However, my grandfathers name, and his fathers name is Stanbery. My grandfather remembers that ChrisNeal was his Step grandfather (he always just called him Grandpa). He told me in the past few years he found out that Alsie had a son out of wedlock and that the Neal family gave him his name. This is were it get difficult: according to records Chris, Newton and Ruth were siblings. But on the 1920/1930 census Chris father was born in Ky, Ruths parents were born il (Alsie) and Newtons parents were born in United states (what does that mean). I would like to get a copy of Chris birth records and see what it states. Maybe his father was stanbery/mother Neal and for the times it was they just gave him Neal. Who knows. Maybe you can help me out. Barb Kleiva

Date of obituary should have read State J-R July 18, 2002 for Harold AIKMAN. Excuse my mistake. Louise [email protected]

An obituary appeared in the State J-4 July 18, 2002 for a Harold AIKMAN. I am trying to determine if this is my mother's brother, who was born between 1906 and 1915. My Harold AIKMAN was 4th of 8 children born to Jefferson AIKMAN and Jessie Louise (TRIBBY/TRIBBEY) in Sangamon County. Thanks for your help. Louise [email protected]
