I have Anderson and Grove ancestors that came from Greene County, PA via Meigs County, Ohio and ended up in Wayne County, Illinois. Richard and Mary Grove Anderson moved from Greene County, PA to Meigs County, OH around 1839. Mary's parents Samuel and Elizabeth Campbell Groves and most of their children also moved to Meigs County, OH. Samuel and Elizabeth stayed in Meigs County, but most of their children with their families moved to Wayne County around 1853.

Excuse me, but one more time.... Although interlibrary loan service has been resumed for the "Illinois State Historical Library," the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and museum is not yet open. So don't jump in your car and drive there to see it! Below is the website for the Presidential Library and museum should you wish to follow the progress of the construction of the Presidential Library and Museum. www.alincoln-library.com Per the website: When is the Presidential Library scheduled to open? The Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library will be available in early summer 2004 for staff to begin moving the collections into the building. The library will open in the Fall of 2004 once the various collections have been relocated. When is the Presidential Museum scheduled to open? The Abraham Lincoln Presidential Museum, currently under construction, will open in early 2005. Jeanne

Here a blurb from the Illinois Historic Preservation Agency website regarding the two libraries. The Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library is the premier repository for materials relating to the history of the Prairie State. The ISHL was created in 1889 by the Illinois General Assembly, which charged the new library with collecting and preserving "books, pamphlets, manuscripts, monographs, writings, and other materials of historical interest and useful to the historian, bearing upon the political, religious, or social history of the State of Illinois from the earliest known period of time." A century later the Illinois State Historical Library continues its mission under the new Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library. The Library is a public, non-circulating research facility that contains material on all aspects of Illinois' history. Particularly noteworthy are the Library's holdings in published resources, manuscripts, newspapers, audiovisual, and Lincolniana. The Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library is a division of the Illinois Historic Preservation Agency. In addition to the Library, the Agency oversees state and federal preservation programs in Illinois and manages 58 state-owned historic sites and memorials. That's all, folks. Jeanne

NOTICE: Interlibrary loan services have been resumed by the "Illinois State Historical Library" in Springfield. The Historical Library, the oldest institution devoted to the study of Illinois history, has moved all its collections and is now housed in the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library. According to the IHPA website, evidently the Historical Library is now called The Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library. Their notice that interloan services would be suspended this summer through sometime in September begins with "The Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library (formerly the IL State Historical Library, OCLC symbol JFK) will suspend its interlibrary loan services effective July 6, 2004 to prepare the collection for moving to the Presidential Library....".

Does anyone have ancestors who emigrated from Greene Co., PA, to Wayne County? Jeanne

I have Margaret Stevens b. in Vinton County, Ohio and marrying William Carson b. abt 1820 Tipperary Ireland. This from the Death certificate of James Alfred Carson, father : William Carson born in Tipperary, Ireland. Margaret was the daughter of James Stevens, Jr. and Rebecca Webb of Maryland. Rebecca and James Stevens both died in Vinton County, OH. Margaret and William came to Wayne County around 1850-1853. Her brother, Alfred Stevens also came to Wayne County. Alfred married Belinda Drake in May 27, 1828 Hocking County, OH. Also her sister Rhoda Stevens who married Joseph Carson came to Wayne County, IL. I hope this helps. Candee Hoff

While I was looking at the Military Records for all eligible men in 1862 for Wayne County I ran across a ton of Halls and have listed them according to the number and township. The families tended to register in some family sequence.

Hi Bettie. Nice to hear from you. I don't write much to the geneolgolical address. the letter from "the Hensons" is my cousin on the Spalding side. She lives in St. Louis and has done a lot of research on the family. I have a favor to ask of you that has nothing to do with family history. Could you find out if Bill Garrett--he lives on Deleware St.--is still alive. Thanks And if you ever get any more information on my family, that isn't in your book, I would appreciate it. You do know that you can go to any LDS Stake Center, totheir Family History Center and get FREE access to their records. I don't know where the nearest one would be--probably St. Louis. If you are interested, I could find out for you. Hope to hear from you again. Allen --- bettie wheat <bw29@wabash.net> wrote: > Allen > Was suprise to see you name. Your cousin down the > line.

Wayne County Researchers, I am hoping someone can help me figure out the relationship of the Book and Cable families for a cousin of mine. I start with Verca Amanda Cable b 3 Nov 1899 d 14 Dec 1998 who was married to my grandmother's brother, Wilmer Herbert Butler. Verca was the daughter of Frank Lincoln Cable and Mary Book. Frank and Mary had a total of 10 children: Verca, Ross, Cloyd, Ralph, Fanny, Raab, Vera, Vivian, Claire and Vern. According to the 1884 Wayne County History book, it looks like Frank L. Cable is the son of A.M. Cable. It also look like Frank L (Lincoln) Cable married Mary Book but which Mary Book? His brother William E. Cable married Mary J. Book, daughter of Michael Book. Anyone know more about these two famililes? I am guessing Michael and Samuel H. Book were cousins but it's kind of confusing from the bios in the 1884 Wayne County History book which I've included below. Can anyone help me sort out these two families? Verca's granddaughter sent me her obit and funeral notices so I have "proof" of her parents and siblings names from this document. Sandy A. M. CABLE, farmer, P. O. Boyleston, born in Athens County, Ohio, on November 22, 1829, and is a son of George and Susannah (Johnson) Cable ; the father is a native of New York, and the mother of Pennsylvania. He is the oldest of five children, of whom all are living. His education was received in the free schools of his county, and at the age of eighteen he commenced learning the wagon-maker's trade. At that business, however, he only worked about two years, and then commenced selling goods at Wilkesville, Ohio, for Dr. W. C. Kline. After being engaged in that business for a number of years; he taught school for about four years, and then in 1865 came to Wayne County, Ill. Here he first settled at Fairfield, but only remained a short time, and then purchased a farm in Jasper Township. On that place he lived five years, and in 1870 he came to his present farm, where he now has 290 acres. It is located in Sections 16 and 30, of Township 2 south, Range 7 east, and of the whole there are about 170 acres in cultivation, and about six acres in orchard. He also does something in stock-raising, handling the Durham breed mostly. Mr. Cable was married, in Meigs County, Ohio, on May 3, 1857, to Amanda Lasley. She was the daughter of Jonathan and Mary (Hickle) Lasley. The father was a native of Pennsylvania, and the mother of Virginia. This lady was born June 13, 1837, and is the mother of three living children—William E., born April 28, 1858 ; Frank L., born October 30, 1860 ; Jonathan B., August 23, 1866. Subject was a soldier in the late war. He enlisted in Company M, of Eleventh Pennsylvania Cavalry, on August 9, 1862, and was out until June 20, 1865. Among the battles in which he participated were Newport News, Lee's Mill, siege of Suffolk, Franklin, Va., Mangohick Church, Va., Jackson, N. C., and Ream's Station, Va., besides many other smaller skirmishes. Mr. Cable has served in many offices of trust in his county and township. From 1873 to 1877, he served two terms as County Treasurer. While a resident of Jasper Township, he served as Township Trustee and Clerk, and- since he has been a citizen of Big Mound Township has served as School Trustee and Highway Commissioner. Mr. Cable is a member of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church, and in politics is identified with the National party. MICHAEL BOOK, farmer, P. O. Boyleston, is one of the oldest native born citizens in the county. -------------------------- He was born in Mount Erie Township on October 15, 1823, and is a son of Michael and Sibby (Franks) Book. The parents were born in Fincastle, Botetourt Co., Va., and were of German descent. The ancestors came from that country some time prior to the Revolution, and the great-grandfather of our subject was killed in that conflict, and up until a few years ago, the musket used by the grandfather, who was also a soldier there, was kept in subject's family. It is said that the grandfather was one of the guard that took charge of Maj. Andre after his capture, and was with him up until his execution. After the war had closed, this Revolutionary hero came to Henderson County, Ky., with his family, and there died at a good old age. The father of our subject grew to manhood in Kentucky, and then came to White County, Ill. In 1821, he, in connection with the Ramseys, Nisbits, and Streets, built a pirogue, and came up the Little Wabash as far as Mount Erie Township, where they settled. In 1822, Mr. Book went to Shawneetown, Ill., where he married, and then returned to Mount Erie Township, where he resided for fifteen years, and then came to Big Mound Township, where he died in October, 1858 ; his wife died in 1835. Our subject was the oldest of five children, of whom three are now living. His education was received entirely in the subscription schools of his county, but since his growth to manhood he has added quite a good deal to his information. He helped on the home farm until he was twenty-four, and then, on December 26, 1849, he came to the farm where he has since resided. He now owns 280 acres, eighty of which are in Section 17, forty in Section 16, and eighty in Section 21, of Town 2 south, Range 7 east, and eighty acres in Arrington Township. Of the whole, there are about eighty acres in cultivation. In Big Mound Township, Wayne County, on December 6, 1849, Mr. Book was married to Elizabeth Gaston, a daughter of Cyrus and Margaret (Clark) Gaston, natives of South Carolina. This lady was born in this township on May 28, 1828, and was the mother of seven children, five of whom are now living—Sibby, Nancy (wife of Wilson Sager), Mary J. (wife of William E. Cable), George W. and Ira O. MrBook died on March 10. 1876. Mr. Book is a member of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church. He has served as Justice of the Peace, Supervisor, School Trustee and Director and Township Treasurer. Is independent in politics. SAMUEL H. BOOK, SR., farmer, P. O. Fairfield. From one of the first families of this county the gentleman whose name heads this sketch is descended. ---------------------------------- He was born in Henderson County, Ky., nine miles from the Red Banks, on September 15, 1825, and is a son of Henry and Sarah (Miller) Book. The father was born in Fincastle. Botetourt Co., Va., and at the age of fifteen he commenced to learn the trade of a hatter, from a man by the name of Rudizell.This trade he afterward followed for some years. At first leading a roving life up and down the Mississippi, but finally in Christian County, Ky., he married his wife, and settled down. He lived in Kentucky until October, 1831, when he came to Wayne County, Ill., and settled in Lamard Township. There he followed the hatter's trade for one year, and afterward turned his attention to farming, and followed it until his death, on February 28, 1853. The grandfather was a native of Germany, and died in Virginia on March 27, 1815. Subject was the seventh of nine children, of whom only four are living—Harriet, wife of James Keen, of Hickory Hill Township; Michael, in Lamard Township ; William, in Texas, and S. H., Sr., our subject. His education was received in the subscription schools of ye olden time, and he lent a helping hand on the home farm until about twenty-five. He then settled on the farm where he has since resided. Here he now owns 200 acres, 120 of which are in Section 4, and eighty in Section 29, of Township 2 south, Range 7 east. About all the land is in cultivation, and about two acres in orchard. In this county, on April 1S, 1850, Mr. Book was married to Mary Book, his cousin, and a daughter of Michael and Sibby (Franks) Book, who were also settlers of this county, and were natives of Virginia, being descended from old German stock. This lady was born in this county on February 21, 1829. and to her have been born three daughters, viz.: Sibby F., wife of Samuel Sager, of Big Mound Township ; Louisa, wife of A. R. Johnson (noticed in another place), and Mary, who still remains at home. Both Mr. and Mrs. Book are members of the Missionary Baptist Church. Mr. Book has kept aloof from political strife and office-seeking, giving most of his time to his own affairs, but as far as his support has gone it has been given to the Democratic party. -- Sandy (Whalen) Bauer http://www.whalen-family.org "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, Champagne in one hand - strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO - What a Ride!"

Candee - My grandmother's half-sister, Effie L. McClure (b. abt. 1869 in Wayne County, the daughter of Richard McClure and Sarah Jane Campbell) married a John Henry Schroeder. I assume the marriage was in Wayne County. In 1904 I know Effie and John were living in Reno, NV. Rumour has it they moved to California later on. No one knows what happened to them in my family. I do have pictures of them so you could see what John Henry Schroeder looks like. I have just barely started researching this Schroeder family. So I know next to nothing. But I thought you might recognize John Henry's name since you have been researching.
