I am trying to clean up notes and such on our Ancestry file, so that I might be able to web-publish the corrected and updated versions before the start of summer. Since the List has been rather slow lately, I decided to post this in case anyone is interested, before the web-publish. I encourage all who can, to submit their Roll Call of names they are researching. -- carol ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ANCESTRY ROLL CALL for Pope County, Illinois (as of Feb., 2006) for 20 generations ~ total 2,026 surnames: (no "S" on WALTER...."WalterS" family origin is TN, this time period) (paternal surnames)...........(origin of birth).........(birth year) *WALTER*.....................Pope Co......1906, 1876, 1818 *WALTER*....................Germany...1831, 1806, 1809, 1775 WATERS.........................Illinois?....................1885 WALTHER......................Germany............1820, 1858 SAUERESSIG (VINYARD)..Germany...........1819 RODEWALD...................Germany.................1809 HÜLSMEIER/HOLZMEIER..Germany...........1842 MÜLLER/MILLER...........Germany................1811 SCHUCHARDT...............Germany................1842 FOREMAN/FUHRMAN..Germany................1837 McCAUGHAN.................Tennessee..............1850 DIETRICH........................Germany................1844 KLINK.............................Germany................1845 AKRIDGE/ACKERIDGE....Tennessee...... ....1875, 1881 WILLIAMS.......................Illinois...................1884 NOEL................................Illinois...................1886 DIETRICH........................Germany...............1844 WERNER..........................Germany...............1844 BLATTER..........................Illinois...................1843 CASTLEMAN...................Illinois...................1865 BRAUDRICK....................Kentucky..............1875 BAUER..............................Illinois..........1851[moved to CA] AUSTIN............................Illinois....................1854, 1867 ALY...................................Illinois....................1862 CATES..............................Tennessee..............1867 RAMSEY..........................Illinois.....................1888 HALL................................Tennessee...............1850 MANSSEN.......................Germany.................1816 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ (maternal surnames)............(origin of birth)..........(birth year) SISTLER/SITLER/SIDLER/SISLER/SITZLER/SITCHLER-- from: Germany/Tennessee/Alabama/Indiana MAXWELL........................Illinois.....................1868 MITCHELL........................Tennessee...............1846 MOYERS...........................W.Virginia...............1790 McBEE................................Alabama.................1808 HOLLOWAY......................Tennessee...............1824 PATE...................................Virginia...................1780 DABNEY.............................Virginia...................1740 JONES.................................Tennessee...............1821 OSBORN.............................Tennessee............1785-86 DeHART...............................Kentucky................1820 HALL...................................No.Carolina.............1780 BAKER................................Kentucky?...............1873 HOWARD............................Illinois......................1877 EVITTS................................Illinois.................1873, 1875 SHADOWEN.......................Illinois......................1880 BELFORD............................Illinois......................1869 WILLIAMSON....................Illinois......................1898 BULLOCK...........................Illinois......................1899 PALMER..............................Illinois.........1859, 1889, 1904 LUNN..................................Illinois.......................1890 SCHUCHARDT...................Illinois.......................1867 THOMPSON.......................Illinois........................1908 BEEMER/BEAMER.............Illinois........................-00-
