Thank you so much for submitting this information. I realize that your aren't related but wanted to be sure you were thanked. Perhaps this reply will be of interest to others. Pat Nicholson descends from Jerusha P. Hanson, wife of John L. Allison. After Jerusha died, leaving her two young children Mary Elizabeth and John, John L. Allison married Deborah L. Weeks. Deborah L. Weeks was born in Mass. Deborah and John had William Frances "Frank", Jerusha Agnes, and Edwin. (There may be another child buried at Camp Ground Cem. Will check for those interested.) John L. Allison died on or about 1 Mar 1864. He is not buried in Coles Co. Deborah later married John Evans. Aunt Kizzie (often spelled that way) was with this Evans household in the 1870 Coles Co. Illinois census, aged 90 but was not with them in 1880. I descend from W.F. "Frank" Allison, d. 1926 Iowa, bur. Moweaqua, IL. Edwin died in Indiana. "Agnes" probably died in IL, and possibly before "Frank". Her husband was John Herman (spelled Heerman, Heermann, Herman, and in the IL State Archives Marr. Database as Human). **I need a date of death for "Agnes".** Thanks again for posting the information. For other readers, I will be happy to exchange information. Three of my approved DAR ancestors were ancestors of John L. Allison. Contact me at rchrdcck@aol.com. Kathleen (STANFIELD) COOK
