Sue, thanks for the reply. I know for a fact that Sarah Elizabeth Reynolds, daughter of Daniel and Bell Reynolds, was born in Robinson, IL, July 24, 1870. She was my mother's mother. It lists her on mom's birth certificate as being 34 years old. My mom was born in 1904. My mother's father was William Albert Williamson, born Alton, IL. 1862 or 1863. I have found many William Williamsons of Shelby, Boone, Montgomery, Iroquois, Clay, Peoria, and just about every other county in IL. I did find thru the old city directory from the Bloomington Public Library, that William and Sarah Williamson lived on Market Street in Bloomington in 1900. He was a salesman. In 1899, the listing has him in Normal, IL. His occupation was a paperhanger. I am really trying to find out about the Reynolds side. Will go through the vital statistics bureau. My husband and I are planning on moving back to the midwest, and I will try to continue my reasearch there. Am beginning to think this fa!
mily came from Michigan or PA. (Reynolds.) Thanks for taking the time to look this info up. It is greatly appreciated. Shari P.S. My mother's name was Eunice Mae Williamson Underwood Phillips. She was born in Bloomington. She and my father lived most of their lives in Rantoul, IL. Many of my relatives are Williamson's from around Bloomington area, i.e., the late George, Dewey, Roy, Wendell, Bobby, Aunt Elizabeth Williamson, Darlene Williamson Prather, living, Michael, William, Bruce, and Darlene's children. I am currently living in Beaufort, SC, close to Hilton Head. Sorry this is so long, but maybe someone might see a name they recognize.
