Hezekiah Kibby, m. Amanda Finkbiner, had daughter Anna,Alice and son named William
Hi, I am trying to find information on Hezekiah Kibby who married Amanda Finkbeiner/Finkbiner. They lived in Clark Co., IL. They had a daughter named Anna who married a Walter White, they also had a daughter named Alice and a son named William from what I was told. I was told Alice married a Rudolp Kuhn. Anna and Walter White had a daughter named Lillian Lorraine, and also Alice Marie, and a son Walter White . Anna was married earlier to an Unknown MacDonald/McDonald and had a daughter named Florence MacDonald. Alice Marie White was born Apr 1, 1912 and was 4 years old when her mother Anna died. Anna White (Kibby) was abt 38 at the time of her death. Alice lived with her grandparents, Anna and Hezekiah for about 8years till her father remarried. They then moved to MI. Alice married 1) Compton Kinnaird 2.) Fred Harndin. Any info on this line would be appreciated. Thanks Sharon

Hezekiah and Amanda Finkbiner Kibby are buried in Zion Cemetery at Zion United Methodist Church (at the time of their burial known as Zion Evangelical Church, also Big Creek Church), Wabash Twp, Clark Co, Illinois. Their common marker reads Hezekiah Kibby, July 12, 1841 - Jan 5, 1920; Amanda Kibby, Aug 19, 1847 - Apr 5, 1920 (Transcriptions, Zion Cemetery, Wabash Township, Clark County Genealogical Library, Marshall, Illinois, 1972). Their son William C. (Dec 16, 1869 - Feb 29, 1948) is buried in the same cemetery. Hezekiah and Amanda were married 14 Jun 1866 in Clark Co (Marriage Index, Illinois Statewide, 1763-1900). Their daughter Mary Alice Kibby married Rudolph J. Kuhn 22 Nov 1885 in Effingham County, Illinois (Marriage Index, Illinois Statewide). Mary Alice and Rudolph J. Kuhn are listed in the 1920 Clark Co, Wabash Twp census. Rudolph is also listed in the 1930 census (Mary Alice had died by that time). One of their children was Harry Otto Kuhn, who married Lillie Alyce Tapscott (my aunt). I have quite a lot of documented information on Harry Otto and Lillie Tapscott Kuhn and their descendants, but relatively little on Kibbys (other than the parents of Harry Otto).
There are a few other Kibbys buried in both the Zion and Marshall, Illinois cemeteries. I encourage that you contact the Clark County Genealogical Library in Marshall for marker transcriptions and other information on these Kibbys.
Regards, Bob Tapscott

Hi Bob, thank-you so much for the help and information. I am fairly positive that Hezekiah's father was Lucius Kibby who lived in Terra Haunte, Indiana. Just have not been able to find any documention yet to prove this yet. I am really excited to have the information on Hezekiah and Amanda, I hope by having the different dates of birth,death and marriage that I might be able to find out more information on them. Thanks again. Sharon

Kirby son of William C. Kirby son of Hezekiah and Amanda. I also suggest utilizing the Ancestry.Com Message Board for Clark County, Illinois to enquire about Kibbys.
