I am seeking information about my grt., grt., grt.
grandparents. I have traced my grt., grt. grandmother, MARY ANN DANIELS
JACKSON HOGGATT, back to 1860. The 1860 Sullivan census shows her as
being 12 years of age and living as a "ward" of WILLIAM DANIELS and his
wife, SARAH A. WILBORN. I do not know who William Daniels was, but I
think it's safe assume he was related to Mary Ann Daniels. I think she
was probably also related to PHOEBE DANIELS HOGGATT and REBECCA MARTHA
DANIELS PUNCHES, who also resided in Sullivan during some of the years
1850 to 1880. According to family lore, the Daniels family was OSAGE
INDIAN. Does any of this sound familiar to anyone out there?

I am trying to find any members of the Davidson
family from Sullivan County, Indiana who came to Moultrie Co. Ill. I
know Elizabeth Davidson Booker came, but need to locate other members
of the family. Sullivan Co., Indiana had a court house fire in 1850 and
nearly all records were destroyed, therefor am busy trying to
reconstruct family genealogy. Any Davidson from Sullivan county will be
related, for they were descendents of Daniel Davidson and Mary Enochs
from Jefferson Co. Ky. to Carlisle, Indiana or George Davidson of
Jessamine County, who died there but his children came to Carlisle and
lived across the road from Daniel Davidson and wife Mary Enochs. Any
help is greatly appreciated and I will share information.

Searching for any information on Joseph Davidson born
circa 1810/1812 Ireland; he lived in Monroe Co., Indiana from 1820s to
1840s and then in Jonathan Creek Twp, Moultrie Co. from 1840s to 1880s.
He married Mary Bean in 1840 in Monroe Co., Indiana. It appears that
his father was Joseph Davidson Sr. who was listed on a land entry in
1836 in Monroe Co., IN. It is likely that Joseph Sr. was the father of
several children including Eliza Jane Davidson, born May 1, 1818 in Ireland
and married 1837 to Milton Fleener in Monroe Co. Their son was Dr.
Joseph Nicholas Fleener. I am interested in knowing the exact location
in Ireland that the Davidsons originated from as well as the name of
Joseph Sr.'s first wife and really anything else on them.

married 4 times: first to Margaret Clairage in Shelby County and the
next 3 in Moultrie Count: Salina Lee, Mahala Q. Montgomery, and Ida

DEHAVEN Jacob, Charles, Magdalena: In 1837-38 Jacob
and Charles purchased land in an area that later became Moultrie
County. They moved there from Ross County, Ohio with their mother, Mary
Magdalena about 1840. A family named Bowers moved with them. Jacob died
about 1846 and the DeHavens moved back to Ohio.I want to find where
Jacob is buried. About 1875 my grandfather, John A DeHaven, and his
mother moved to Moultrie County. Grandfather farmed near Sullivan, and
all of his children were born there. His mother, Melvina Knight, is
buried at Pea Cemetery. John Albert moved to Sedgwick County, Kansas
about1905. I believe that he first moved to Moultrie County becaus he
may have inherited land from Jacob or Charles. Locating Jacob in 1846
will help prove this.

Would there be any researchers out there that would
be familiar with or have information on DRAPER Families that resided in
Moultrie County during the time frames of 1870 to the early 1900's? My
2nd G-Grandfather William WEBB had a son by the name of Reuben H. WEBB
that married a Letha DRAPER in Moultrie County on 1 January 1872. In
June of 1895, a first cousin to Reuben by the name of Alvira
WEBB-ELDRIDGE-HILLIARD applied for a Civil War Pension in Moultrie
County from a late husband. Friends by the name of Travis D. (age 67)
and Sarah M. DRAPER (age 61) wrote affidavits for her. It is said that
these DRAPER's were well acquainted with Alvira and her family. There
was a Travis D. DRAPER that was a Corporal in Co. K, 14th Regiment,
Illinois Infantry during the Civil War according to the Historical
Encyclopedia of Illinois and History of Shelby County. Somehow I feel
there has to be a connection between Letha and Travis D. and Sarah M.
DRAPER. Any help from DRAPER researchers would be sincerely appreciated.
I have considerable WEBB information to share if any one has a
connection and is interested.

I am the great grandson of Michael Duggan (1840-1909) and Mary Nolan Duggan (1835-1915).
The entire clan was at one time living in or on the family farm near Dalton City.
I have extensive Census, Civil War, and other information related to them but have
hit a dead end in one area.
I know they were from Limerick County
and immigrated to the US during the Irish Famine but don't know when exactly or through what port.
In addition, I had an uncle from Mt. Zion tell me a story that Michael Duggan Sr.(1810-90)
came over to America with Tom Dalton BEFORE the famine and scouted out the area.
They went through Kakaskia Island and over to the Dalton City area.
Then they returned to Ireland and brought their families during 1846-52.
I'm not sure the story is true but many family legends usually have some connection to the truth.
I appreciate any information that anyone can provide.

I have found two Amos Emans: a gg-gf Amos, age 57 in 1877, and his son Amos, age 19 in 1877.
The elder Amos's first wife died in 1876 in Moultrie Co; he is single in the 1880 census in Cooke Co. TX.
I have not found the younger Amos in 1880 so far; he married in 1883 in TX.
Which one married Keziah Sanders? Which ever one did, she must have died by 1880, or by 1883!
Any info appreciated. Thank you for your time.
