I AM A COUSIN LEONARD FRANKLIN GARRETT
I am trying to find anything on my 2nd Great Grandfather George Eyler B – 28 Sept 1815; d – 28 Sept 1897 Rushville, Schuyler County, Illinois. ? Father Luther Eyler, Mother Dinah Eyler. Thank you
I am currently researching my father George Edward Knowles family. George Knowles ( born August 27, 1919 died February 9, 1998 )
is interned in Rushville Cemetary next to his wife of 47 years, (Grace Agnes Barnes Fowler born in St Pancreas London, England February 4, 1923 died in Tallahassee, Florida January 1992).
His father was George Hiram Knowles married to Edith May Bradbury Knowles (second wife).
Some of his family history would be in contents of Nina Poole (passed resident of Rushville) donated by her nephew Thomas Poole of Rushville.
Any help would be sincerely appreciated.
