Looking for relatives of William Hathaway & his wife Mary Elizabeth "Lizzie"
Robertson (Robinson). In 1900 Wm. Hathaway was a Hotel Landlord in Sandoval,
Il. He is shown as a neighbor of John Robertson, Lizzie's father, on the
1900 census for Sandoval. In 1910 Wm. Hathaway was City Marshal of Sandoval.
They had a large family: Halvern "Hally", Catherine Louise my gg grandmother
(b. 1886), Clare wife of Karl Moody, Fay & Lavon. Catherine Louise married
James E. Burke, a railroad man ca. 1907 and had my grandfather William
Edward Burke born Sept. 1908. James E. Burke was born in Portsmouth, Ohio in
1884. Don't know what ever happened to Jasmes Burke as Catherine later
remarried to James Ernest Richard (b. Sandoval 1885) son of Joseph Franklin
Richard and Mariann Susan Smith. If you are related or have some information
on these families I would like to talk to you. Thanks, Skip Warren

My ggf and

They came from Siegen, Westfalen, Purssia, where his father was Johann
Englebert MUELLER. I believe they came to IL because of some MUELLER
relatives there. (In Prussia the name was spelled Muller with an umlaut over
the U.) They moved to ND where my gm, a daughter named Maria married Louis
MISCHE. Recently I came in possession of an old photo album with several
pictures from Eclipse Studio in Kinmundy, IL and some from Lynder Studio in
Monee, IL. They look about 1890 to 1900 vintage. Are there still some
Mueller relatives in IL, and if so, perhaps I could email/scan the pictures
to them for ID.

looking for Harold for many years. Harold was a musician who left home to
pursue he love of music as his father was totally against this profession
and Harold felt he had to leave. he left at home a wife and 2 children, a
boy, Harold, Jr. and a daughter Madelyn who married a sailor either right
before the end of WWII or right after. Harold's father was Stephen Cilley
Currier, Jr. and Mary Eliza Evans from Everett, Massachusetts. Harold was
born June 21, 1891 in Everett, Massachusetts.Harold obtained his Social
Security card in California before 1951. Harold had a brother, Allen Dale
Currier, an artist who also delayed his career in art till later in life.
Allen was my grandfather. Allen died in 1976 in New Bedford, Massachusetts.
Hoping someone out there in Marion County will recognize the name and my
story. This has been a family mystery we would love to solve. Thank you in
