Hey, I will use the quiet time for my selfish family search. I am looking for any of the "Boyle" family that might have been in the area. My grandfather was born and raised in Shawneetown Illinois. I know this is Gallatin Co but since you are so close. Here it goes. Looking for any connections. Zinn, Lawler, Boyle, George, Robinette Christian Zinn buried Annie George Boyle in 1883 in the Zinn-Ozee cemetery. Also Thomas Boyle, who came from Ireland. Thomas worked for the Lawler's at his death. Thomas is also buried in the Zinn-Ozee cemetery. I believe William Boyle, husband of Annie, upped and left his two young children with the Zinns. He was never heard from again. I am searching for his death and burial. I think he ended up in Chicago. I would love to get in touch with the Zinn extended family and see if they have any info for me. I believe a Zinn married a Robinette. My grandfather George died in the Robinett home in 1945 in Illinois. Can anyone help me with this family. Thomas had two known brothers, James and John. I think they also ended up in Illinois. Thomas was born in 1814 and came over with brothers in 1847. Is any of this hitting any cords. Thank you so much for reading this saga. Dianne
