Wm.Russell I am also related thry the Mitchell fam. which married into the Russell fa, .in Athens co.Ohio Rome twp. Mazilla Russell is said to be a dau. of Ruell and Priscilla Boyd,Russell,b oct.1825 Va(WV) she married Cyrus Mitchell b.ap./May/1825 Athens co.Ohio Rome twp. I am trying to find the dates info of Mazilla to make sure that her parents are who I and other have figured out if Ruell and Prisiclla Boyd Russell are her parents.I have gone onthe web looking for her in the different censuses but haven`t found her name only have found a Ma____ female,or her age.. Has anyone else wrote asking for her death info that could still be living in WV also do the Russell fa, maybe they know when and what of,and where she is burried. Mazilla and Cyrus Mitchell moved to Crawford co.IL Oblong twp. in the early 1870`s or very late 1869 from Jackson co.WV. 1900 censu shows Cyrus living with thier son (my ggGrt.)Geo.Washington Mitchell and wife Mary Francis(Fanny)Russell ,who is the grand dau.of Ruell and Prisicilla Boyd Russell.)they lived in Richland co.Olney twp. untill 1903 they all moved to Coles co.Matoon twp.IL.Cyrus died in aug.1906 in Mattoon and buried in Dodge grove cemt. in Mattoon. papers never mentioned Mazillas name in any way. so I dont know anything of her death, the Crawford co said she is burried in Oblong cemt. as are some of her childreen but they sent me the lists of Mitchells as well as Russells and she wasn`t on the lists. So I have 2 brick walls .I hope you can help. Thank you. my e-mail is; [email protected]
