Thanks Bryn, I don't even know if my guy was in Ogle Co. in 1870, he enlisted in the Civil War from there, but by 1880 was in MO, so I may just be spinning my wheels. But it's so frustrating not to be able to read it and know one way or the other. Jeannie ---Brian Hulleberg wrote: > > Jeannie, > > I have tried both, and it is just too wipped out either way.

I hit send too quickly. For info from my grandfather's memoirs contact me at: rjarrell@ mrtc.com Linda

Good Morning, I went through the first 24 pages of my grandfather's book, "My Memoirs" which was printed and distributed at the time of his death in 1983. He has mentioned many people and places in Lindenwood and some other places. The following is a partial listing. If you are interested in knowing the story(ies) he has related to them, please send me a private EM and I will let you know what he had to say. Some are fun to read while others are sad: some people are related to me while others are not. Isaac PULLEN Hattie GIPSON William "Bill" GIPSON Mr. COOK, blacksmith , hotel owner Isreal CONFER John MUNSON Otto LENCE Frank JONES Mrs. GERITY & dau. Anna George HILL Oscar TALBOT LUFF & TALBOT store Mr. SPINK, Edna, Blanche, Ethel & Earl William & Ralph SUMMERS Mode HILL Ida & Crawford GIPSON Lulu HANNON from Rochelle Edward KNOLL Ervie GIPSON Will scan more pages and post as I am able. I hope this will help some who are searching for more than dates. My grandfather was a great story teller and wrote poems, too. My favorite, the story of Jonah and the Whale, told in a Norwegian accent is not writen down. Our loss. Well, let me know if I can help. Linda

The person who has spent time doing the family tree is a relative and shall remain nameless. I have a copy of "My Memoirs" written by my grandfather on my father's side, Earl R. WHITE 1890-1983. These were given to the grandchildren when he died. There is no copy right. In it, Grandpa says he was born in Lindenwood and relates many stories about growing up there. He is buried in the Lindenwood Cemetery. As I have said before, I will try to get time to post the names of the people he mentions. What I am looking for is information about his father's family. His father was William C. WHITE dob 1837. He moved with his parents from Lenox, NY to Lindenwood. William married an Annetta STRANG dod 1892 I know nothing of her family. My grandmother was Hazel RISEBOROUGH dod 1922. Her father was William. She had a brother named Purling. On the other side of the family, my mother's mother, Jesse Josephine THOMPSON, was also born in Lindenwood. Her parents were Inger Risting and Jacob THOMPSON from Stavanger, Norway. My mother's father was Royce Ralph KEESEE from Ellsworth IA. I don't know how they met. My mother remembers hearing that my grandmother Thompson's family tenent farmed of the Strang farm but we do not know if it was Anetta's family. Mom was really surprised that there could be a connection. So, as most of us have, I have many questions. I have information on descendants that I am willing to share. Linda rjarrell@mrtc.com

Dear Jeannie, Was down to the library today and asked our Genealogical Librarian about the 1870 census. He said that it is also poor here in Ogle too and there is no index here. However, he said you can rent or buy copies from the National Census Archives and be sure to ask for a "positive" copy. The positive is "white on black" rather than black on white and MIGHT be easier to read. Good luck!

Jeannie. I have tried to look at the 1870 Ogle co census. It is very hard to read. So I wrote to the National Census Archives, and the copy they had was just as bad. I normally orger my copies from them. They charge a little bit but it works, Most of my information comes from films, but if I see my direct line in a census record I will ask them for a copy also. It is on big paper and hard to file though. Bryn >>> <ILOGLE-L@rootsweb.com> 5/14/98 4:09:36 PM >>> Hello all, I am trying to find someone on the 1870 Ogle Co census.

How came I help share all this good information. Boy, this e-mail sounds like a mess. Some one tell me what I can and can not do to help. Thanks >> Hi, Bryn, As you have since found out on this mailing list....you can provide information for other people provided you don't copy entire books. Census records are public information. My suggestion? Ask people if they have surnames they are interested in. Then you can send them what you have. I believe you can still copy the information to the list. I know they do that on other mailing lists. That's the whole purpose of these genealogical mailing lists. For instance. I'm interested in Charles Fuller and his wife Sarah Cook who lived in Rochelle, Ogle County. Do you have anything on them? Mary Allen
