Pat, That's right my Great Grandfather and Uncle Jesse wanted to bury Johnie at Horse Prairie with his first wife. Strange thing about Aunt Alta her death record has her as being sick and died. But some of the family said that Uncle Johnie found her hanging in the barn. One of the family secets I guess. My grandmother said no one ever said much about her.

Debbie, I pulled up the picture of Log Cabin in Thompsonville and identified it as the cabin of my 6th great grandfather, Nathaniel Jones which was still in excellent shape when the Historical Society purchased it and moved log by log into the middle of town from out East of Benton near the Jones Cemetery. I was given the key years ago to go through and was amazed at the good shape it was still in and marveled at how with so few tools could a man take down those great big trees, haul them to the place they were building their home and lift up on top of one another. I sent the article while ago but doesn't look like it is going to come through, possibly because it had a picture with it. There is so much history with that Jones family. One of the grandsons built the large, well known Jones Department store in Kansas City. I have a signed book written by John Logan Jones who built that store. If you want more information about him go to Google and put in Jones Department store build by John Logan Jones.

I noticed yesterday that there are a couple of photographers on Flickr that post pictures taken all around FCI - most are fairly recent. But you never know when a building is going to be torn down. http://goo.gl/3n4Kf These are all public pictures. Not sure if you have to log in or not to view. I just put "Franklin County Illinois" without the quotes in the search box up in the upper right and a lot came up. Debbie V.
