Hello. I am new to the Sangamon County, Illinois mailing list. I am trying to search for the record of the marriage of my great-great-great grandparents, William Henry FERDON and Martha A. REDMAN, which I think happened in Springfield or other area of the county about 1839 or 1840. William Henry was from New York, and Martha was from Mount Sterling, Kentucky. Their first child, Richard was born about 1840 or 1841 in Springfield. My great-great grandmother was their last child, Margaret, born November 11, 1848. All of the four children were born in Springfield, but they moved to Woodburn, Macoupin County, in 1858. Pat Hansen

Hello, Would someone with access to the 1860 census please look up to see if their is a Maragret Brown as head of household in the 1860 census with five children? Thank you for your help, Charlene Swan Kes6135@aol.com
Hello List, Would someone please look up in the 1860 Sangamon County Census Jacob J. Brown and Emily Ralston. In the 1850 census Jacob J. Brown 25,was living with his widowed mother 63 at dwelling #1397/1397. Emily age 18 was living with her parents at dwelling #1400/1400. The couple married after the census was taken in 1850. The Powers book says they were the parents of seven children. I would like to know the names and birth information on these children. It might have been by 1870 that all seven were born. Any help given will be greately appreciated. Thank you, Charlene Swan Kes6135@aol.com
Jacinda, If you had a little more information, I might be able to help you. But I don't have any reference material for Sangamon Co., IL that late. Have you tried writing to the Sangamon Co., IL, Genealogical Society? They have quite a bit of material. Shirley
