Is anyone on the list researching the family of Samuel J. Baird of Hopkins Twp.? I found the following in the 1880 census: 1 Samuel J. Baird b: 1825 in OH d: Aft. 1900 . +Eliza ??? b: 1828 in OH . 2 Homer D. Baird b: 1856 in OH . 2 Jay C. Baird b: 1858 in OH . 2 Otto J. Baird b: 1860 in OH . 2 Lee O. Baird b: 1861 in OH . 2 Lillie A. Baird b: 1868 in OH . 2 Mark B. Baird b: 1870 in OH I suspect that he is the son of James Baird and Mary Wilson, and is identical with the Samuel mentioned in the biography of James Harvey Baird that is posted on the WS County GenConnect site. If that's true, then he is the nephew of my GGGF, Robert L. Wilson. Wilson DeCamp

A very pretty wedding occurred last week Wednesday at the home of Mr. and Mrs. R.H. McKENZEI when their only daughter, Fern, was united to J.H. GILLETTE of East Moline. The ceremony was performed by Rev. F.H. DeVOLL, pastor of the Walnut Christian church and the beautiful ring service was used. The bride and groom unattended stood in a corner of the parlor which was decorated with ferns and flowers. The wedding march was played by Mrs. Maggie McKENZIE. The bride was very pretty and tastefully attired in a point de spirit lace over white messaline gown with a bridal veil caught up by a crown of orange blossoms, and carried a boquet of white rosebuds and ferns. Her travelling gown was an Alice blue crepe du chein with a black hat trimmed in bird of Paradise feathers, and a black satin messaline coat. After the ceremony hearty congratulations were tendered Mr. and Mrs. GILLETTE a fine two course wedding luncheon wsa served. The table decorations were white and pink sweet! peas and the same scheme was carried out in the dining room decorations. Only a few of the close relatives and friends were present, among them being, Mr. and Mrs. GILLETTE of East Moline, parents of the groom, Mr. and Mrs. Roy McKENZIE, Mr. and Mrs.Burke HURLBURT, Misses Ila DILLON and Eunice McCLURE, Mr. and Mrs. R.H. McKENZIE, Clyde McKENZIE. A number of nice presents were received among them being a check for a substantial amount from the brides father. The couple left the same afternoon via an auto to Sterling for a short wedding trip and will be at home after September 1 in Chicago. The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R.H. McKENZIE and comes from one of the old, prominent families of this community. She was born and grew up to womanhood in Tampico where she has made many friends who admire her many qualities. The groom is not as well known in Tampico but is a splendid young man held in high esteem in East Moline where he has resided for several years. At present he holds a responsible position in the big Pullman Car Works. The many friends of Mr. and Mrs. GILLETTE extend to them their best wishes.

According to the 1930 Fed Census, the marked was owned by Edwin S. Thomas. He had sons Kenneth, and Keith. Wifes name was Blanche. These people are distant relatives and I am interested in why they closed their meat market and where they went, if they left Morrison and if either son is still living or if there were more children.
