In today's Herald and Review, Decatur newspaper, there is an article re the old Gouge cemetery in Harristown township and reference to the William Hanks family who are buried here. This is in Macon County. I believe some of the Hanks families spilled over into surrounding counties, so thought this might be of interest. URL below. This is the Hanks family that was connected to Abraham Lincoln's mother. http://www.hrtimeout.com/current/entfeatureslead/entfeatureslead.php http://www.heraldreview.com/ If the first URL doesn't work, try the second one and scroll down towards the bottom of the page for the link. --------------------------------------------------- Mary Ann Kaylor MY FAMILY GENEALOGY http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~makaylor/index.html CONVERSE CONNECTIONS http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~converse/index.html CONVERSE MAIL LIST Adminstrator TEDROW MAIL LIST Administrator KAYLOR MAIL LIST - To subscribe, please review KAYLOR MAIL LIST GUIDELINES: http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~zimzip/kaylor/maillist/
