Greetings all; I am looking for the parents of either, Nephi BROWN born 1842 in Ohio or Nancy HARPER born 1849 in Illinois. Hopefully someone out there can help me out. I did find them both living in 1880 and married on the Gridley Illinois census. Their marriage date was Feb 21 1864. By 1880 they had 5 children, Charles, Cora, Edgar, Manda, and Anna. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Mike and Rita

Is there a complete listing for all those buried in Park Hill Cemetery somewhere? Would like to find several relatives. I know they are buried there. Unfortunately, obits got thrown out years ago. I know this is a large cemetery. Any help apreciated. Shari South Carolina

Hi Susan, I have a couple short histories of Colfax and Colfax school on my site. Most of my family was also from that area so that's what I concentrated on. I also have the 1920 Colfax School Annual and it has pics of almost every classmate from elementary through high school listed. I have a few other references and I'd be happy to look something up if you let me know. Pam Haithcock http://members.tripod.com/~GenFamily/index.html

Does anyone on the list have any cemetery records for Empire Township??? Thanks Leslie Maurice

Pam, I am happy to say that I have received my 1920 Old Town census from Tammy. I hope you try to e-mail her. She may have problems with the one you are asking for. So, there is nothing wrong with her link for ordering them. Shari

Susan, I am not very sure about this, but I thought I saw a history at the Illinois Trails link close to one of the counties around Colfax. I am not sure exactly what county Colfax is in. You can try a "search" on History of Colfax, IL, and see what pops up. Shari

Hi Susan, There is a Great sight for Mclean County on the web by Pam, who is also on the list, and she has some history of the town of Colfax listed on the sight. If you havent checked it out you might want to. It focuses a lot of the smaller community's in Mclean County. the address is: http://members.tripod.com/GenFamily/index.html I have used the sight many times. Hope this helps. Leslie

Hi, I was wondering if there are any history books on Colfax? I visited the McClean County, Historical Society. They had one small pamphlet, on the history of the coal mine. My Great Grandfather, John Wesley Garner, owned the Hotel in Colfax, in the late 1880s-1890s. It was first called the Garner Hotel, and then he built a new one, called the Hotel DeGrande. After he died, in 1893, it was renamed, The Little Wonder, and run by a family named Tolbert. John Wesley Garner, was the school director, and the Justice of the Peace, at the time of his death.

Carlene, this is the obit for James D. Reynolds that I posted I forgot to put my name to it. I received James D's Civil War papers today. WOW. I am going to have to send one page to K. B Cook, as it is signed by J. J. Rolofson (he witnessed Isabel's mark when she filed for the pension). Thanks again for letting me know. Boy, did it feel good to get outside today!!!! 70 degrees here in Beaufort, SC. Shari

Pam, try e-mailing Tammy again. I know I was a real pain in the you-know-what when I was trying for the 1920 census. the only other thing I can suggest, is that I can do a little at a time and send you copies of it. She came through for me. Just give it another try. Something may have come up that has her behind in things. Talk later, Shari
