Searching for CHARLES A. PETTY , who married ANNIE PARKER in Massac Co., Ill. in 1889. Need lookup in 1900 MASSAC Co. CENSUS for this family , please! Need to find out if there is a SARAH ELLEN KELLER with them, or ANDREW KELLER. Sarah Ellen Keller , born 1864 Married ALEXANDER BURNS , unknown when & where. Sarah and Alexander Burns moved to Paducah , Ky. They had 11 children , of the 11 children , Seven lived. Alexander died before 1900 and Sarah remarried to a WILLIAM LAZARUS POPE (could be Lazarus William Pope) Sarah Keller Burns Pope , died in 1929 in Paducah , Ky. I know this is sounding "mixed up" , but I am trying to connect Sarah Ellen keller to CHARLES PETTY in Massac Co., Ill . He would be her UNCLE. Does any of this sound familiar to anyone? Thank You Carol

Hello Everyone, This is my first post to the list, and it isnt a very good one. The reason being is that I am looking for my Calvin BLANKENSHIP without much to go on. I am sending this to the Illinois lists because I am thinking that since his wife was born in IL and her parents in TN, that maybe the Blankenship's moved from TN to IL, then to MO. Unfortunately I do not have last names for the women born in IL, but I figure that if I start shooting in the dark long enough, I will hit something. I estimate the Blankenship's migrating to IL after 1825. I found Calvin BLANKENSHIP married to DELIAH on the 1850 Texas County, MO census. Living next door to Calvin is WILLIAM BLANKENSHIP and his wife, PAMELA JANE. Since Calvin was only a couple of years older than William, I have to assume they are related, if not brothers, because they were the only Blankenships in TExas County at this time and they were both born in TN and both of their wives in IL (just thought that was interesting). SInce Calvin Died during the civil war (there is no record on him except a muster roll, since he was a confederate), he wasnt around when the government started asking where their parents were born. I followed Deiliah until 1880. I estimate her time of death between 1881-1883. I followed William, and he lists his parents as also being born in TN ..... although its a shot in the dark, is there anyone out there that has a link to a BLANKENSHIP's that had a son named Calvin, (who was born abt 1820-25) and/or William (b. abt.1823-1826). I do not have Calvin's parents names or their wives maiden names. I am hoping to connect them to someone who might be able to shed some light on this for me .... Thank you in advance!!!!

Barbara, A really 'sharp' guy would have pointed out that the second James Lawrence I listed was from the 1870 Federal Census for Massac Co. IL. I am not usually this sloppy but, I have my moments. I apologize for the confusion. Humbly, Dennis in Denver ;-))

Dennis: Thanks so much. Are there two James Lawrence's????? I appreciate you taking the time to respond. Barbara bnutty@ix.netcom.com

My name is Wanda and I am new to the list. I need help in locating my grandsons ancestries. Their father died when the boys were very young and both grandparents are deceased, so I don't have much to go on. Alva Willmoth was in Massac Co. IL. in 1910 he was married to Mary Heisner and they had one son Howard Glen Willmoth. Howard married Mildred Cox daughter of Z. Alpha Cox from Williamson Co., IL. they had a son James Glen Willmoth who married Sherriann Loomis they had three sons Geoffrey, Jonathan and Jeremy. The boys are getting interested in genealogy and want to know more about their Willmoth and Cox Family History. I would appreciate any information. Thank you very much, Wanda

Dear List, Anyone researching the STUCKER surname? I am related to John H. STUCKER and his wife, Elizabeth M. who are suppose to be buried at Buzzards Roost Cemetery, also known as Old Hall Cemetery or Mt. Olive per Volume two of the Massac County, Illinois Cemeteries. Their death record was not recorded. Was Massac County their place of death? What was Elizabeth's maiden name? Who were her parents? Does anyone have any information on their two daughters, Peggy and Susan E.? I descend from their daughter Mary Ann STUCKER who married George Washington WILLIS. John H. STUCKER was a Medical Doctor and Pharmacist. Any information would be appreciated very much. Thank you. John W. PEGG
