Dear Cheryl, Here's a little post script to my last email. I looked again at your name. "Rothwell" That's certainly a familiar name. I seem to recall both grandmothers in Mt. Pulaski referring to "Keith Rothwell" Is that a relative of yours? If so, when were his dates? One grandmother, incidentally, was Minnie Mayer (David Clark's granddaughter) and the other was Anna Louise Weidenbacher (whose father was in the Civil War and, as I was told by a relative, sewed the flag for Lincoln's Springfield funeral. I haven't been able to come up with any proof of that, however, although I know he became a tailor after coming here from German (to escape the draft) and then being drafted into the Civil War. Out of the frying pan and into the fire. Wonder if you know of a way to track down that little bit of history as well. ---Marilyn Mayer ----- Original Message ----- From: "Cheryl Rothwell" <historysleuth@gmail.com> To: <ILFULTON-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, April 16, 2006 2:19 PM Subject: [ILFULTON] Welcome > Please welcome MaryLynne Perkins-Ellis as the new CC of Fulton County > ILGenWeb.
