I am looking for a Lutheran Church in Monroe Co that had a pastor by the
name of Theodore Horn in 1860.
My Gr Gr grandfather had a certificate of confirmation dated April 15, 1860
issued by Rev Theodore Horn and written in the Danish language.
Does anybody know what church this would be?
Thanks for any help.

Hello:
Further to my query re Thomas M. Davis, and a possible Bissell
relationship, I note that a Joseph Davis was a resident of Monroe County at
least between 1840 and 1860, based on a reading of the respective census'.
Joseph apparently also was born in Illinois at an early time, as the census
of 1860 gives his age at 52, and birth in Illinois.

Hello:
The 1807 Indiana Territorial Census, for Randolph County, Illinois
Territory, lists only two Davis': James and Richard, and one Bissell:
Daniel.
My great grandfather, Thomas M. Davis, was born in Illinois in 1799/1800.
He named a son James Bissell Davis, leading me to believe Thomas may have
been a son of either James or Richard Davis, and that his mother may have
been a Bissell.
Does anyone have any information relating to the three men, or to any
Davis/Bissell family known to have been in Illino
