Denise, The Rock Island Office for Naturalizations will not copy anymore Pages for Naturalizations. They said the books are in too bad condition. You can view them and write what is on them. Bev

Denise, If you found any papers for your ggf in the courthouse in Rock Island the others may also be there too. I would also try the National Archives in Chicago assuming he was naturalized in Illinois. The archives for that area should have all three naturalization papers on file, the Declaration of Intension(First papers), Petition(Second or final Papers), Certificate of Naturalization. Sometimes Bible records or other family records are with the persons packet. Apply to the National Archives under the Freedom of Information act. Jim Gillespie Fresno Calif D

The Naturalization papers for my great grandfather, Gus Riedell are dated 4 November 1892, state of Illinois. This record was found in Rock Island, IL, book 5, page 64. I am interested in obtaining copies of his Declaration of Intent and any other papers regarding his citizenship, which would add to the family history, Can someone aid me in the steps to this process? Thanks a bunch. Denise

Good evening In the Rock Island Probate cases I find the names Albert Howard and Lorenzo P. Howard which are both family names. Albert Howard did travel to Oregon in 1850 with his family however I cannot find him after the 1860 census, on that census both Albert are numbered, Albert 17 and Lorenzo 2. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Jacqueline

Julie, Thanks for checking. I appreciate you taking the time to look. What I'm looking for is William E. that had a sister? Effie Young with whom he lived in 1912 or at least I think it was her brother. Effie had a daughter, Kittie Hamrick, and I'm trying to find her whereabouts after 1911. I was hoping to find William E. Young's obit in hopes of finding where Kittie was and perhaps a married name for her. Thanks again.

I don't know what information you already have and what it is specifically you are looking for. BUT....I did take a few moments and looked up young Calvin Young in the 1870 census of Illinois. He is listed on page 305 of Henry Co, Burns Twp in the household of what appears to be Joseph Kemerling Joseph Kemerling 55 farmer Penn Lydia 50 Ohio Peter 28 Ill Elizabeth 14 Ill Joseph 9 Ill Calvin C. Young 29 domestic servant Ohio The age is a couple years off of the 27 that being born in 1843 would give us, but since he was an outsider in the house, either Joseph or Lydia probably gave the information and guessed his approx age....i.e...they knew it was ~somewhere around that age~! If you can give me some specifics of exactly what you are needing (up to 1880) I might be able to track some additional information for you from census data. Julie Bissell Tupker

Effie M? Young would be my great grandmother who was born August 22, 1873 perhaps in Bureau County. Her parents were William b. Aug 12, 1835 d. Jan 17, 1900 and Tryphena Hewitt b. Feb 1, 1840 d. Jan 25, 1908. William and Tryphena are buried in Forest Hill Cemetery in Wyanet, IL.

Looking for info on Calvin Young born appx 1843 who had parents James and Lucinda Young . Calvin had son Charles who married a Gilfillen and we know that they were around Rock Island, Moline, Peoria and later Quincy IL. Any info appreciated

I am looking for my Young relatives. William E. Young died in East Moline on 1942-08-02. Would anyone have access to his obituary? I am also looking for Effie Young who I believe is his sister. Effie's mother was Tryphena Hewitt Young. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Nancy

Do you have any dates to go with the names of the people in Rock Island County? If so we could possibly find some information but without an approximate date it is difficult to do.

Bev, Thanks so much, this is good information.

I am also researching Jones family in Mercer County. I have a Levi listed, but can't determine if his family is related to mine yet. Most of my Jones were in the Matherville, Aledo, Coal Valley, Viola, Preemption area. Some were in Bureau County. My Jones families all had large families, and it's hard to figure everyone out. I am researching Daniel and Ebenezer Jones presently. I am trying to find the information about Owen Jones and his brother Robert who immigrated from Wales around the 1850's. I have a lot of information, but there is still a lot missing. I am trying to find out if Daniel and Ebenezer were Owens brothers.
