Cathie, Perhaps you didn't see that this is Death Record - File #1? There are many more to come when time permits in what we call Death Records - File#2. There are many Brown's listed in File #2. Even then we do not promise to have each and every death filed in Morgan County, one should always check with the Courthouse to verify whether a record is on file. We have thousands of these death records and it will take time to get them all online. Have patience :-) Mary Ann At 08:43 PM 02/01/2000 -0700, you wrote: >Mary Ann, > >I took a look at the death records and found one person, but didn't >find several others who I know died in Morgan County between 1880 and >the 1920's.

Mary Ann, I took a look at the death records and found one person, but didn't find several others who I know died in Morgan County between 1880 and the 1920's. They are mostly BROWNs (George W., Louisa, Franklin P., Minnie, James Herman, & Ruth to name a few). Any ideas why they're not there?

I received the other day a response to my Roll Call submission. It was on the surname of Mahoney, one of which I am researching. I mistakenly deleted that message. If the person that sent me the message will send me another message I will gladly answer. The question that you asked was about Mahoneys who were born in Sagamon County, IL. I think that there is a connection as I have Mahoney relation born in that County. Jim Ryan

Is anybody at this site working on either surnames Palmer or Stark in the 1800's ? I ahve very little info on my Stark/Palmer. I have only what came off of their daughters marriage certificate. They are the paernts of Anna (Annie) Jane Stark who married Thomas Ambrose Wilkinson. Anna Jane Stark was born in New Berlin, Ill on December 25, 1871. Her parents were John (Milton) Stark born in Jacksonville and Mary J. Palmer born in New Berlin, Ill. Can anybody tell me anything helpful about these places or surnames that may give me a clue as to where to look next ? Judy [email protected]

Thanks, Linda, I am looking forward to seeing your New Morgan page. And, yes, between the two Web pages, Morgan and surrounding Counties will certainly benefit as Shirley has endless resources available and a strong desire to get them online :-). Many thanks to her for sharing and for all her hard work. I have just upload the "B" surname to Some Morgan County IL Deaths. Go to Home page at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ilmaga/index.htm and click on Death Records. And may I say, I just received a most appreciated note of appreciation from one of Morgan Subscribers, thanking us for all we have made available for researchers. Always nice to get a "pat on the back", keeps ones fingers busier than ever on this keyboard. Mary Ann At 08:36 PM 01/29/2000 -0600, you wrote: >Hi Mary Ann, > >The new site looks good!

Hi Mary Ann, The new site looks good! I meant to respond earlier but I am so far behind! I'll be uploading the new ILGW page very soon and I have a link to your new site on it. Remember the old saying 'the faster I go, the behinder I get.' that applies perfectly to my life right now. I've always tried to treat the Adams County page to some great new info at the beginning of each month and that, along with end of month duties at work has slowed me down this week but I'm hammering away this weekend and I'll be in good shape by Tuesday! The Morgan County researchers are going to be really happy with all the new info on our sites these days!

A couple of questions for the EXTREMELY knowledgable Morgan Co. folks! 1. NERGENAH Cem. records show Susan F. NERGENAH d. 1904, death certif. not recorded at the Courthouse in Jacksonville. 2. NERGENAH Cem. records show Nancie THOMPSON d. 1874, obit did not appear in the Jacksonville Journal. Is it possible that a death certificate is recorded elsewhere in IL? What newspapers served the areas of Concord/Meredosia c. 1904, where I could check for notices of death? Ideas?! Suggestions?! Sincerely, Becky

Is there anyone researching the family of AUGUSTAIN BRYANT and/or his siblings. He married Malissa A. EASLEY. Both were in Marion / Wayne County, IL earlier. Augustain's parents were James T. BRIANT and Rachel ALDERSON (99% sure of her). Thanks a bunch! Mary in OK Mary Bryant Park [email protected]

Arleta-- Sorry, I don't know much about Wm. C. Johnson. From the 1850 census in Marion Co., IA, he was born about 1810 in VA, and he must have had two children from a previous marriage, Hiram born c 1838 in KY and Amanda born c 1840 in IL. It would be nice if this was a lead to where Wm. and Eliza Jane went after 1850. Where did your Johnsons come from and go to?
