James, Samuel, and Robert ROBERTSON lived in Harris TWP of Fulton County during the 1870s. Samuel ROBERTSON was living in Bushnell, McDonough County, ILL in 1880. Vezey GRENARD and family lived in Fulton and McDonough Counties from 1870 to mid 1890s. Colleteral family name in Fulton County is DIMMITT and TRACY. Would appreciate any information about these surnames. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kreider -- Reed Fri Jan 3 18:51:24 1997 Need parents names of: SAMUEL KREIDER and KATHERINE REED, Samuel came with his parents to Fulton Co. in 1835 from Washington Co., PA. In census of Fulton Co. there is a George Kreider, and family in 1840. Samuel lived there until 1847. In 1849 he lived in Putnam Co., I assume he married in Fulton or Knox Co.,23 Jan.1844, to Katherine Reed, born in Park Co.,IND. She came to Knox Co. with her parents in 1836, but I think they relocated to Fulton Co. and lived out their lives there. I have an article from a history book in Washington Co., PA., That mentions a John Kreider that relocated from there to Fulton Co., ILL. in the 1830's, and died at the age of 84 as a result of being thrown from a horse. So is John the dad or grand dad of Samuel? Samuel named a son John, and another, George. They had the following children: Wilson E. born ? James A. born ? Sabina Jane born 3 Dec 1844 Fulton Co., IL.(she married: Wm. W. Hiltabrand) died 29 Jan 1873 La Salle Co.,IL. John born 1847 George W. born April 1849 died 1931 William H. born 13 June 1856 Putnam Co., IL. died 27 Nov 1858 Putnam Co. Samuel Kreider died 21 June 1899, & Katherine died 25 May 1879 I would appreciate any added info on these two families, while in Fulton Co., and or other siblings to Samuel & Katherine.
