Martin Horan and Catharine Dunleavey were married in Jo Daviess Co. 6 Mar 1848. The family may have moved to Iowa abt 1887. They had at least one daughter, Julia/Julie Ann who married Arthur McComish in Dubuque Co. IA. I would appreciate hearing from anyone who can tell me more about these individuals. Thanks!

Cheryl, Your email took me by surprise--I guess it's been about three years now that we have been electronically linked. I want to thank you for your generous gift of time and enthusiasm in helping all of us. My words seem inadequate right now and I'm struggling with these keys to type the right words--but my heart has already sent a prayer for courage and peace for you to carry on. I do believe that someday our spirits will meet. Thank you and thank you again, Susan Hart -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Susan Hart San Francisco State University Internet: [email protected] -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- On Wed, 16 May 2001, Cheryl Hemingway wrote: > My friends, > > To put this mildly, I have had an emergency medical condition announce it's presence.

Hi there.... Has anyone ever come across a Charles Sigafus who married Lizzie Billick? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! Bill
Hi there... Is there an index for death certificates for JoDav. co? If there is can someone look for David Swift for me. He lived in Hanover and died in 1886. That is all I know....I would like to know where he is buried. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! Bill
Yes, there is some flooding. East Dubuque has some flats area near the Mississippi under water. They have the National Guard helping with sand bags. The flood gates in Galena were closed to protect the Main Street. The ducks that are always on the Galena River can now swim on the part of the Main Street before the flood gates. The stores and houses in Galena are okay. Route 84 going to Savanna has a detour, I think the flooding is in the Savanna area. My sister and her husband who live on the River in Thomson had to move inland, but there house was up on cement blocks, so everything is safe except their storage area which they moved. We in Elizabeth are high and dry unless the Apple River decides to back up. Thank you for asking.

Is there flooding going on in JoDaviess County? Dinah
Someone asked about access to this list a day or two ago. I am able to bring it up this morning without any problems. Ray Justus Chandler, AZ
Am I the only one who can not read the list for the Marriage Book F - 1885 - 1895? The page acts like it is loading, it reads the whole thing, but I get nothing but a blank screen. Am keeping my fingers crossed that some of my family will show up on this page and not off in Wisconsin where they are not as free with marriage information as Illinois is. My granddaughter and I are heading for the Galena area this coming Saturday, hope the river minds its manners and lets us wonder around as we planned. Have searching to do from Galena to Clinton - would like to snoop around in Davenport, but that doesn't sound to promising. Look forward to hearing about the marriage information. Thanks Dorothy
