Tom: This is Mike Conners and I too have a Eli Riddle. My cousin Sue Larson and myself are the ones looking for Samuel Riddle or Riddell b. 1790 in Maryland. We have a Francis (Frank) H Riddle who was married to a Mary C in the 1900 census of we think Ralls Co. but it may not be. They have a Eli Riddle as a son and another one I could not make out but it looks like Ignatius? The census taker used alot of ink and he should have blotted it first, anyway they did have a Eli. Sue Larson's Francis (Frank) M Riddle was in Shelbyville Mo. but she said her mother mentioned someone in Iowa. We can't figure who this might be. I have a Edward James(Jimmy) Riddle who was in Macomb IL.and got into some trouble and headed for Burlington. This was my GGgrandfather Richard L Riddle's son by his second marriage to Sophie Bloodgood. Richard's first wife was Martha C Easton and she died between 1870 and 1880. All this is that we have a Eli and there is mention of someone going to visit relatives in Iowa. Mike Conners conners@jps.net ----- Original Message ----- From: Thomas L.
