Carlene, thanks for the lookup. I do not think this is the same John. I am checking at this time to see if he was possibly married to a Mrs. Ann Carr of DeWitt. My john's father was born in Louisville, KY or Hart Co. KY abt 1815. I am going to check out the 1880 census again, as I thought I saw a Rosa Jackson living with John Reynolds family. She was listed as a sister-in-law. The only thing I know is that my gr-grandfather had a brother, John. I think Wesley was his middle name. I know he was born in KY, probably Louisvile in 1855. That is where his mother, Eliza, died in 1857. I just found it a shock that John and Rosa were listed as parents. Whoever the informant was for the death certificate of Sarah Elizabeth Reynolds Williamson probably gave the wrong info. After all, they had on it as informant, William, her husband, who died in 1919. Sarah died in 1922. I am going to try to get their obits shortly from Bloomington. Am going to write to "The Fort" to see if they can help. Do not mind giving a donation. May go through the Pantagraph, but will try "The Fort" first. If you could, though, I would appreciate a lookup of William Williamson and Sarah E. Williamson for the 1900 census. I have a city directory page for 1899 that says they lived in Normal. (Cherry St). In 1909, the lived at 411 W. Market St. Williams's death certificate (1919) shows they were living at 508 W. Olive. Sarah's shows 508 W. Olive, Bloomington, when she died in 1922. I want to see which children were living with them at the time. One daughter, "Ollie" can't be found anywhere. So, the 1910 census may have something on children born after 1900, such as my mother in 1904. There was Effie. Ollie, George, Dewey, Helen, Eunice, and Roy. Roy was not born until 1912, and was filtered out to a farm couple, where he stayed until he was 18 (or legal age). I do not know the order of births of the children other than what I mention about Effie, Ollie, Eunice, and Roy. Eunice being my mom. That may be spelled "Unice." Her sister, Effie E., lived with Stacy and George A. Hume in Wapella. Stacy was Sarah's sister. Effie was born in 1890, and Ollie (OLivia, Olive, Viola, Violet) was born either one year before or one year after Effie. Everyone always thought they were twins. Ollie died around 1917-1918 from flu epidemic. It is believed she married. On the back of a picture is the name "Lynth" or so it appears. There would be nothing in the IL Marriage and Death Index. Thanks for checking on John and Rosa. I will let that rest until I can find out some more info on them. I can't get Sarah's birth certificate as they had a fire at Crawford County courthouse which destroyed records. Sarah was born 24 JULY 1873. She is listed on James Daniel, her father as we thought, Civil War Pension Record, which her mother, Isabel filed for. I honestly believe it was a mistake naming them as her parents on the death certificate. Thanks again for your lookup. Really appreciate it. Shari It sure is cold down here in South Carolina!
