I descend from Benijah Lloyd, Sr., who came to Mercer Co., IL, from Erie Co., PA, in 1835. Would like to share LLOYD info with others researching this same line. I descend from Benijah Lloyd and Elizabeth Dunn's son James Lloyd who married Catherine BURROUGHS. -- Helen Graves

On Hugh Maynes death certificate 7 Mar 1858 his wife Jane and a Thomas Doonan of Mercer Co., IL were appointed to administer the estate of Hugh. A relative wrote and indicated that her ancestor John Mayne (who was 24, living with Hugh in the 1860 census of Mercer Co.) was the son of Adam and Jane (Dinah) Doonan. I'm wondering if any of you have Doonan's in your research...I wonder if a Maynes married a Doonan? Thank you for all your wonderful help!! Trudy
