Pike County Illinois Families

Pike County Illinois Families

To get the year 2011 started off on the right foot today I created and uploaded four genealogy reports about Pike County, Illinois families. The reports were created from my RootsMagic genealogy file. The reports are in the PDF format and they reside in My Box on Box.net. Access to the reports is by invitation only.

• Guy Louis Dougherty (11 pages)
• Jacob Joshua Stauffer (76 pages)
• Wells Cooley (176 pages)
• Abraham Henthorn (329 pages)

The reports for the Henthorn and Stauffer families replaced information that was previously shared on Box.Net. There is some duplication between the various reports because the four families are linked by marriage.

Stauffer Family of Pike County, Illinois

Last week I found an obituary for Maud Ellen (Stauffer) Carroll on the Internet. She died on 5 Apr 2009 at Mt. Sterling, (Brown Co.,) Illinois. I already had a record for her in my genealogy file but didn't have the information about her descendants that could be extracted from the obituary. I enjoyed including a copy of the obituary in her "note" field and adding the information about the members of her family.

This morning I created a nice 73-page PDF report that lists everything in my genealogy file about the Stauffer family, many of whom are from Pike Co., Illinois the location of my own Henthorn roots.

Remember the Days of Long Ago

Remember the days of long ago; think about the generations past. Ask your father and he will inform you. Inquire of your elders, and they will tell you. (Deuteronomy 32:7 in The One-Year Mini For Men, 27 May)

Yesterday I discovered a couple of pages of information about some members of the Stauffer family of Pike county, Illinois. There's a link between the Stauffer family and my own Henthorn family. The most interesting thing was that Beverly Ann Stauffer married Richard David Conger, Jr. I have also done a lot of work on the Conger family. I checked my Conger file to see if I could figure out where Richard David Conger, Jr. fits into that family. I couldn't.
