Neither of us lived in Deerfield (which is about 10/15 miles south), but lived in Warren Township. Warren Township consisted of a few towns. Those I remember would be Gurnee, Gages Lake, and Woodland. I recently saw Janet at a class reunion, but don't know her married name. I can find out however. If interested in contacting her, please let me know. You also mentioned MAHEN name. Very near Deerfield was a settlement of many Irish called MEEHAN'S Settlement. There are documents/letters written about Meehan's and its inhabitants. You may find information in those documents. You can contact the The Waukegan Historical Society for information on them.
