I also have a bunch of photos, some of Lizzie Thill Dickason in her younger days, photos of her siblings. My relation to the family goes back to Lizzie's grandparents, Charles Thill (who died in France) and Catherine Beaugendre (who came to this country with her three children and settled in Belvidere, IL). Joseph Thill, Lizzie's father is the brother of my gr.gr.grandfather, Nicholas Thill. Joseph and his family moved around a bit, always moving west, from IL to IA to KS and then finally to OK where he participated in one of the land runs. Lizzie (born Margaret Elizabeth) had siblings Charles, Katherine (her twin), John, Joseph, Minnie, and Marian "Annie". I would love to have copies of anything that you have and would be happy to pay you for the cost of photocopying. I'm missing a fair number of details on Lizzie's siblings and their children, so obits might clear up some of the confusion. I'm going to e-mail you copies of some of the photos that I have and would be interested in any info on the Jackson clan as well. I've only made one contact with a relative from this line. I know there must be come folks out there. I've researched the Thill line back to the 1600s in France, yet know nothing about Lizzie's mother, Minnie Heinrich. Do you have her obit?? Will send more via private e-mail. Best, Peggy Hoffmann
