Just found out that my ggggf,
Washington Irving ROBBINS, was living in Schuyler Co. in 1860 in the township
of Hickory and post office of Butlersville. He is listed on the index as
W.J. His wife was H.M. (Helen Marr ROBINSON Robbins) and their son
(my ggf) was Charles Harmon ROBBINS. There are 2 other people living with
him at the time...Mary KEEN who was 20 and John PURDA who was also 20 and
a laborer. I know that they also had a son born in 1858 who only
lived for a month. If anyone is researching any of these surnames, I would
love to correspond with you.

I am looking for information

and Emaline moved their family to Linn County, Kansas, where they farmed
for many years and where they are buried.

I am searhing for the John
Franklin/Sarah AVERY family. Their children were: Viola May born 1879;
Wallace born abt 1880; Violet born abt 1882; Arvilla born date unknown.
I have my grandmother Viola's spelling book published in 1893 and given
compliments of Roach & Ttetrick west side Sq. Rushville. In it she
has her name and Erwin, Il and Rushville Il in it. My fathers birth certificate
says Viola was born in Beardstown but her birth certificate was never filled
out so I do not know if this is right. I have a family connection with
the Ebenezer FRANKLIN Jr./Sarah Jane NORTHCUT that were residing in Schulyer
Co. On the 1880 census they were living next door to a Joshula Avery family.
I have a photo of a Joshula AVERY but do not know if these families are
connected.

Alva Arthur NICHOLS was
born in Roy or Ray, Illinois, January 30, 1870. His mother died when Alva
was about three years old. Alva moved to Fremont, Nebraska, to live with
an older married sister. Alva Arthur NICHOLS was one of the youngest of
about 10 children. Some of his brothers were: Charlies (the oldest?), Wesley,
and Frank. They lived in the Denver, Colorado area in 1941-1942. I am not
sure I am in the right county. In the cemetery book for Woodlawn Cemetery,
Ferndale, Wa., it lists Alva Arthur NICHOLS birthplace as Roy, Illinois.

We are trying to find information
about Isaac BELL from Schuyler County. We know this much: Isaac BELL served
in the Civil War. The records indicate that he was from Rushville,
Illinois. He was in Company A of the 14th Illinois Infantry.
His discharge document states that he was born November 26, 1843.
His occupation was listed as a farmer. We have a tin-type of him
in his Civil War uniform. Apparently after the war he moved to Kansas
where he married Julia WARD in 1870. They had at least seven children,
one of whom was my husband's grandfather, Charles Frederick BELL. Searching
for information regarding Isaac BELL's parents or additional background
on the BELLs. If you have any information on Julia WARD, that would
be very much appreciated also, although we do not know if she was from
Schuyler County or not.

Zimmerman 2 October 1999
Recently discovered old
family photographs of two family members identified only as "Grandpa MOCK,
Sallie DALES father", and "Grandma MOCK." Sallie Mock DALE was the mother
of Robert C. DALE. The first name of his father (Sallie MOCK DALEs' husband)
is unknown at this time. The photo of "Grandma MOCK" lists Rushville on
the back. Also found in the same box of photos is one of Robert C. DALE,
and a note indicates Rushville, Illinois as place of birth, which based
on date of marriage (1881) should be around late 1850's or early 1860's.
This photo also notes on the back that the C. "He choose, but had no middle
name."
The 1850 Census for Rushville,
Schuyler County, Illinois lists a Robert MOCK, age 26, b. Virginia, identified
as a laborer and living in the BAGBY household. This would make this individual
about the correct age with a birth date of about 1824 to be the "Grandpa
MOCK" who would be the grandfather of Robert C. DALE who married Nellie
FELLOWS in San Francisco, CA in 1881. However, have no connection or documentation
that this is the correct MOCK. Any help or leads appreciated.
