Judy, I've been doing lookups for anyone requesting same via the Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness Movement < http://www.rootsweb.com/~tnraogk/ >. I don't have any information on Rebecca A. Luddinton, etc., but can at least do a lookup in the Kankakee paper for December 1861. > Am looking for any and all information anyone may have on Rebecca A. Luddinton-Dille-Pitcher who married Jacob P. Pitcher Dec. 1861 and lived in the Kankakee area. Nickname was "Jake" Pitcher. Rebecca's daughter Mary Salina Dille married a Williams. > thank you in advance for any info on obituaries or articles in newspapers or death certificates information. I would gladly contact privately anyone who would do some look ups for me Since the only information in your note involves a marriage date, I'll look it up to see what I can find. Then I'll get back to you with results. It's also possible that our government center will have vital statistics on one party or the other. Before I check that out, tell me about Rebecca's surname and why you show three surnames for her. Was she married three times with Jacob as her third? The more information you give me, the more I can find out. Chuck Wilcox Two Decades of 19th Century Diaries at http://www.genweb.net/~wilcox/ Join The Movement . . .
