Paul; Didn't take it as criticism, my GG-Grandpa had an Aunt 8 years older than him who had all her kids before she married. She was also his sister-in-law because she married his wife's brother. Have you checked the online IL state records? http://www.sos.state.il.us/

Bob...thanks .. Rod Stucker is a grandson of Henry Delaney (note spelling) Henry was a 1/2 brother to Dessie Dulaney..he lived in CA...Rodney has been on the Dulaney family for a long time..we never thought to try "Dessa"..maybe we will hit paydirt...birthday for Dessie & Della (Dessa) is off about 6 years..of course that is still possible, as sometimes people did not give their correct ages for one reason or another.. Exciting find.....thanks..I will try to investigate this further...there as a branch of Dulaneys in Ohio, BUT this lady was b. in VA & parents in VA so that about eliminates the Ohio ones...

Searching for ANY info. on this lady... Odessa (Dessie) Dulaney b. in Floyd Co, VA Jan. 9, 1893..went to Woodhall area ca 1915-1918...this lady had a child out of wedlock and left the child here in VA and went to Henry Co...she is not listed under the Dulaney name in any Illinois census, so I assume she married..(in Henry Co.) and I do not know who she married..her child is now 91 years old and has never seen her mother since she was 4 years old..WHAT A CHRISTMAS PRESENT IT WOULD BE IF SHE FOUND WHERE HER MOM WENT AND WHO SHE MARRIED!...her daughter is named Rushie (Dulaney) Hylton and lives in Richmond, VA....

THANKS for your help....I will be shinin' up my dancin' shoes !! Ole Paul in VA keep the mail comin' to Ole Paul

Hi Ed - I've got an update on the Frank L. BUGIYNE from the 1920 census, Henry County, Wethersfield Township. I found him in the 1930 census married to one of the individuals from my family that he was living with in 1920. He apparently married Bessie IMES (first marriage to ? CRIST) shortly after the 1920 census. They settled in Chicago where they are found in the 1930 census. In this census, the birth information of Frank is changed. He is listed as born in Illinois to a father born in Belgium and a mother born in Wisconsin. If you look at the Illinois Death Index online at. . . http://www.sos.state.il.us/departments/archives/genealogy/forms/idphdeathsrch. html . . . you'll find a bunch of BUGIYNE individuals. Most of them are in Henry County and the two in Chicago are Bessie IMES and most likely Frank, although indexed as "Frak." Thought you might want the updated information for your files. Best of luck finding your folks. Shelly > Hi Shelly, > > Sorry for the late reply and thanks for the information you sent. > I know the "Begheyn" name is in America spelled in so many variations.

Hi Dick, Sorry for the late reply, I was busy, busy, and busy again. The information you sent is familiar to me; I had found it long ago in the internet (via Google, my favourit finder). However this Dennis Begyn is yet unknown for the familytree, he fits nowhere and remains in the archives for later use perhaps. Anyway thanks for your help.

Also I found Lowpoint, IL about 20 miles North-East of Peoria, IL. I used the Internet finder called "Google" (www.google.com) and searched for "Begyn" and found quite a few items!

Hi Shelly, Sorry for the late reply and thanks for the information you sent. I know the "Begheyn" name is in America spelled in so many variations.

Suzie, I cannot imagine any one person trying to keep up with a site as good as this one. Nobody can expect them to maintain it 24/7/365. You are doing a wonderful job. I have never had a problem looking up information..The helped I received from that search has been glorious so far. None of that help I would have received if it weren't for looking at things on the site.....Tell those monkeys to find another back!!!
