I sent the following message when the list was probably one day old, so I'm sure very few saw this request. Looking for information on the descendants of William L. SHEPPARD, born in Fayette County, 8 Aug 1868. He married Lucinda Elizabeth FRIEND (born 9 Nov 1868, Fayette Co.) on 17 Aug 1887. These were the parents of my grandmother, Grace Lydia SHEPPARD, born 24 Oct 1895 unknown location, IL. My grandmother had seven brothers and sisters. After her mother died in 1903, her father remarried. Grace was put in a foster home and eventually ended up in Lisbon, North Dakota. Bob Nobis Mesa, AZ [email protected]
