Hello: Well, he bought 160 acres for $200 on December 15, 1856. You can get a copy thru the Illinois Secretary of State web site. Surname is Allaive. What I find interesting is that he is listed as a resident of Kankakee County for the 1860 Census. richard graveline Georgia ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, June 12, 2003 11:17 PM Subject: [ILSTANNE] Basilique Allaire > Hello, St. Anners!
