Subject: [ILFAYETT-L] Lape land purchases in Fayette Co.
Date: Mon, 29 May 2000 06:19:15 -0700
Hello, Jerry. Thank you for the response. According to the
deed index the Lapes who purchased land were Henry, Samuel,
Daniel, Sophia, John W., and Catherine. Dates of purchase
ranged from 1851-1874.
The Lape family from Ohio moved to Illinois around 1961-2,
settled in Marion Co.There Nicholas J. Lape died in 1865.
I'm unable to find a burial for him, His wife was Elizabeth
Rogers Lape. Since he had nine brothers and sisters( I have
no names) I thought perhaps the Fayette Co. Lapes might be
related.
Any clues? Bee
