In 1850 Jacob BAYLESS was living in Cass Twp., Fulton Co. There is a brief Biographical of Jacob in the "History of Fulton County, Illinois", published by Chas. C. Chapman (1879), pg 585. If any one has access to this book, I would like a copy of the bio. Please contact me at my e-mail address. Thank you, Al Fischer amf@gorge.net
