Looking for any information
on Issac (born between 1830 - 1840, probably in NC) and Sarah Manlove Hiatt
(born 1806 in NC). They were living in Schuyler County, IL on the 1840
census and on the 1850 only Sarah and the children are listed, but in McDonough
County. Did Issac die and if so when and where? Their children were William,
Leatitia, Joseph, Louis, Thomas, Jane, Sewell, George and possible Enos
who would be the oldest if he belongs to this family. The children were
born between the years of 1830 and 1847 which would mean that Issac was
alive until at least then. I can not find any member of this family in
McDonough County on the 1860 census. Where did they go? Was it Iowa?? Any
information would be greatly appreciated.

it in person, or re- motely. AND QUERY #2, where's the most likely place
to find divorce records of that period and area? Oh, I may as well look

in 1872 Alexander's oldest daughter Eliza married Harrison Reed in 1839
in Shelby Co., OH. My Reed's were in Schuyler Co., IL (Littlton and Brooklyn
townships), from 1845 to 1860's. My G.G. Grandfather, Harrison Reed b.
1815 in Virginia, d. 1885 in Kansas. His older brother Nathan was born
about 1812 in New York, last known whereabouts 1860 in Knox Co., IL, and

Dora D. Covey was born 26
Sep 1856 at Rushville, Schuyler, Illinois. There is very strong evidence
that she was a carrier of a rare genetic disorder called "X-Linked Juvenile
Retina.Schisis." I don't know which of her parents she got it from. She
was their only child. This condition is degenerative and causes legal blindness
in males before age 40. Because of its rarity, it is often mis-diagnosed.
If you have ever heard of blindness or poor eyesight running in the following
families, please contact me. COVEY of Schuyler & Pike counties, Illinois.
CARLOCK from Tennessee & of Schuyler county, Illinois. TRACEY of Fulton
& Schuyler counties, Illinois.

I need help sorting out
the Reason PRATHERs who were in Schuyler Co., IL. Can anyone tell me the
age of the Reason PRATHER who died 24 Jan 1846 in Schuyler Co.? He left
a widow, Lucinda VINEYARD PRATHER, who he had married 14 Mar 1838 in Schuyler
Co. She was a daughter of George Vineyard of White Hall, Greene Co. Was
he: 1. the Reason PRATHER who was born in VA in the 1770s, married Sarah
M. RAY (dau. of John RAY) 1799 in MD, then after she died married Nancy
COCHRAN in Fleming Co., KY? 2. or, Reason PRATHER, the son of the above
named Reason, born around 1810 in KY? 3. Which Reason PRATHER married Nancy
Lavina SALISBURY 27 Apr 1831 in Schuyler Co.? Am quite sure that he was
not Reason PRATHER (son of Darius & Caroline TACKETT PRATHER who lived
across the line in Fulton Co.) and whose first wife was Rebecca O'Donnell
and second wife was Zilpha Rebecca PARKS.
