Seeking information on the family of Hildegard A. Titus, and her husband, Alfred F. Gustafson. They were married in Rock Island on 10 November 1898. Hildegard died 2 November 1924 in East Moline. I do not know when she was born, but she was born in Sweden. I do not know when Alfred Gustafson died. I have no information on children. But, from what I have been able to put together from my great grandfather's funeral book, they had grandchildren. Their grandchildren were Ralph Gustafson and Vernon Gustafson. According to the SSDI, Ralph Gustafson was born 10 July 1928 and died 1 August 1993 in Moline, Rock Island County, IL. I have no informaton on Ralph's brother, Vernon Gustafson. Hildegard A. (Titus) Gustafson is the sister of my great grandfather. His name was John Emil Titus. His family also lived in Rock Island County for a period. Thank you, Zack Pasters

Hi all, The Alexander Dunbar's Moved to Rock Island Co. Mid 1850's from Trumbell Co., Ohio. I have some information of Alexander's parents and would love to exchange information.

Hi; There were two DUNBAR lines in Rock Island that I am aware of. Alexander arrived in the mid to late 1800's and Reuben (my line) arrived in the early 1900's. Which are you? Or are you from a line I haven't run across yet? Bob

Sorry, Jim, most of my Hodges were in Iowa. Flavia

Flavia, Do you have California Hodges? I have a David Hodges md Iris Gillespie abt 1925 in probably Kings Co. California. Jim G

I am curious what this message was supposed to be? I am interested in the name Dunbar..........Flavia Hodges JACKIE STEGEMAN wrote: > Surnames: DUNBAR > Submitter: JACKIE STEGEMAN ([email protected]) > Date: 19 Mar 2003 > > > > ==== ILROCKIS Mailing List ==== > ~*~*~*~ The Resources in the USGenWeb's Parade of States Awaits! ~*~*~*~ > -- Table of all States: http://www.usgenweb.org/statelinks-table.html > > ============================== > To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy records, go to: > http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237

Hi, I found another photo in my grandmother's album that someone may be interested in. It is labeled "1915 Football Squad - Dec. 2, 1915". My grandmother, Alice Bisant, went to Moline High School. So I am assuming that this is MHS's football squad. If anyone is interested in having a copy of this photo, please email me privately. Jean Heimburger Taylor

I found a photo in my grandmother's photo album labeled Mr. & Mrs. Fairlie. They appear to be a young couple. My grandmother was Alice Bisant. She lived in Rock Island County. If anyone is interested in having a copy of this photo, please email me privately. Jean Heimburger Taylor

Hello all Wondering whether the marriage records of Rock Island Co had any parents names in the 1840s-1860s. Have found these search results in the IRAD database, and am told I could get that record here: Western Illinois University (WIU) Illinois Regional Archives Depository University Library But I am wondering what will be on these records if i do get them, and whether anyone would be able to look up this info for me at the Rock Island courthouse or at the IRAD holdings at Western State University. Thanks, Casey WILBER, SAMUEL HOYT, MARY ANN 05/29/1862 00C/0015 00003964 ROCK ISLAND HOYT, ELIPHALET COVERT, MARIAH 03/05/1848 001/0094 KNOX
