Surnames: Piniak, Stasik, Moline, Baldino Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Sg.2ADI/1819 Message Board Post: Just wanted to know if anyone had ever researched the story behind the November 8, 1952 deaths of three individuals in Will County near Romeoville. Paul Moline, my uncle; was driving along then Highway 66 (now Hiway 55) north of Romeoville and collided with a lampost near the intersection of Route 53. With him in the car were Stanley Piniak, 46, of Chicago, and John J. Stasik, 38, of Chicago. Both my uncle and Piniak were discovered to have shotgun head wounds later when taken to the morgue. Stasik was driving. A man named Anthony A. Baldino, 46, of Wauconda, a Union official was coincidentally also found dead of a shotgun head wound in a car just north of this location. Sounds like some kind of mob hit and was wondering whether anyone had done any research regarding it. All were Teamsters Union members.

Mats, I have the Lake Forest Cemetery Burial Book, and there is no Nilsson or Widen listed as being buried there. There is a Catholic Cemetery in Lake Forest, but doubt being that Carl & Hilma were Swedish, that they would have been Catholic. I have a Edit Ingeborg Nilsson b. 1902 in Halarp, Gevie, Sweden in my family. She married my grandfather's brother (Andreas Henning Johansson) in 1926 in Grevie, Sweden.

Thank you, Carolyn. This is the information I knew, but thank you for the look-up and verification. I was just hoping my g-g-grandmother was there too. No Name Bluidhorn was my g-g-grandfather, Christian BLUDORN. We think Carolyn BLUDORN may have died sometime in the winter of 1886 on the land they homesteaded in Dakota Territory. It was in January 1887 that Christian sold the land and moved to Lake Forest with my g-grandparents. If she died in the winter we wonder if the ground was too frozen to bury her. Thank you anyway for your help.

Carolyn, I hate to take the focus off the Widen's but would you mind doing a look-up for me in the Lake Forest Cemetery book. I know that my g-g-grandfather, Christian BLUDORN (also spelled Bluidorn) and an infant CAPP born in 1900 are buried there. However, are there any other BLUDORN or CAPP burials there in the 1880-1910 time frame? I am specifically looking for Carolyn BLUDORN my g-g-grandmother. We don't know where she is buried. Thank you.

What would Nome be short for? 2. How old would these guys be now? 3. Would you know how to contact them? I'm thinking anyone still alive would be grandchildren or great children to the people that I identified. Not sure how to crack this open.... Bob Ferguson

Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Sg.2ADI/1807.2 Message Board Post: Hi Carolyn, I thought I sent this before but didn't see it in the links, so I will send again - I apologize if this is a duplicate. John Ragan is mentioned prominently in Past and Present of Lake County (1877). "Among the early settlers were Daniel Marsh, William Fenwick, Dr. Ryan, John G. Ragan..." "Michael Murry and John G. Ragan came in August 1836. Mr. Ragan settled on the place where he continues to reside. In June, 1836, the wife of Oliver Booth, who had remained in the East, joined him, bringing their daugher Helen and his wife's sister, Mrs. Hannah Tucker - Mr. Booth, with Charles Fletcher and P.P. Houghton, having come out previously. They were from the State of Vermont." "A post office had been established in the township in 1844, called Gilmer, and John G. Ragan appointed Postmaster. It was so named in honor of Thomas W. Gilmer, Secretary of the Navy under President Tyler, who was killed by the bursting of a gun on board of the United States Steamer Princeton, February 28, 1844. Mr. Ragan, as might well be supposed, became greatly attached to the name, and urged it with earnestness." "The first marriage occurring in the township is said to have been that of John G. Ragan with Miss. Hanah Tucker, January 9, 1839. They were married by Hiram Kennicott, a Justice of the Peace." "The first Justice of the Peace acting in this township was John G. Ragan. He was elected when this county formed a part of McHenry County, and commissioned by Gov. Duncan, August 5th, 1837." "John G. Ragan, whose name is also mentioned as among the earlierst settlers of this town, who is so closely identified with its early history, and who has been styled the Patriarch of Fremont, has long been a prominent citizen of this township. He was elected County Commission in 1844, and was afterward Sheriff of the county." The summary bio is as follows: John G. Ragan, farmer, Sec. 34, PO Gilmer, born in Philadelphia, Pa., Feb. 28, 1812; came to county Aug. 5, 1836; was one fo the first Justices of the Peace of the old County; married the first couple that were married in the county; held offices of County Commissioner, School Director, Town Supervisor, Road Commissioner, Town Collector and was Sheriff for a number of years; married Miss Hannah Tucker, Jan. 9, 1839; she died Aug. 16, 1847; married Miss Hapsitah Tucker, Jan. 1, 1849; had tow children by his first wife; one son in the army - William M. enlisted in the Chicago Board of Trade Battery, and was honorably discharged at the end of the war; owns 120 acres land, valued at $8000; Rep.; Universalist."
