| Bio and Links |
In honor of my mother, Marjorie Valentine (Sims) Harrison, I am submitting her photo with my profile.
I have been working quite hard on my family history information since 1993.
I have compiled detailed enumerations for 5 1/5 cemeteries here in Coles Co, IL and have posted most of what I have on 4 of those here on Find A Grave at this time. The names of the cemeteries that I have compiled records for are: Stoner, Adkins/Woodson, Brown's (Unity) Chapel, Mt Tabor, McKenzie, and Hurricane. I've worked some on Kickapoo (Mt Zion), and Whetstone Cemeteries. I've added links and photos to memorials for all known burials at Mt Tabor.
I'm adding family & requested memorials & photos for Mound/Roselawn Cem in Charleston, Bethel and Rest Haven Cems in Lafayette Twp, as well as a few others.
I also have over 100 Williams family kin in Harmony Cem in Cumberland Co, IL as well as having made other submissions on memorials in several other cemeteries in IA, IL, IN, OH, and WV.
As a photo volunteer, I have visited several more cemeteries in this area to search for markers.
I am part of a small group working on cleanup of the Cossell Cem, located NW of Charleston. We are slowly making progress!
I am primarily researching: Harrison, Sims, Williams, Reynolds, Malcom(b), Stotts, McCreery, Stoner, Schnorf, Adkins, Pettit.
And, recently, I have begun searching for information on my wife's ancestry. Names include: Thomas, Elder, Brooks, Blake, Johnson, Pilkington, Miller, Offill, Richards, Elliott, Norman, Davis, Wright, Wallace, Beaman, Dage, Perkins, Clark, Brockway, Cooley, Durfey, Skinner, Goodwin, Hull, Fickle, Slaymaker, Voetgling, Beck, and Tatman. (so far).
I firmly believe that anyone capable of finding, reviewing and posting information on FAG does not need specific directives from other volunteer contributors about how to manage the memorials they have spent their time to post. If errors or omissions in content are observed, then a suggestion to the contributor with updated information would definitely be appreciated. | |

 | RE: Josephine Joanne (Rumfelt) Bevil, Hamilton
William, I greatly appreciate all you have done in locating Aunt Joanne's gravesite. The three unmarked graves could possibly have been two of her children, Apparently they died as infants, because I don't have any names or dates for them, only that there were three children and Elbert grew to adult hood. The third unmarked one, I have no idea at this time, unless her second husband is buried there as well. His name was Henry Hamilton and I have been trying to find a death date for him, but with no success. I guess I will do more research. I just posted my email on my member page, I will leave it there until tomorrow. Thanks again, I really do appreciate you. BettyAdded by Brnc on May 16, 2013 5:19 PM | | | Phyllis (Porter) Zegers

Aunt Joanne was the way I knew her, so it is a possiblity that it was recorded that way, maybe even, by other spellings, Joan or JoeAnn, who knows? I really appreciate all the trouble that you are going through to find her grave, thank you ever so much. BettyAdded by Brnc on May 15, 2013 6:30 AM | | | william hammann

 | RE: Search for Sims family markers
I am glad that you were able to obtain the information. WPN is a little out of my area but if another volunteer does not claim your request, let me know and I will see if I can locate the burial. | | | | [View all messages...] |
