Checked the marriage index Patricia, the only resource I have at the moment for Edgar County and find only three McKinney men married and 7 McKinney women, but it looks like at least two of the women are the same one.

In @1895 my G. Grandmother Genevieve Case was born in or near Paris, Edgar County, IL. She lived ina a small house in Paris and recalled many trips to Indiana as a child. Unfortunately I did not listen enough to those stories when I was young and now she is gone leaving me to search without the benefit of her knowledge and wisdom. Her fathers name was Joseph an that's really all I have at the moment, but if it should ring any bells with anyone I would appreciate hearing about it. ===== Jim Williamson Researching: Williamson, Marth, Kinsella, Case, Pace, Hall, Straub, Fox, and McCurdy (the last until I can prove/disprove a link to the Williamson line) __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
