Yes, Betty, I would appreciate it since I am descended from Ambrose and I try to add any info on the Maulding family to my book. Was this in the McLeansboro Times? I check all names out for their parents, etc. but I must have missed this one. Thanks for the offer.

Hello Folks, A couple of weeks ago the History Channel.com contacted me requesting permission to list "Yesterdays in Hamilton County, IL" on their "best of the web" link site and in return offered me a 10% discount for any product purchased by anyone who accesses their site through Yesterdays. I decided to do this in hopes of defraying some of my costs involved with the site. Don't worry there are no pop-up banners! Besides, I was honored that they selected our site and I did not contact them first. Apparently, the History Channel is starting something new and they now have a genealogy link section for their recommended viewing. So far, they have 17 genealogy sites listed. I don't know what brought Yesterdays to their attention but I have all of you who have contributed to it to thank!! This, of course, will mean more viewers and, hopefully, even more contributed material to post. Well, enough of that! Today I have added 41 more census pages to the 1860 census. Only 25 more to go and will I ever be glad when it is finished!!!! I am transcribing it from a CD and it is very tedious and difficult to do. Again, thanks to all! Carol "Yesterdays in Hamilton Co., IL" http://www.carolyar.com/Illinois/HamiltonCounty.htm

List, This is long so get a cup of coffee and put your feet up. This contains data for the SURNAMES: GAMMON PENNINGTON TROTTER GARRISON WARFIELD LANE (Moses Lane's line) and HALL (William m. a WARFIELD???). After I responded to Lynda's email on my lines from Macon Co., TN, several people contacted me and several are from the same surnames. Therefore, I am returning this info to the list to help others that might be of interest. Lynda (Lane Miller) asked if anyone has families that came from TN. As for the William HALL line you are interested, send a query here. There are several HaLL researchers that may have this (Trev??). I know of 12 people have been working on the HALL line and af few have lines doing it for over 3 generations. To date, no one has been able to 'prove' how your William Hall ties into ours. Again, Trev, can you help here? I do know most of the info on your LANE, HALL, and MILLER lines are found in Hamilton Co. Not sure about your GAMMON line. If you know who Mary Ann E.E. Gammon's parents were, I will be able to help you more. IF she is off of William and Agnes GAMMON: William and Agnes were born in TN (not sure of where). Two of their boys, William and Levi, went born in Macon Co., TN and settled in Wayne Co., IL, near the county line of Wayne and Hamilton (Wayne City to Big Mound area). This explains why you'll find GAMMON info in Wayne and Hamilton counties. The other surnames you are seeking can be found in Wayne Co. and those surnames are: TROTTER, GARRISON, GAMMON (??), and PENNINGTON. See more below but when you are ready, here's the url for Wayne Co: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ilwayne Your Isham (Isom) Trotter and Nancy Warfield, I have: His parents were: f. William Joseph TROTTER (1765 Scotland - 1831 Wayne Co., IL) m. Sarah King (1765 - 1821 Wayne Co., IL) Most likely Wm and Sarah were buried in the TROTTER Cem (and that is what started it). If so, there is no stone for either to be found today. For more info on this 'swampy, loaded with copperhead and blue racer snakes', and the stones that are left, read the info on the Wayne Co. site, as: 1. scroll down to Items Submitted and click on cemeteries. 2. scroll down and click on Trotter. A FGS for Wm Joseph and Sarah (KING) TROTTER is on Wayne Co., site: 1. Scroll down to FGS and click on 1999-Y2K 2. scroll down to and click on the letter T 3. scroll down to and click TROTTER, William Joseph Wm. and Sarah's Child: Isham (Isom) Trotter (1828 KY - 1880 Hamilton Co., IL) s. Nancy Warfield 1837, Hamilton Co., IL. Child: Rebecca Trotter (1839 Hamilton Co., IL - 1907 Wayne Co., IL) m 1859 Hamilton Co., IL s Dr. Gregory (Gregg) GARRISON A BASIC of this line is on the Wayne Co., site. To see GARRISON: 1. scroll down to FGS and click 1999-Y2K 2. click on letter "G" 3. click on GARRISON, James and Ester (Hester) ROBERTS 4. read the history and click on James (at bottom) 5. click on Samuel Garrison (Gregg's father) TROTTER - PENNINGTON Joseph TROTTER (see the TROTTER FGS on Wayne Co., IL), son of William Joseph and Sarah (KING) TROTTER (child #3). Joseph TROTTER son of Charles Otis and Mary (FLATT) TROTTER 1827 KY - 1884 Wayne Co., IL s. Elmire PENNINGTON (1829 - 1893 Wayne Co., IL) Last, use the search engine on Wayne Co.'s site to find more on your surnames (as Bios, Obits, and more). EXPERT person to contact on the TROTTER line is Pam Dupres and her email is dupe@arq.net For GARRISON line, if you need more info, contact me. For William and Agnes GAMMON line, contact me. LANE, Moses, we have contacted each other on this line. I can not help you with more since it is not my direct line so I don't have the answers you want. My HALL line married into your LANE line and we went over that. Let me know what other names you are looking for. If I don't have the info I may know of someone that does. Thanks!

Special request for migration info: Does anyone have a family line that migrated to Hamilton Co,Illinois, from Tennessee about 1835-1838 ? I would be interested in what area of Tennessee they came from. Still trying to locate what area of Tennessee my Robert Gibson/Gipson and family came from. Originally he was from somewhere in NC...in Tennessee by at least 1807 ...remained there until at least 1827...all indications are that he and family arrived in Hamilton Co, IL abt 1838...give or take a year. It appears that most,if not all, of Robert Gibson's children were born in TN in early 1800's. thanks, barb in Savannah,GA

Thanks again to all of you who helped me out with directions for locating cemeteries around Dahlgren. My trip this weekend was a lot of fun, and very successful in terms of genealogy. We managed to find Richardson Hill without much difficulty, and met my Cousin Diane and her husband there. We had a great chance to hear some stories about growing up in Dahlgren, and enjoyed the wonderful view of the area from up on "The Hill". We were also able to find all the tombstones we were looking for and get photos. We even found several interesting ones we weren't looking for. My great-grandfather had a brother who died in infancy, and I've spent over a year looking for any evidence of his existence. Well, sure enough, he's buried at Richardson Hill right next to his grandparents. The grave just isn't listed in the HCI Cemetery transcription book! In fact, I numerous errors in the transcription book - dates transcribed wrong, information added that I know from other reliable sources to be incorrect, or very useful information that wasn't transcribed at all. It just goes to show you how helpful it is to actually visit the cemtery yourself. At Diane's advice, we had a nice lunch at Wilkey's cafe up the road in Belle Rive where folks were very nice to us visitors. We then found Bethel cemetery, where I seem to be related in some fashion or another to the vast majority of the people buried there. It's very sad, though, to see that there are at least 15 or 20 old sandstone tombstones that are now weathered away to literally just a stub of rock poking a few inches out of the ground. Anyway, it was wonderful to visit my "ancestral home" and I've got a lot of new information I need to get into my database! Thanks again to all of you who helped us out! Jim

Evalyn, I found two marriages for David Franklin Sandusky. I believe you knew the first one when he married Ella Ward 17 May 1882, Bk, 1,# 5367. His second marriage: David F. Sandusky Residence: Hamilton County Occupation: Farming Age at next birthday: 63 Color: White Place of birth: KY Father's name: Aquila Sandusky Mother's name: Matilkda Westminster No. of marriages: 2 married on 2 July 1920 at McLeasboro Elizie M. Kinlock Maiden name if widow: Eliza Maulding Place of Residence: Oklahoma City Age at next birthday: 62 Color: White Place of birth: Hamilton County Father's name: Dow Maulding Mother's name: Nancy Price No. of marriages: 3 I did not find a first marriage for her in Hamilton County. I did find a marriage for her parents: Lorenzo Dan (although I believe it is Dow) Maulding and Nancy Price were married 1 Aug 1854. Bk C, # 1375. David and Eliza were divorced in Hamilton County Mar 1926, Box 205, File 10. It is listed in the Index as David F. Sandusky, Plaintiff and E. M. Sandusky, Defendant. You may obtain this document by writing to Bobbi Oxford, Circuit Clerk, Hamilton County Court House, McLeansboro, IL 68259. When you request the document, Bobbi will write back, telling you how many pages are involved. The cost of each page is 30 cents. Then you will know how much money to send. Shirls

Jim and List: My face is red!! I learned something today that I did not know. I had even emailed Patrick Anderson who is related to both Maulding and Sandusky and he didn't have any proof of a second marriage. He did have the same information that you had mentioned from the Maulding book I called a grandaughter of David Franklin Sandusky today and when I asked if he had married a second time, I couldn't believe what I was hearing. He did marry a second time and it was Liza Kinlock! Marie did not know how they met or just when they got married. She thought they probably married in Hamilton Co.IL Liza was from Denver, Colorado. And although she was a very nice person and everyone liked her, she did not stay in Hamilton Co. for a long time. She missed the city living and returned to Denver, Colorado. She did however spend her last days in Missouri. Jim you can keep David as a second husband after all. Sorry, I didn't intend to give you misinformation. I really didn't know there had been a second marriage. If you find any dates of marriage, or divorce (don't know that there was one) please let me know. I would also like to have some info on Liza -birth, death, parents names. first husband and date of marriage. Thanks. Evalyn

I'm doing some research on my BILLINGS line (through Patsy BILLINGS BIGGERSTAFF) and am trying to figure out the BILLINGS' who were in Hamilton Co. Here's who I'm looking at ... Henry BILLINGS m. 1823 to Peggy KIMSEY. Who were Peggy's parents? Where did Henry and Peggy go after the marriage? Arden BILLINGS m. 1823 to Mary COVER. Arden was likely a brother of Patsy (BILLINGS) BIGGERSTAFF and father of Henry BILLINGS. He was previously married in 1801 in Davidson Co, TN to Catey HARGROVE. Between 1840 and 1850, Arden and Mary and many of this family moved to the Pike Co, IL area. Who were Mary COVER's parents? Elizabeth BILLINGS m. 1826 to Francis M. LEAR. There are indications that she was a dau. of John BILLINGS (b. c1782) and born in 1808 in Iberville Parish, LA where some of the BILLINGS clan migrated from TN. But none of this is proven at this point. Francis and Elizabeth seem to have removed to Morgan Co, MO soon after the marriage. Anyone with more info. on Elizabeth? John BILLINGS m. 1836 to Polly STRAWMATT (in Gallatin Co, IL). Who were John's parents and where did John and Polly go? I've seen STRAWMATTs in Hamilton Co. Nathan PRICE/PRINCE m. 1840 to Polly BILLINGS (d. of Arden). Nathan and Polly were in Pike Co, IL in 1850 census, not far from Arden. Was Nathan a PRICE or a PRINCE? The mar. rec. and 1850 census seem to say PRICE. But, PRINCE makes a little more sense. John HUBBLE m. 1841 to Cleracy BILLINGS. Who was John HUBBLE? I can't find him before or after the marriage. Cleracy may have been another dau. of Arden. William H. MAYBERRY m. 1841 to Mary Jane BILLINGS. This one is confusing. Is this the same William H. MAYBERRY who m. 1847 to Mary Caroline GARRISON and died in 1882 in Wayne Co, IL? I have seen this indicated as so in some places. However, I have some evidence that William and Polly removed to Wright Co, MO where they show up on the 1850 census: William Mayberry 37 b. IL Polly 23 b. TN Jane 14 b. IL Elizabeth 12 b. IL Margurette 7 b. IL Henry 5 b. MO Solomon 3 b. MO Michael 3/12 b. MO William must have been married before he married Polly. Then, on the 1860 census, William seems to have a new wife: William Mayberry 45 b. IL Rebecca 28 b. TN Henry 14 b. MO Michael 9 b. MO Louisa 8 b. MO Missouri 3 b. MO Heighty (?) 1 b. MO Henry seems to actually been named William Henry. The BILLINGS link seems to come from the death certificate of one of the children. Any clues here on William and Polly? Was this William possibly the son of Solomon MAYBERRY? I've posted some BILLINGS data if anyone is interested. It is at: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~mhebert/sur/ >From the way it seems at this point, Arden BILLINGS and Patsy (BILLINGS) BIGGERSTAFF are descended from Jasper BILLINGS (d. 1763 in Pittsylvania Co, VA) through one of his sons ... perhaps William. There are a number of researchers looking at these BILLINGS'. Anyone with further clues on the above Hamilton Co. families, I'd appreciate hearing from you. Thanks, Mike
