Il Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Il/Knox/860 Surname: Hendrecks, McMaster ------------------------- Looking for information about Susan Hendrecks who died November 1911. She was married to Dr. William McMaster About October 1855. They had lived in Knox County, Illinois
I've been looking for the family of Francis Vigo McKee, son of Samuel McKee, MD, and brother to Archibald Buntin McKee of Vincennes. I've been told that Francis V married, had two daughters, and when his wife died he went south and had another family. Recently I've found the names Sally McKee and Molley McKee listed before the names of the children by his Texas wife, and I've read that he left the two daughters with his brother when he went south. I'm interested in confirming that these two were daughters of Francis V McKee and his first wife; learning the name of his first wife and her deates; and confirming that Archibald Buntin McKee cared for these girls at least for some point in their life. Any help appreciated. David R. Hoffman, Harrisburg, PA
