Hi Gloria, Wow, that was quick! Well, thank you very much for such a prompt response. This is indeed the Bronaugh's I wanted, and it does show that their nephew Thomas was not with them at that time, either as Poindexter or Bronaugh. Hmm, wonder where the little devil could have been ... Anyhow, THANK you so much for your reply! Boy, I just love the Lists! Thanks again, and best regards to you and yours, Gloria Atwater At 10:40 PM 3/14/99 -0600, you wrote: >I think just one township transcribed and can be bought from >Littleton Bradley for 1880 and that happens to be Virden Twp. >http://www.rootsweb.com/~ilmacoup/m_bksale.htm > >No Poindexter in Virden Twp for 1880 >The only BRONAGHs I found in the Virden Twp 1880 Census. > >190/203 (Dey Street) >BRONAUGH >John, M,65,Grain Merchant, VA,VA,Va >Louisa,F,58,Wife,House Keeper, KY, VA, NC >HAND >Lena,F,32,Servant,KY,Ger,Ger > >190/204 >BRONAUGH >James,M,32,Grain Merchant, IL,VA,KY >Amelia, F,30,Wife,House Keeper,KY,KY,KY >BLACK >Magie (Black) F, 14, Servant, KY,KY,KY

Hi Y'all! I'm new to the list, and hoping someone here can do me a HUGE favor. Is there anyone on this list with access to the 1880 Macoupin Co. census? I would very much like to locate the family of John M. & Louisa BRONAUGH, who probably lived in or near Virden. They were a prominent family there for some years, but I would really, truly love to know who is in the household with them, ages, places of birth, anything else available. In particular I am hoping to shed some light on the whereabouts of their nephew, Thomas S. POINDEXTER, who is said to have been living with his aunt Louisa Bronaugh at that time. He was born in Oregon, but sent to live with relatives for a while would have been about age 15 or 16. It is possible he was using the name Thomas or Tommy Bronaugh, but I really don't know. Anyhow, if anyone can lookup the John M. BRONAUGH family in 1880 Macoupin Co., I would be forever grateful. I live way out in the State of Nevada, in a rural area, so it's kind of hard for me to do this census stuff.... Thanks so much! Gloria Atwater Gardnerville, NV

These two URLs will calculate a birthdate from a given date of death and an age in years-months-days. They sure can be handy. Jack Cox http://enws347.eas.asu.edu:8000/~buckner/bdform.html http://www.icubed.com/~ldill/utilities/BDCalc.html

Probably the best way to get this to members of the Macoupin County Genealogical Society who are online is to put it here. And, we will get a notice on a page or two.

So many have written about this line I will post it to the list. Green Washington Farrar was born in TN to William Farrar and Elizabeth Brekeen Green Washington Farrar married Laura Sinclair on April 24, 1824 in Robertson Co., TN (no other information about the Sinclair name. Their children: (taken from a letter written by Thomas Jefferson Farrar George Washington Farrar b. Sept. 20 1895 in Robertson Co. Tenn. George m. Della Styles (she was married to Stull first) on Nov. 18, 1853 Carlinville, IL. George left Della & children for a younger woman...don't know where he went. Sarah Elizabeth Farrar b. April 20, 1828 M. Aug. 23, 1847 to William Duncan William Caroll Farrar, May 27, 1830 Thomas Jefferson Farrar, Sept 5, 1832, north of Mt. Olive, Macoupin Co., ILL m. Apr 23, 1857 in Carlinville to Mary Ann Mariah Sawyer Nancy J. Farrar, Nov. 9, 1834 James Newton Farrar b. & D. in 1840 Laura Ann Farrar, March 26, 1841, north of Mt. Olive, Macoupin Co., ILL Green Wesley Farrar, April 7, 1843 The son of George Washington and Della Styles was William Franklin Farrar b. sept 15, 1857 in Carlinville He married in Carlinville on March 13 1879 to Sophia Sarah Diesel. She was born in germany on Aug. 15 1855. Her father was Henry Diesel. The story is that Henry(no mention of mother) brought his family to Carlinville. He soon took the sons back to Germany, but left the two girls with a foster family. He never returned for them. My grandmother always told us that Henry had invented the Diesel engine, but his nephew had stole the idea and had patented it. I have the Farrar line pretty well proven back to William Farrar, b. 1594 in England. there is a lot of controversy about this line, but I have a cousin that has done a great deal of work on it...and her reasoning sounds good to me. I would like to know more about the Diesel family, either to prove or disprove the story. I know that William Franklin always hated his father, but I would like to know what happened to George Washington Farrar. Lucinda LeGate Shinn, carney, OK

CATHERINE WEBSTER married 1st Jason K. PROVEN or PROVENCE. He left Macoupin .co. for the California gold fields and was never again heard from. She then married my ggrandfather, Chas P. BINNEY. Is there anyone with ties to Jason or ever heard of him? Is there any publication that is dedicated to those who lost their lives on the trail? Much obliged. Robert

Debbie, The divorce file can be a large file, and can be expensive to get the whole file. When I was at the court house, they suggested the Final Decree. This usually shows the names of the divocing couple, any minor children, division of property, etc. The one I have is only two pages.

I do have the Cemetery book and in Union Miners Cemetery, there are 15 Viehweg's (youngest one b. 1911, oldest b. 1868). All are spelled VIEHWEG. Immanuel Lutheran Cemetery (across the road from Union Miners) has 2. And Calvary has 1. There are just 2 Dworsack's in Union Miners (none in the others).
