I'm searching for more information for Richard Mullikin who was listed in the household of Daniel Sullivan in the 1880 Moultrie Co., Illinois Federal Census. Richard's last name was spelled "Muligan". He was listed as a boarder, laborer, age 23, b. KY, parents b. KY. I think he may be the son of Lewis S. and Sarah Jane (Ellis) Mullikin from KY. Richard's birth is listed in a Mullikin family Bible and he can be found in the 1860 and 1870 KY census' with his parents. That's all the info we have for him.
