Hi, Folks I'm looking for descendants of Thomas Edmonson who lived in Good Hope, McDonough County, Ill., where he was murdered March 17, 1882, by -- I'm sorry to say -- my great great uncle, Robert E. Gick, and his accomplice, my great grandfather, George W. Payne. According to newspaper coverage (in the Bushnell Record) of the murder and subsequent trial, Edmonson had a wife, Kate Morris Edmonson, and three children, including a son, Frank. He was a veteran of Co. I, 78th Illinois Infantry. Mark E. Dixon Wayne, PA alternate e-mail: markedixon@hotmail.com
