Surnames: Wilson, Steele, Black Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Rh.2ADE/428 Message Board Post: Looking for info on Wilson or Black families from Perry County, Ill. James Wilson listed in 1860 census with children Nancy, Mary Ann & Liza. Also listed in different household is son John. Nancy married William BLACK in Dec, 1866 in Pickneyville & John married Ellen Finney or Feney in Randolf County. James's wife was Sarah Steel but believe she died before arriving in Perry County. Also had children Jane, James, Andy & Robert but do not know where they went. James & family came from Ireland abt 1846. All children were born in Ireland. John served in Co. F, 80th Infantry during Civil War. ANY info on any of these would be GREATLY appreciated! I am hitting my brick wall here. email bkangaroo5@yahoo.com THANKS
