Re. your inquiry about Robert COVERT, the 1860 Illinois Census INDEX shows that a Robert COVERT was living in Fulton County and is listed in Lewistown on page 008 of the census. If someone on the list has access to the actual census, perhaps they can check it for you. A listing for Martha COVERT is also in the index; however, she is shown as living in Effingham County, Elliottstown P. O., page 1105.
