I am looking for living descendants of Robert Jackson Mitchell (1817-1888) m. Nancy Garrish (1823-?). Their son James Monroe Mitchell (1843-?) m. Louisa V Skiles (1844-1929). I have record of 3 sons, Charles, Jessie, and Frank Sherman. Franklin Sherman Mitchell (1866-1943) m. Sadie Anderson. Their children were Nellie Mayble McCarthy, Willis Van Mitchell, Grant Victor Mitchell, Walter Frank Mitchell, Robert Cecil Mitchell, and Charles Glen Mitchell.
Walter Frank was my paternal grandfather. I still have the family bible pages.
Most of the Mitchell family I know of lived in Browning, IL. However I have traced some to Pennsylvania. My own relatives moved to California via Texas.
I know Grant V Mitchell married Ella Ott, they had 2 daughters (Anna and Dorothy) and a son Grant V Jr that died in 2009 in PA. I have an obituary that lists his children as Grant V the 3rd, Patrick, Jaqueline Evans, Denise, and Becky Perry. I can't find any more descendants of this family. I would love to find some living cousins.
I also have Robert Cecil Mitchell marrying Mary Robinson Muir, having children Robert Grant (1918-2004) Natlane (1919-1985) Frank MacKenzie (1922-2006), Verne (1923-1991) and Mary L. (1925-?). Frank MacKenzie Mitchell married Mary Bowers and apparently had 3 daughters, I don't know their information. Robert Grant married Denise Codden and might have had a daughter - again I don't know her name or info.
Any information would be appreciated. You can PM me here, post a reply, or find me on facebook
