I am a descendant of Jerusha, daughter of Miles.. She married Joshua West and is my gggrandmother. I have a copy of the descendants of Isaac Van Ornam. I assume you were involved in compiling this. Is anything known from what country they came from? The name sounds Dutch to me...Isaac served in the Revolutionary War, I believe. Is there a record of his military experience and perhaps his parents name on his enlistment papers? My family records suggests that Miles married Charlotte Russell.

Great Idea for a Roll Call. William PITTMAN (1810-1904). He married Amanda S. EADS (ca 1817-bef 1841) on 26 Jul 1837 in Morgan Co., IL. His second wife was Mary Ann JOHNSON (1826-1903) whom he married 8 Jul 1841 in Scott Co., IL.

Hi.. Thanks for the response. All the info that I have on your Starrett Coy is that he served with Co. I, 151st IL INF, he is listed on the Civil War Memorial in Jacksonville , he was born 23 Oct 1838, he died 25 Mar 1922 and is buried in Newman Cemetery in Meredosia along with his wife, Mary Lamb and probably, his son, Ulysses Simpson. I had a web page on Morgan Co.(and some Scott and Macoupin) Civil War soldiers for some time. I discontinued it when I moved and changed ISP's. I am looking to change ISP's again and hope to put it back up. I generally look for anything that I think other descendents would be interested in, such as a photo, anything of particular interest such as a diary, letters while he was in service, was he woulnded, etc. I would especially appreciate it if you could verify the information above, as I live in Kalama, Washington and don't get back to Illlinois very often.

Mari, Sorry, I don't believe so. Dotty

Norm, one of my ancestors, John B. GRAY, was a Civil War soldier who mustered in from Jacksonville. I have his discharge certificate from Morgan Co., and his service and pension files from NARA. Are there other possible sources of records that I could look for covering the time of his service? I'm happy to share any of his details that you may like for your database.
