Hi Sue from Idaho. Thanks for sending me in the right direction. I did get a reply from Sue Tolbert. Judy

Thanks, Sue, for the information. Jonathan Corley could be one of two Jonathans I have in the line I'm working on. Sincerely, Judy

Sue from Oklahoma, this is Sue from Idaho. Would my Henry K. (K. Henry) Baines be a member of any lodge in or around the Tower Hill area? Didn't think of that till I saw this:} Sue from Idaho ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sue Tolbert" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, November 11, 2001 8:18 PM Subject: Re: [ILSHELBY] any written histories for the Methodist churchinTowerHill > Tiffany, I did not find any reference to Henderson or Salyer in my 1900 > Methodist Church directory.

I have so much Tower Hill information, pictures, newpaper clippings, histories. Is there enough interest out there for me to set up a Tower Hill web page???? Tim Casey, what do you think???(also, Tim do you have Gordon connections in Shelby co?) Sue in Oklahoma

Tiffany, I did not find any reference to Henderson or Salyer in my 1900 Methodist Church directory. However, I also have a History of Tower Hill and Vicinity by Homer Eiler that mentions J. W. Henderson as a charter officer of the Masonic Lodge #513 at Cold Spring, organized July 26, 1866. Hope this helps.

My dad had a cousin who lived in the vicinity of Tower Hill 70 or so years ago. His name was George Fankboner. Would you have any information on him. My dad died in 1931 and I knew little of his cousin thereafter. Any information you may have would be appreciated Charles H Fankboner

woo hoo! Success! James W Henderson is my ancestor. I know he was in Shelby County at that time too. :) Tiffany ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sue Tolbert" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, November 11, 2001 7:18 PM Subject: Re: [ILSHELBY] any written histories for the Methodist churchinTowerHill > Tiffany, I did not find any reference to Henderson or Salyer in my 1900 > Methodist Church directory.

Judy, First of all, what I have is a booklet (about 20pages)entitled: "Church Directory of the Methodist Episcopal Church; Tower Hill, Illinois, 1900" I don't find any of your names except Corley: Under "Church Membership": Corley, Mrs. Mary Under "Epworth League, Chapter No. 1584": Corley, Dr. H. S. Also in the booklet is information on the Zion M. E. Church. I assume that they met in the same building. Under "Membership": Corley, Jonathan; Corley, Harriett; Corley, Etta; Corley, Fannie. Hope this is helpful.
