This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Lane, McDaniel, Agnew Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Zh.2ADE/1973 Message Board Post: I am trying to establish whether or not William Lane and Jane McDaniel are the parents of my gg grandfather Matthew Lane. William was born in NJ about 1804 and died in Unionville in Whiteside Co. IL in 1867. His sons were: Ezekiel Young Lane, William M Lane, John H(oneyman?) Lane. I think he might also be the father of Matthew Lane, born NJ, died in the California goldrush in 1850 (declared dead 1857). Matthew married Eliza Agnew in Fredericktown, Knox, OH in 1849. Their son, William Henry, is my grandfather. Matthew is listed in the 1850, Knox, OH census as a wagonmaker. Any help would be much appreciated.
