Surnames: Moore, Kirk, Mansker, Pearson Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/og.2ADI/284 Message Board Post: Looking for info on the above 2 people. Rosella was born 03/31/1882 and died 1945 in St. Louis, Missouri. I believe her parents were Helen Pearson and Robert Moore. Robert was the son of John Moore and Larancy Mansker. I understand the Rosella is buried in the Chester Illinois Cemetery.
I am trying to locate any info on this family who according to the 1880 census was in Red Bud. It may be my grandfather's family. The census has the following info: Name Relation Age Birthplace Occupation Father's Mother's Birthplace Birthplace William H. TOY self 39 LA Printer PA IL Mary TOY wife 29 IL Keeping GERM GERM House Thomas TOY son 8 PA LA IL George TOY son 7 PA LA IL Charles TOY son 4 PA LA IL Elisaberta TOY dau 1 IL LA IL Margareth Guker mother-in-law 67 GERM GERM GERM My grandfather would be the Thomas Toy listed here, and there are so many consistencies with other information I have that it seems this just has to be the correct family, yet there are some a few contradictions that make me question it. I'm hoping there might be someone else out there that has researched this family - either the TOY or GUKER side, that I might be able to get together with. Thanks!

Ma'am, Mary LOCKARD is in the Union Cemetery on Schuline Road about 2 miles south of Sparta. Her husband Peter is not listed although he may be there anyway. The cemetery index reads: LOCKARD, Mary, no date of birth, died 17 November 1866, wife of Peter, age 64 years, 8 months, 27 days [birth-date calculated to be 18 February 1802] Also in the Union Cemetery: LOCKARD, Albert A, no date of birth, died March 1875, 11 months old LOCKARD, Mary J, no date of birth, died 30 May 1882, wife of Joseph M, age 57 years. There are no other LOCKARD entries in the Randolph County, Illinois cemetery indexes. I hope that this is helpful to you. Miss Désirée de Nantes <[email protected]>
Hello, New to list and wondering if someone could tell me how to locate cemeteries in the Sparta, Ill. area. I am searching for a Mary Mains Lockard - believe she died in 1870 and is buried in Sparta. She was married to Peter Lockard and had a daughter named Lucinda, who married a Jermiah Michaels. Any help or direction to other resources would be of great help. Peter and Mary would be my ggggg grandparents!! Many thanks. Kathy [email protected]
Thought this might be of interest to you. I came to me through the Stewart email list. Doug The following article is from Eastmans Online Genealogy Newsletter and is copyright 2003 by Richard W. Eastman. It is re-published here with the permission of the author. Information about the newsletter is available at http://www.RootsForum.com. - Your Guide to Cemetery Research This week I had a chance to read Your Guide to Cemetery Research by Sharon DeBartolo Carmack. This book is a reference full of information about not only cemeteries, but also all other records created when a person dies. The book describes just about every phase of cemetery research. Chapter titles include: Records of Death Locating Graves, Cemeteries and Their Records Searching A Cemetery Bringing Home a Tombstone Legally! Cryptic Clues in the Bone Yard American Burial Customs and Folkways Ethnic and Religious Funeral and Burial Customs Cemetery Projects and Preservation Making Cemeteries a Family Affair The book also has several appendixes: Gravestone Art, Symbols, Emblems and Attributes Historical Time Line of Deadly Diseases, Epidemics and Disasters in America 1516-1981 Historical Medical Glossary for Causes of Death A Case History Using Obituaries as Family Histories Cemetery Transcription Forms The book also includes an extensive bibliography and an index. I must admit that my eyebrows shot up a bit when I read the title of the appendix on "Historical Time Line of Deadly Diseases, Epidemics and Disasters in America 1516-1981." I have an interest in pre-1620 settlements in North America, but I know that the year 1516 is a bit early. I quickly turned to that section to find that the author mentioned the "first major smallpox epidemic spread among native tribes in Hispaniola brought by European colonists." Hispaniola is now known as Haiti and the Dominican Republic. Many other epidemics are listed as well. I noticed that a cholera epidemic was raging in the northeastern U.S. cities at a time when one of my ancestors died at an early age. I think I'll go look at some newspapers of that city at that time to see if there is a mention of cholera being rampant there. I was especially pleased to read Sharon DeBartolo Carmack's advice on photographing tombstones. For many years, genealogists would fill tombstone engravings with shaving cream to improve contrast in the photographs. In later years, many people claimed that shaving cream has a low pH, which means that it is acidic, and will harm the stone. Still others launched counter-claims that only a few brands of shaving cream were acidic and also that the few minutes of exposure to shaving cream acid was far less damaging than the acid rain that falls on tombstones in a single rain shower. Sharon sidesteps the issuenicely by showing how to make high-contrast photographs without shaving cream. Why use it when you don't have to? Your Guide to Cemetery Research has many illustrations to amplify the discussions within its pages.Transcription forms in the back of the book will also help organize a trip to a cemetery. This 263-page publication is a worthwhile addition to your bookshelf. Your Guide to Cemetery Researchby Sharon DeBartolo Carmack sells for $19.99 and is available from most any bookstore. If the book is not in stock, most bookstores will order it for you if you specify ISBN 1-55870-589-9. I also found it on theWeb site of the publisher, Betterway Books, for $19.99 and on Barnes & Noble's Web site for $17.99. _________________________________________________________________ Protect your PC - get McAfee.com VirusScan Online http://clinic.mcafee.com/clinic/ibuy/campaign.asp?cid=3963

I have a marriage certificate dated 1871 that shows two individuals married in Chester by Truman E. Andrews, Minister of the Gospel. Does anyone know if Truman Andrews was connected to a specific church in the County? Thanks much Mary Park
Just FYI If you go to the USGenWeb Archives you can search by state. You can search any state or do a nationwide search -- maybe not the best idea as the results could be overwhelming. I also discovered, by experimentation, that is best to do a surname and given name search as the surname only search can be pretty overwhelming. Note this search is limited to the special projects of USGenWeb, does not include mailing lists, census and other archives.

Velda, These are people are all from my family. I wonder what happened to Rhoda Alice Temple born 04 Aug 1895 who was my grandmother's sister. I was told my grandmother, Mary Beatrice Temple, signed an affidavit so Rhoda could get her birth certificate. Also, their sister Margaret Jane Temple born 4 Oct 1898. What's really strange is that I have an actual birth certificate for my grandmother who was born before the siblings mentioned. I guess the doctor went the extra mile and reported my grandmothers birth. Thank you so much. How can I get copies of these delayed certificates? Dorothy in California These delayed birth records are available for TEMPLE, Robert Anderson Temple, 1870 Jessie May Temple, 1876 John Centennial, 1876 Daisy Willard, 1888 Robert Riley William, 1897 Ralph Emmerson, 1899 Write to me if these TEMPLE family members are yours.

While still NW Terr, the Co. seems to be KNOX. It became Randolph Co. 1795 and was such when IL Terr was established in 1809. Since IN Terr was est in 1800 and IL Terr in 1809, it seems to me that IN should have some records of the area. The first Census of the area, as IL Terr., was in 1810. What I suggest is that we not be limited to IL records. Best regards, Hugh
