Hi folks, hope this strikes a chord with someone. My 2nd GreatGrandmother's family in Coles Co. IL in 1850

Mary Freeman, widow b @1800 in KY
Milton Freeman, b 1833 IL or OH.
Simeon Freeman, b 1832 in IN
Manuel Freeman, b 1836 in IL
Edna Freeman, b 1839 in IN or IL
Minus Freeman, b 1838 in IN or IL

Though listed in these states, I'm not so sure except for IL. Milton was shown in the 1870 and 1880 census' in TX, birthplace varied from OH to IL.

My Grandmother is Rosella Elizabeth Freeman b 1858-9 in IL. Milton is her uncle. I have determined who her father is yet. However, her grandmother is Mary listed above.

Milton married Barbara Mary Coon in Coles Co., IL in 1859.

There is an Andrew Freeman in Coles Co. IL in 1840. This may be Mary's husband. I haven't been able to confirm.

If any of this sounds promising, drop me a line.
