• Notes

  (Research):1820: Believe this is the Wm. listed in Core Creek/Newport, Carteret County, NC. 1840: Living in Jackson County, IL. From research thus far and neighbors listed, I believe he was living about 6 miles south of Murphysboro in Ridge Township (now Pomona Twp). Found papers talking about building a school for Mud Creek Settlement. Not positive where this was, but Mud Creek runs basically North and South between M'boro and Carbondale.
