    1. Re: [ILUNION] Cemeteries in 1851
    2. Betty Bohrer
    3. Rollins Henderson, on 24 April 1820, bought for cash two parcels of land in Union County at the Shawneetown Land Office. He, his wife Minerva, and their eight children lived there, probably in the vicinity of Anna and Jonesboro, at least until Rollins died in 1851. The children grew up, married and most of them lived in the same general area. Rollins' widow, Minerva, later married Hamilton Woods, and remained living in the Anna/Jonesboro vicinity. What cemeteries existed in that area in 1851 where Rollins might have been buried? Are there published lists of burials in local cemeteries for that period of time? Thank you for reading this query, and for any help you may offer to me. Betty Henderson Bohrer [email protected]
