Hi Lonnie, I will attempt to answer your questions about my WILLMORE family. Yes, Addie Isabel WILLMORE BYBEE is the d/o John H. and Sarah Jane PAGE WILLMORE, and, yes, she was the w/o Joseph William BORDER who d. Apr 18, 1925. Addie did die in 1945 in Bonnie, and is buried at Walnut Hill cemetery at Frisco, Franklin county. Addie's marriage to Joseph was her first: OCT. 13, 1885, , BORDER, JOSEPH W., 26, ADDIE I. WILLMORE, 17, OCT. 14, 1885, A. HALEY, MINISTER, OCT. 22, 1885 from Volume 6, Page 10 of the Jefferson County Illinois Marriage Register. Addie's second marriage was: FCI Marriage License Book O Page 18: J D DIAL of Mt Vernon, JCI; age 66 married Mrs. Addie Isabelle BORDER of Mt Vernon, JCI; age 58 on 10 Nov 1926 at Benton, Franklin Co., IL by T B McCLAIN, M.G. I do not have the record for her 3rd marriage to Jessie, but she was clearly married to him. According to Addie's obit, "Mrs. Bybee was born in Jefferson county, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Willmore. She was united in marriage with Jessie Bybee, who survives." If you are interested in her complete obit, let me know. Addie had 4 BYBEE sons by Joseph. I believe that Jessie is s/o of Sandy J and Celia FAGG BYBEE of KY. I show that Jessie was buried in Bethel Cemetery, Mt. Vernon, Jefferson, IL, while William Joseph and Addie are both buried in Walnut Grove Cemetery, Northern Twp., Franklin, IL. What information are you looking for w/ref to Sarah Jane PAGE WILLMORE? I will gladly share whatever I have that may be of help to you. Tell me about Daniel BORDERS please. I do not have him in my database by that name. Good luck, Kay In a message dated 12/29/2010 4:01:00 P.M.
