Matilda's birth year would probably be January or July of 1856. Her brother Eric, just one or two years earlier (1855 or 54) So I couls assume that he too was born near Winnebago County. I was able to track everyone in Illinios until 1900 and only Matilda until 1910. Thanks for any help or assistance. -K-
