HI Hope we be cousins, I am sure if Noyes JONES kin came west so did some of Susan's. I have a picture of their son but not of NOYES and SUSAN . Do you have pictures of your Madison ? and yes Clark was near them in NY also. Wonder where to start. I have the JONES back to Mass 1640. MADISON almost nothing but her name but I can give the childrens names and we can see if sounds same and where they were in NY etc. ?? I think best bet is look on MCHenry Co census and take 20 names above and 20 names below your name I do same for mine if I can ever get to library and I bet we find them as nieghbors indicating kinship.

My great-grandparents moved to the City of LaSalle in1880. He was a zinc smelter. They are listed in the census as being "French". Actually, they were Belgium. I noticed a lot of other "French" people on the the census who also worked in the zinc smelting plant. Is there anyone else of Belgium ancestry whose family worked in the zinc smelting plants on this list? I would like to exchange information. I would also like to know where I could find out more information on the zinc smelting plant. I saw a very small notation about it at one time being the largest in the nation and that it closed in 1960. Any chance there are records anywhere?
