>Lee, I lived in Kirksville, MO 45 years ago and there were a number of
Truitts living there. This is in Adair County, MO and there is a listserver
called MOADAIR-L that you can subscribe to and place a query. Kirksville is
only 65 - 80 miles away. Possibly they moved from IL to MO. Some of my
ancestors did.

there. I still have not been able to verify if my ancestors resided in
Hancock County, or if they were only married there. The marriages were as
follows:
>>
>> --1847 "Elizabeth Ann Truitt" marries "Henry Mortimer Kellogg" in Nauvoo,
Hancock County, Illinois.
>>
>> --1849 "Mahala Truitt" marries "Jacob Emanuel" in Hancock County,
Illinois. An old Truitt Family Bible indicates that the marriage of Mahala
Truitt and Jacob Emanuel occurred on 1 July 1849, "at residence of bride's
father." Thus, Lottie Hendricks assumes that as of 1849, Isaac Truitt may
have lived in or near Hancock County, Illinois.

family who may have lived in Hancock County, Illinois 1847 - 1849. They
do not appear in the 1850 Census Index for Hancock county, but could
possibly show up by doing a page by page search. Any ideas or suggestions
on how to find my Truitts?
