Hi all. I'm looking for anyone descended from the following individuals:

William Coventry b. about 1825 m. Elizabeth Stinchacum and lived in Richland
Co., IL. He d. about 1871 and so did Elizabeth (we think!). They had many
children including but not limited to William, Samuel, John W., Nettie J.,
Sionilli/Illinois

John Coventry. We don't have any info on him yet, but he purchased land in
Fayette Co., IL about 1838.

Mary Coventry b. about 1803 m. John Meek. They started out in PA or OH, and
were in Fayette Co., IL around 1840. They had the following children:
William, George, Jacob, Eliza Jane/Jane, John, and Andrew. Andrew was the only
child born in IL.

Jemima Coventry b. about 1825, possibly a twin of William?? m. John Bartlett in
Richland Co., IL in 1850. Jemima gave permission for William's daughter Nettie
J. to get married in 1884. Also, I believe Sionilli was living in their
household in 1880

There is a group of 5 of us researching these people and we believe them all to
be related, probably siblings and the children of Jacob and Jane Coventry (in
the Richland Co., IL 1850 census age 79). We are in the process of looking for
any living descendents of any of these individuals in hopes of finding out more
about them or at least to make new cousin connections. Please email back ASAP
if you are from one these lines. Thanks so much!

Erin
