I'm really interested in your links but when I try to use them they don't seem to be working.

He could have purchased it sooner than that, though. It's a good clue, and it sounds like that's the father, but I'd want just a little more information before I'd say that he was the father of David S.

I have been trying to find out who his father was. In the Directory it says that D Huff Leaf River, Date of settlement 1846, does that mean he bought the property in 1846? Or that he came to Ogle Co in 1846. Because my David S would have been only 10 years old then. He did come to Ogle Co in 1846. I was hoping that maybe this was his father. David S did farm this land when he was older. > Hope to hear from you, Thank you, Jane Kittelson, Jane3b1G@msn.com > ----- Original Message ----- > From: bldnj74@earthlink.net > To: ILOGLE-L@rootsweb.com > Sent: Friday, May 05, 2006 8:17 PM > Subject: [IL-OGLE] 1872 County Directory > > > Hi List, > > Did you know that the 1872 county directory is on line?
