I am trying to learn more about my great grandfather, William Butler BISHOP, and am hoping someone on this list will be able to help. All that we know about him is that he was born in Hancock County, Tennessee in 1849, and moved to Rice County, Kansas in the 1870s, where he lived until his death in 1899. We also know that he was a teacher before he moved to Kansas and started farming. Does anyone know of any BISHOPs from that period of time that he might belong to? Is there anyone with access to census records for 1850, 1860, or 1870 who could look for him and/or his family? I'm open to any suggestions on how I might learn more about him! Thanks!
