My great grandfather was naturalized in Geneva April 6 1890. The 1900 census shows my great grandmother as a widow living with her daughter. I tried the Illinois State Death index but it does not seem to go back that far. How can I narrow down the date of his death and were there death certificates at that time?

--part1_cb.7d3f4b6.26adf69e_boundary Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit << Some of you have the land description and want to know how to read it. Land Description: S1/2 NW1/4 S14 T19N R10E. This is a description of land. It is read from back to front, first finding on a map the Range, then Township, then Section. This piece of land would be the south 1/2 of the northwest 1/4 part of Section number 14 in a specific Township. Land Measures: 1. length: one mile equals 5280 feet, eighty chains, 320 rods, or 1760 yards. One rod equals 5.50 years, 16.5 feet or 25 links 2. Area: one square mile equals 640 acres or 102,400 square rods. One acre equals 4840 square yards or 43,500 square feet. One square rod equals 30.25 square yards, or .006 of a square acre. Yard Land: 1. A quantify of land which varies from fifteen to forty acres. In some places a quarter of an acre was called a yard of land. 2. a barn or pen for animals 3. a farmyard Land Patent: the document which states the settler had a permanent claim and was the first purchaser of a piece of land. Land Right: the legal obligations which are attached to ownership of land. Land Warrant: a certificate issued by a land office which entitled the possessor to a certain number of acres of land. The certificate was negotiable. Military warrant: a document issued by the land office requesting that land be set aside for a veteran entitled to it for his military service. The land was located in Ohio and Kentucky and eligibility for its ownership was based upon the veteran's military certificate. Military Certificate: a document stating that a person's proof of military service had been presented to the proper authorities and, therefore, he was eligible for a specific amount of land as compensation. There was only one claim to this type of land available to each person. Military land: public land which was reserved for Revolutionary or War of 1812 soldiers to receive as part of their compensation for service. Bounty Land (Federal) shortly after the beginning of the Revolutionary War the Continental Congress promised land to those who would serve in the Continental Army. The acreage of land so promised was on a sliding scale based on rank. For example, an enlisted man was to receive 100 acres, while a major general was to have 1,000 acres. Bounty land (State) in some states the promise of issuing land for service in the Rev. War was far more liberal than that of the federal government which led many veterans to trade bounty land warrants for state warrants. Patriotic service: during the Revolutionary War these persons did not serve on the field of battle, but served as wagoners, furnished ammunition or supplies and therefore were eligible for pensions. Many services to the Continental Army are now a part of the regular army; chaplains, physicians, veterinarians, paymasters, quartermasters, etc. Bondman: 1. male slave 2. a man who had been bound into service without wages being paid 3. a tenant who was not free, a villein. "bond" servant: an indentured servant Bondsman: a person, sometimes referred to as a surety, who pledges a sum of money as bond for another. Bondwoman: a female slave Bondmaid: a female who has been bound into service with no wages paid/a female slave. Marriage Bond: in Colonial days, this was a sum of money promised, usually by the parents or a close relative of a young couple, to the governor of the state. This was asked to ensure that there was no reason, moral or legal, for the couple not to marry and that they would not become charity cases. Money did not actually change hands, but could be called for if the marriage did not fulfill the requirements. Marriage register: a book which lists marriage licenses issued and, frequently, marriage returns. This book is kept at a clerk's office in the courthouse. Marriage return: notation by a minister which states on which date he married a couple. Nephew: 1. the male child of a person's brother or sister 2. sometimes in old documents can refer to other relatives: grandson, cousin, etc. 3. a descendant Neeveye: descendants Nee: born. This word is used after a married woman's surname to indicate her maiden name, e.g. Mrs. Marian Johnson, nee Baker. New mother: a Colonial term for a stepmother. Overseer: 1. A Colonial official appointed to do one of any number of supervisory jobs, a road supervisor 2. an officer of the Quaker church who had the duties of the business affairs of the meeting, preparing answers to queries, giving advice to members and preventing the introduction of unnecessary matters and premature complaints into meetings for business and discipline 3. Ordnance office in charge of construction. Sometimes he is called a superintendent 4. A person in charge of work on a plantation 5. An overlooker frequently appointed in wills. Sometimes the executor was called an overseer 6. a man in the pillory Overseer of the poor: in Colonial days the person appointed to this post purchased the materials to be used in work done by the unemployed. He also dispensed aid to the poor. Overseer of the road: a person appointed to maintain a specified stretch of road. He obtained workers to care for the road from the people who lived along it and used the road most frequently.

I have a King relative named Harriet Jones King who moved from Genese County, New York to the Sugar Grove-Aurora area around 1836 at the age of two. She married Rufus Fitch Johnson. Her parents were Aaron Noyas King of Vermont and Sarah Piarpont of New York. It is said Harriet' father came to the area with a fine team of horses. Since these two townships are close, I wonder if there could be a connection.

Sharon...if you can plan your trip to visit the Gail Borden Library on a Tuesday, the genealogy librarian should be available. His name is Bill Blohm. There are also several other librarians who know about the genealogy collection, but there quite a few who do not. The library is not open on Sundays during the summer. If you have any questions about the genealogy collection before you visit, please feel free to contact me. Judy Van Dusen

Hi, Thanks for your replies. It is nice to know that there are others out there. Sharon

Sharon, I have found loads of info at the Gail Borden library. They have newspapers, census, city directories, etc on microfilm/fisch(?) and many books. I would try and schedule an appt with one of the historians so they can acquaint you with what is available. Gail Borden url: http://www.elgin.lib.il.us/ I have yet to use some of the other places people were recommending just a month ago on this list so I cannot advise.

I have a great family group photo of my Nelson (Nilsson) ancestors that was taken in 1888 by Hough Studios of Downer Place, Aurora, Ill. It includes the parents, Nels Peter Nelson and Petronella (Nellie) Carlson Nelson with their children - Karl, b.1875 in Malmo Sweden, - Anna, b.1877 Malma, Sweden, - Emma, b.1882 Malmo, Sweden, - Edith, b.1884 Aurora, Ill. - Hilma, b.1886 Aurora, Ill., and George, b.1888, Aurora, Ill. The daughter, Emma, was my maternal grandmother and she married Andrew Peter Strom, 4-4-1901 at the Swedish M.E. church in Aurora and died in Dayton, Ohio in 1950. Does anyone else relate to this family? Ellie
