As of now there are a kagillion Mills listed on census for 1870 and 1880. The 1800 IL census has a William A Mills with the right year of birth in Indiana (1856), living with a Joseph and Penelope Rouintree (spelling copied from census) in Franklin County, and listed as a Nephew. I found my G-Grandmother Connie and a William Mills in the 1900 and 1920 Franklin County IL census . I know it is them because of Aunt D. My Grandmother was born in 1882, the 1890 census is missing, and she was married 1n 1899 so I cannot connect her. I have not given up my search. Thanks to this board and the info passed on and the help given.
