Linda & Robert; I am a descendant of Sis Camden also. My grandmother TrannieHancock Hill was descendant of Tranqouline. Robert,I'm not sure how your Hancock fits. I have information given to me from other family members.I didn't do that research on that part of my line. Vicki Odum will be happy to share info. ----- Original Message ----- From: <ILSALINE-D-request@rootsweb.com> To: <ILSALINE-D@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, June 29, 2006 1:00 AM Subject: ILSALINE-D Digest V06 #59

Hi! You folks have recently mentioned a family by the name of Hancock. Would this Hancock family be any relation to a John M. Hancock? First wife, Drusillann Blackman, second wife Mary Ellen Warren Carr (my 3rd gr grandmother), and third wife Rachel C. Renfroe. He was born about 1814 in KY. His first marriage occurred in Gallatin County in 1837. The children I have by this first marriage were John, George, Simon, Josiah, Jerome, and Benjamin. His second marriage took place in Pope County. The children I have by this second marriage are Charley Wade and Rosetta. The third marriage took place in Saline County. I don't have a record of children by the third marriage. John M. Hancock died sometime between 1873-1880. It seems that John Hancock's children tended to stay around Stonefort. Rosetta for instance married Willia Blackman in Saline. If you check the various censuses, you will find them counted in Stonefort township. I'm just curious if anyone is out there who might have a connection with this family, and if anyone might have had anything about the Carr family passed down to them. Thanks! Robert Schneider

I have some Hancocks in my Camden line, Martha 'Sis' Camden was married to George Hancock and Lived near Delwood,Illinois. The children were Luella, Pearl, Tranquoline, Barnett, Belle, Icy, Ina, and William. Would they happen to be in your line? My grandparents were buried at Bolton Cemetery, I had been taken there as a child and was told that it was in Stonefort. Is the cemetery in the village of Bolton?

That wasn't the way I sent it...looks like it opened up all the addresses for the various townships. But you can see the townships at the end of the addresses. Betty FL

If you look at the actuall family or house numbers it seems as though it is consecutive and then goes back after 3 pages or so to stonefort. It looks to me that this may have been a subdivision in stonefort. This is the only place i have seen this,.

I found a Joseph Russell in Saline Co. and would like to know if anyone out there is familiar with this Russell. He is married to a Nancy Jain Barnett in 1852. I wonder if he may be the same Joseph Russell who purchased land in White County in 1854-1855-1856. Any help would be greatly appreciated. JoAnn

Dear list, I noticed a Saline County book on eBay about Kobweb Corners. It is item number 9526539443 in case you are interested. I already bought a Volume II Pankey book from a genealogist who is paring down. Good luck! Karen Shields - Granddaughter of Lola Pankey, born in Saline County.

I am doing my Tanner side of my Tree. I have a Gillia (gilly/Geelee) Mahalia / Mahala Holdrfield first married to Stephen Tanner then to John Blackburne as my Great Great Grand mother. I just got research from an other Tanner researcher (Betty Renshaw) that shows numerous other Tanner / Holderfield marriages. Charles Tanner m. Matilda Holderfield (4 siblings killed by lighning) Ira and Molly Tanner married Holderfield Brother and sisters no first name given John Anderson Tanner m. Cordelia Tanner in 1894 John "red" tanner M. Jane Holderfield in 1863 I would like to find any information on any of there holderfields as i would venture to guess they are related and would love to show the links and trees for this family. I did not even see a Holderfield Mailing list on Rootsweb. Most all seem to be from the Saline County Area. You may see any additional information at www.parish-tanner.com There is a "latest changes" page and a Search engine, Blog, Guest book all on the site for you to use. So please feel free to check it out and use the featuress. Thank you, Parish
