HEAVILIN (Haveland, Hevlin, Hevelend, etc.) Never in my life have I seen a name spelled so many different ways. In his Last Will and Testament, written in 1908, the attorney who had wrote it repeatedly spelled the name as Heveland while Jackson signed it as Heavilin. His tombstone in Greenwood Cemetery reads J. E. Haveland. Various newspaper articles and his obituary show his name as Heavilin and occasionally as Hevlin. Nevertheless, I know these things about him: He was born in Ohio in 1933, he married Sarah Ann McClary in Indiana in 1856, he served in the 89th Indiana Infantry in the Civil War. He and Sarah moved to Chautauqua County Kansas in 1885 where he was owned a farm. He retired from farming and built a house in Sedan, Kansas and died there in 1909. He is buried in the Greenwood Cemetery, Sedan, KS. His daughter Elmira Belle Heavilin was my great grandmother. She married a Wi! lliam D. Copple. If you are interested and think this is your Enoch Jackson Heaviline, please let me know and I can pass along some documented information if you like. I am interested in going backwards from them now as I know most of the information from the time they moved to Kansas. Thank you in advance for any help you can give me. Linda Beason
