Are there any records of Saline County residents who left the county in the 1850s and migrated to California? My GGgrandfather, John Howard (who was the first sheriff of Saline Co. ) left there in the Spring of 1854 and traveled to California and settled in Quincy, Ca (named for Quincy, Il. I am wondering if there are any records of others who might have done this at about the same time. Del Perry KD6ZUW Portola, California
These Immaculate Conception Church records of Kaskaskia have a Warren Gibbs, father of Abraham Gibbs, natives of Vermont, dated 1832.

Steve, Cornelius Baker (b. 1840) and John W. Baker (b. 1865) are both on the virtual cemetery website from Harrisburg. You may have already found those. I live in Memphis so my trips to Harrisburg are somewhat sporadic and not usually planned. Perhaps someone else out there might have the occasion to photograph the Rice (Baker) cemetery. I have hoped that others would begin contributing and thus more folks would be helped. Lynda SSpunk@aol.com wrote: Lynda I believe you, lol, me & computers just are not seeing eye to eye lately !

Try searching by Harrisburg as the city where the cemetery is found. I have posted over 100 tombstone photos for Sunset Hill and Liberty Baptist Church. Also try searching by last name or by cemetery name. I have posted several tombstones for Brushy Baptist Church, Walnut Grove Baptist Church, Ledford Family Cemetery, Rann Cemetery, Moore-Vinson Cemetery, and misc. others. Mostly I have photographed and posted tombstones for the Dorris', Stiff's, Ledford's, Evans', Boatright's, and several others. When I am out photographing my family, I try to photograph as many neighboring tombstones as my memory card will hold. For some reason, there is a glitch when trying to search by Saline Co. as a location site for the tombstone. Trust me though, I have posted well over 100 photos to various tombstones out in the county. Lynda SSpunk@aol.com wrote: In a message dated 7/10/2006 3:01:44 A.M.

There are a few hundred tombstone photos from Saline County on the Virtual Cemetery. More are being added regularly. Search by surname or search by location. I do both to insure finding the records that are present. Here is the link to the Virtual Cemetery is you have never visited it. http://www.genealogy.com/vcem_welcome.html?Welcome=1088326429 I hope you will find some of your family but if not, keep checking back. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
