My name is Angela Rivers, I am a member for the Earnest Family that came to Champaign County around the Homer area. Robert R. Earnest (born in September 1858) was the son of Jacob Earnest and Lorena Earnest nee Johnson for Greene County, Tennessee. They first came to Vermilion County, Illinois around 1871, and later moved to South Homer Township in Champaign County in the 1880s. Robert married Mary Caroline Earnest around 1884/1885 in Vermilion County. Mary would had been 27 years old making her birth year 1862. She was born in South Carolina. Robert had several siblings including Alfred Earnest, Lewis Earnest who briefly lived in Decatur, Illinois, and a Charles Earnest. Sisters included Sarah J Lewis nee Earnest, Dora Thomas Gaines nee Earnest and Maria Ruth Tapp nee Earnest known as Ruth. I am descended from Jacob's nephew, Oliver Frank Earnest who came to the Homer area in 1902. Frank Earnest who died in WWI was Oliver's grandson, whom he raised as a son.
