    1. WILMINGTON/RUSSELL query
    2. Hi, Everyone; I have a query I'd like to bring up from a friend here in Florida. Anthony O. RUSSELL, who married Helen GREEN in 1858 in Cincinnati and James W. WILMINGTON, who married Frances H. FANNING in 1856 in Cincinnati were both printers working for the Cincinnati Enquirer, when they became involved as partners in the United States Playing Card Company. Both served in the Civil War (details have been obtained on their service). There is a connection to one or both these families to Brevard Co. FL. In 1896 a W.W. Russell (son? Willis) was involved in laying of track for the Sebastian & Cincinnatus RR. Need to know time and place of death of family members, where they are buried. They have been located in 1860 and 1870 census enumerations in Cincinnati. RUSSELL has been found in 1880, but not WILMINGTON. Anyone who has family information or any pertinent input on the above families might be able to help in the research. Please contact Pam Cooper directly at _cygne1@comcast.net_ (mailto:cygne1@comcast.net) . Pam is in charge of the wonderful genealogy department of the library in Vero Beach and is the past president of the Florida State Genealogical Society. You are all very helpful and I know she will appreciate any valid input or suggestions. Best wishes, Ann Bergelt
