Hope no one minds if I repost for our Morins. Will also try ILFORD, so please excuse me if your on both lists and get this twice. I'm planning another trip to Kankakee in the near future and would appreciate any research suggestions. (or info on Jacob Morin, or Leander Morin, since there's a good chance their related) They lived very close to each other. I've received several messages from others researchers who are stuck on these families also. According to the Kankakee, 1860 census, Jacob was 38, wife Adalade, 36, children: Carnel 9(?), Mary 5, Eliza 2, Eliza 8, (possibly not theirs) Leander Morin listed as 51 on same census. I was told Leander had a daughter, Victoria. His (possibly) 2nd wife Mathilde Brousseau. My husband's grandmother: Elizabeth Morin, b. Bourbonnais, Il., 1858, d. 1932 b. Mt. Calvary, Kankakee, Il. (m. Jos. Forgue) Her Father: Jacob Morin, mother: Adalaide Proulx married in Bourbonnais, Il. (I have marriage record) I need to find where & when in Canada, Jacob Morin and Adalaide Proulx were born, and their parents. Thank you, Holly http://community.webtv.net/Forgue/ForgueMore
