For the 1850 census requests, I have access to Ancestry.com If I find the name, I'll type up what I can find unless there are too many then I'll just give first names and let you tell me which ones you want to know. Sometimes a name is shown but no one by that name is listed on the page, this might be because of a misinterpreted spelling etc. I can check again at a later date if you remind me. I can not type up everything I find because I have arthritis (I'm able to read it to you over the phone if you would rather. I don't mind, I just can't type for long periods. I am home all day usually-unemployed. I live near Chicago in Des Plaines, IL I'm not far from Jo Daviess County. Let me know if you want me to look up and read it to you.)
