Hello List, A couple of weeks ago I had the opportunity to attend the Genealogical Instutute of Mid America in Springfield, Illinois. It is 4-5 day program put on by the Illinois State Genealogical Society. While there I met two people who had interest in the Sacketts. The first lives in Salisbury Township a bit NW of Springfield near Petersburg and New Salem. Salisbury was originally Sackett Township and was changed in the mid 19th Century to Sodom then to Salisbury. She brought me information from some Sangamon Co histories on the Sacketts. A Claudius C. Sackett and his family and a Thomas Sackett and his. There is a Christopher Mosteller who married a Phebe Sackett. These families appear to have been in Ohio before coming to Sangamon Co. IL between the late 1820s and 1837. I would be happy to share this information with anyone interested. She also gave me a listing of those people buried in the Sackett (a.k.a. "Old Sacket") Cemetery. The Sackett Cemetery appears to be in Gardner Township which adjoins Salisbury. The second person is interested in contacting anyone who have Sackett connections to the Noble Family. Thomas Noble of Boston who m. Hannah Warriner and had a son John who m. Abigail Sackett b. 21 Sep 1663 and died 1682 in Westfield. This person is interested in Thomas Noble's origins. Can anyone help? Hope you all are having a great summer. Patty B
