It has been a busy week with all the action on the Vestal site. I have not been able to absorb all the data, but it has inspired me to really start looking hard on my Vestal line. My great grandfather was Madison Vestal born in Illinios. So I started going through all the counties in Illinois using the Censuslink site. I found his family in the 1860 census for Scott township in Olga County. Here is the Vestal family as it appears on the census report. J. H. Vestal age 41 born: North Carolina Farmer Mary Vestal age 38 born: Canada Children: George W. Vestal age 15 born: Illinois Emily Vestal age 12 born: Illinios Madison Vestal age 6 born: Illinois Freeman Vestal age 4 born; Illinois Nanbert W. Vestal age 1 born: Illinios Madison married Julia Lavina Green and they moved to Kansas where thrir children were born. Later they sold the farm and moved to San diego County, Californis where I found them in the 1920 census. At present I am looking for them there. If anyone can connect with the additions I have just found, please let me know. Thanks to all for a great week of Vestals. Wes Leiser Sunnyvale, California
