Jordan Sullivan and Sarah Rodgers

Surnames: Sullivan, Mahan, Rogers
I am searching for information on Jordan Sullivan who married Sarah Rogers
around 1866. Jordan was born in Kentucky. They had 2 children that I know
of:

John A. (L.) born 1878 married Eliza Jane Mahan 1903
Safrona married ______ Jones.

Found Jordan and Sarah on 1880 Gallatin Coounty Illinos Census w/ nephew living with them.

Found Jordan on 1900 Eldorado Census with family and these 2 kids listed above

Found John A and Eliza Jane (Mahan)and family (my husbands great great
grandparents) on 1910 Eldorado Census

Found Safrona, husband (whose 1st name we can't read) and kids on 1920
Eldorado Census. Sarah was living with them and their kids on this census.

Jordan was convicted of murder in 1896 at Shawneetown and sentenced to 15 or
20 yrs in prison. He died Sept 20th 1912 and according to the death
certificate the cause of death was listed as falling off R.R. train. It
lists that he was buried at the Kedron cemetery. However no parents are
listed on the death certificate.

I am looking for any one with further info on Jordan or Sarah, especially
who their parents were and if they had any other children. Any info on
Safrona's family and what happened to Sarah after Jordan's death.
Any info in Eliza Jane Mahan's family. her parents names were George W. Mahan and Fanny Sullivan (Bullitt)

Thanks for any help.
Beth & Mike Sullivan
