SURNAMES: STRAIGHT
I am researching the STRAIGHT in Wayne Co., IL. They came
to Wayne county from Stuben County,N.Y. in ca 1860.
SURNAMES: BLACK HICKENBOTTOM WHEELER
I am researching George C. BLACK, born Wayne Co., IL, c1839.
He is listed in the 1850 Federal Census with Louis/Loris and May/Mary BLACK, and two sisters. They are living next door to the FRANSIER/FRAZIERs, including William.
The 1860 Federal Census has George BLACK in Clay Co., Il, Flora Twnship, living with William and Martha FRAZIER. I have been unable to find his parents at this point.
1861, George married Sarah Jane HICKENBOTTOM. 1862, He joined
the Illinois 124th Infantry, Co. K., and they had a son (Lewis Gideon
BLACK). March 28, 1865, George died from wounds sustained in the Battle
at Spanish
Fort, Mobile, AL.
Sarah Jane remarried in 1871 to Bradley WHEELER; I have much information on them.
I need to find George C. BLACK's final resting place, his parents in 1860 and prior to 1850 (Kentucky?), and his sisters.
