Surnames: Stiles Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/jdJBAEB/59.61.1 Message Board Post: There are a number of Stiles lines in IL, more than I thought in 1999. With a name like "Ezra" is your line a member of the CT Stiles line? Specifically mine moved from NY to Lake and Iroquois Counties and then to Cook County (Chicago). I am a descendant of Avery W. Stiles who is also from the CT line, which you might be yourself. We would probably be very distant cousins.
