bolettie (b.3-1835) LARSON both of DEN (immg. 1887). I believe these to be the parents of Samuel LARSON. Next door is Mary ANDERSON who upon examining the 1800 census might well be Mary LARSON who married Andrew ANDERSON (poss. brother to Paul ANDERSON) The next house finds John LARSEN (b. 1835, immg 1872) and wife Alsa. I have no additional info of Peter CHRISTENSON. ANY BODY HAVE ANY INFO???

Jeremiah Slick was born 1822 in MD and left MD sometime around 1853 and settled in Freedom Twp., Carroll Co., IL. He is there in 1870 with Elizabeth and family. We are trying to find out who his parents were and where in MD he was born. Also, whether he died in Carroll Co.

I just received a marriage license for a Levi Hartman and Margaret B. Ruth. They lived in Lanark, Carroll Co., IL., till 1877, when they moved to Denton Co., TX. Does anyone have any information about this couple. I do have a copy of the 1880 census for Denton Co. and it shows a son born in 1877. His name is Charles Hartman, born in Texas, age 3. Levi was born in Bedford Co., PA and Margaret was born in Illinois. Christine

If your information has that John B. is the son of Peter, than that would be the right Peter. I am actually in the William line. I hope this helps you along the way.

Looking for any info of Frank Monroe Dixon. Possibly born 1860 in Savanna. Married Mary Grace Schmidekamp. Frank's parents may have been farmers in Carroll County. Thanks in advance for any info.

Searching for anyone having information on the Daggetts. My gg-grandmother was Mary Jane Daggett. She was born 11-16-1854 and she and her brother George went to school in Mt. Carroll. Please let me know if this name is familiar to you.

I am trying to locate Daggett's that should have been on the 1850 census. They lived in Mt. Carroll, IL in that time period. If you still have your census, would you mind checking for me. Thanks, Connie

Do you have any more info on Andrew Bauer? My ggg grandfather was Andrew Bauer, who may have lived in Wisconsin. When his son, Martin Bauer died, they listed Kenosha newspapers in his obituary in Chicago. Please let me know if you have more info.
