I just joined the list and wanted to see if anybody has any connections with: John A. Hughes and Isabella M. Lynchard who were married in Sangamon county 1863 according to the Illinois Marriage Index. They also had a son Charles Henry Hughes who was born sometime in 1864 I am assuming in Sangamon County. Are there any birth records anywhere for 1864?(since I realize the fire destroyed most records) Or would the census be the best place to look? Marilyn Oregon

Posted on: Sangamon County, Il Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Il/Sangamon/1636 Surname: Bacon ------------------------- Sangamon County, Il Oak Ridge Cemetary I need the names and dates from my family plot in Oak Ridge Cemetary.

While going 'through' my mothers things a few weeks ago, I found a baby picture that was taken at Scibird, Atlanta, Ill. and on the back she had written Wiesenmeyer?? - looks like it was taken in mid 1880's - but not sure - anyway, it is OLD. It is the kind that is hard cardstock and could have been taken during Xmas holidays as it looks like a scroll with berries at edges. It looks like a blond haired boy not quite a year old. I know there are/were a lot of Wiesenmeyers in Springfield. Mother had told me at one time, that her parents ran around with Wiesenmeyer in late 1890-1920 in Spfld. Since my mothers dads father(her grandfather!) was born in Atlanta, Ill. I'm thinking it might be possible both families were from there prior to moving to Spfld. She also thought her grandmother may have been related somehow with them and thought her name was Annie Baer/Behr, etc. Is anyone searching Wiesenmeyers in that area - Atlanta or Spfld.
