Part of my tree came from OH in the 1830s. Oral history from my grandmother: Mrs. Catherine Hullinger was born in Green Co., OH on Feb 22, 1813. Her maiden name was Catherine Wyckles. she was married in 1831 to Mr. Chance who died a few years later. Her second husband was Hiram Hullinger. They moved from OH to buffalo Hart Grove in 1866, then to far, two miles west of Niantic, where she lived the remainder of her life. Mr. Hullinger died in 1872. She was the mother of ten children, seven of whom survived her. I don't have the source for this information but hope it helps you. A church in Greene County, OH, moved pretty much en masse to central Illinois, in what was then Sangamon County but is now Logan, Menard, DeWitt and Sangamon. They founded several churches, primarily [for that group] the one in Lake Fork Township of Logan County. I have seen the actual records of that church which, amazingly, survive. Darlene

The church that moved pretty much en masse was the Predestinarian Baptist. Many early names of Logan County were among the members. According to the best estimate of a long time researcher into the history of that group, the Lake Fork Predestinarian Baptist church was NOT in Lake Fork Township but in south Mt. Pulaski Township, closer to the location of the town of Lake Fork. I just learned that recently. Many of my ancestors came with that church.
