-------------------------

Shirley could your Elizabeth be a sister to my grandfather he was born
in 1865 and I can trace his family to Lawrence
county IL along with his brother's and sisters, Israel, Jake
,Elizabeth, Dinah, Amanda, and Martha. I have a picture of
their father but no name on it, no other history from there
except I know the family was in IN & IL. Amanda married Elzie Uriah Waller
in St Francisville, their children were
Leo, Mary, and Hazel. and Martha Black married a Douglas
from that same area and had a son Will Douglas and she
remarried and had a daughter Elizabeth Davidson. My Grandfather Israel
moved to Iron Co. Mo and is burried in
chapman's cemetery there. The time period is the same and
also the area so I hope this will be a match, I will keep
checking. Hope to hear from you soon. Carrol Black in St Louis
