In the index, it has a Joshua Meacham, William Meacham and a Jesse Meachem on pages 334 and 326 respectively. If anyone had access to the 1850 census and would tell me the rest of the information on that, I would be truly grateful. Thank you in advance for your help. William was born in 1844 in Marshall Co., Holly Springs. He moved to Illinois sometime after 1850 and married a Mary M. Steele from Ohio. If you are also researching this line, I will happily share any and all information. Thank you!
