HI all- I have picked up a bunch of Bennett marriages, births and deaths from my recent trip to Benton-- Franklin and Hamilton Counties. If you're interested, I'm glad to share. The dates include many after 1900, and some have only names and reference numbers. Please email me if you'd like a copy. Joyce Escue Culver

Hi List, I have a picture that I am guessing was taken around 1913 . It is a class picture and on the back it says " Buckskin School ". Can anyone tell me about this school. I would also be interested in finding out who all the other children are, so I will see about getting it put on Carol's " Yesterday " page. Thank You, Carolyn Campbell White

Hi List Members, Could some tell me if there is a Tax List or any kind of a list for which people had to register between 1870 and 1880? Was there an Illinois State Census during that time period? Or for Hamilton Co. I am still trying to find Joseph Smith in this time period. He was born about 1804 . He was on the 1870 Hamilton Co. Census list with wife, Mary Margaret (Mrs. Peggy) but she was listed in 1880 living with her youngest son Enoch Taylor Smith If they exist, where could I find out information from them? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Evalyn

I sure don't. I can tell you that George and jane were in the household of William Mclean on the Ham Co 1870 census on 5 July and that Willam and Joseph were here also... For Effie's obit in Legacy it says she is the d/o George Dye (& Jane Smith- see Ham co m. #2388 25 aug 1864).... the Jane Smith part was added by Mr. Felty so it's possible that Effie could have had another mother as you suggest.... Columbus Dye was in Kencie, Ark. at time of her death (and was only sib mentioned) and he son Lealon Summers was in Thompsonville, Franklin Co., IL, and mabel of Jacksonville, IL?.....

Peg and Susan, I don't know if I'm researching Ichabod Mitchell's line or not. My Great Grandmother's name was Francis (Fanny) Henrietta Mitchell. I've been looking for information on her for a long time ~ as to her parents, etc., and can't find a thing. Does your Ichabod Mitchell have such a named daughter by any chance? Susan, << there is a picture of Ichabod Mitchell that I would like to add to my photopoint site, if anyone has a scannable image.  Ichabod's picture and obituary appear on the site "Yesterdays in Hamilton County IL.">> Have you tried opening a "new letter" page and just dragging the image to it so that you can then transfer the image to wherever you want it? If you still need help with this, let me know and I can probably get it transferred to you. I would need to send it to you by way of an attachment. Would need your E-mail add, since we can't send attachments to the site. Donna
