MARTIN, RACKHAM posted by
Deanna
Staley
Looking for siblings of Mary Ellen MARTIN b. 1855
in Sandoval, Marion County, Illinois. She was the daughter of Welcome MARTIN
and Mary (MAINE) MARTIN. Welcome and his wife Mary moved to Sandoval from
Delaware County, Ohio in about 1853. Welcome owned and operated a general
store for the railroad personnel in Sandoval. On the 1860 census children
Charlie and Edson (may be short for Madison?) were listed, one 9 years old and
one 11, both born in Ohio, along with Mary Ella, 5 years old. Cannot locate
the family on the 1850 census, so unsure of other siblings, but family
tradition says they had a LOT of children. Mary Ellen married Frank Thomas
RACKHAM in Marion County in 1877. After Mary (MAINE) MARTIN died, Welcome was
supposed to have married a widow by the name of Lindsay. He died in 1879
unknown where. Frank Thomas RACKHAM was the son of Thomas RACKHAM and
Catherine Ann TEATS. Thomas was a railroad engineer and lived in Centralia. He
died in 1897. According to copies of the information in a family bible,
Catherine died a couple of weeks after Frank Thomas was born in 1854 in
Centralia. (Frank Thomas was born in Marshall, Michigan though.) Thomas
RACKHAM remarried an Annie BROWN (I think). They had several children
together. Any help with any of these families would be appreciated. Thomas was
listed on the 1860 census as Thomas RAKKAIM. Thanks in advance for help Deanna

wife. She is buried alone next to one of her sons in Ill. Thanks for any
