Hello, everyone,
Letting people know have put separate search engines for both Warren sites
That way won't have duplicate pages showing up when using a search engine.
Thanks for all the contributions, typing and such. keep them a coming always
enjoy receiving photos, obits, anything of interest to me and others.
Ellison Cemetery is now online, (Have some Tombstone Photos) emailed to me
by Teresa Smith, Teresa is the one who has been typing up cemeteries like
the Lenox & Old Prairie City cemetery among others, she has ancestors of Ray
s buried in the Lenox. I only found one tombstone for her still looking for
the wife. along with the (Berwick Cemetery listings Have some tombstone
photos) accomplished by Kathy Mills & myself, and the Silent Home Cemetery
listings contributed by my daughter Kate and Myself. In the Silent Home
Cemetery (Have loads of tombstone photos) there are some people buried there
who do NOT have tombtones. I know this for a fact. Have one whole family of
Johnston's there no visible sign of their graves but I know where they are.
A few others were moved there from the Cemetery just north of it. other
stones from that one were used as a side walk to a person's house years ago.
What some people will do. She's doing another one right now and when she
get it done it will be online also. I'm mastering this excell to frontpage
pretty good. the pages don't look so bad now.
1903 History book is going online curtsey of Kate and myself. Have it to the
Greenbush township. There are biographies in this book in all the townships.
I don't have them all linked up but with time will get that done too. that
takes a while but all the people who have biographies in the book are on the
1903 History book Index page along with the other sections of the book. Been
a long time in coming and first book online for my Warren county site. Have
others online on my Knox but this is the first. Some bios are already online
and will leave them as they were typed up by other people and emailed to me
to online publishing.
.
When the weather dries up a bit maybe can get out to a few of these
abandoned cemeteries. I've been planning on visiting right now been raining
here in IL and really need to let it dry up. I got stuck in the mud at once
and walked ten miles home with my dogs as I had them with me the next day I
didn't think I could walk. Have a friend who is going to take me to a couple
of these when it dries out here. Can't wait. Am itching to get out into the
cemeteries again. Miss the peacefulness of them.
My news is we have two sets of Twin Lambs. Our last ewe finally had her
lambs this morning. a little ram and a female. Daisy Lou Kate's main ewe had
twins. a Ram and little Callie, Mickey a little Minnie, Fern, and Lit'le Jac
Lit'le Jac is the oldest she was born in Feb and the other four were born
this month.
I've also got to get busy and get my Terpening family history book ready so
I can have it published this year. anyone with Terpening, Smith, Armstrong,
Whitman, Wallace, & Ect. who lived in the Kelly Coldbrook Twps areas be sure
and get a hold of me.
Have a good one.
Your Friend,
