I am working with following lines that were supposed to have lived or
had children who
lived in Johnson County, and Pope Counties in Il.

William Gossage born 1773prob MD and Mary Ferguson Gossage. Their son
George Washington Gossage born 1812 in Caswell County, NC married Nancy
Hart
of Bedford County, TN.
Other children were Nancy, James Patton, , Andrew Jackson, Betsy,
Mary and Sally

George Washington Gossage and Nancy Hart Gossage had 13 children
1) James W, 2) Mary A, 3)Sarah E married C W Stansberry 4) William D
5) H L Gossage 6) Thomas D 7) Fanna M Gossage 1847 - 1887
married Isaac McDonald Robertson in 1861
8) Mahulda Gossage married J W Hancock 9) Nancy Gossage married
William Williams 10) George Washington, Jr, 11) Andrew Jackson Gossage
12) Virginia Gossage married Asa Owen 13) Infant

My children's Boone line descends from Edward Boone, son of Squire
Boone and
younger brother of Daniel Boone. Edward Boone married Martha Bryan
sister to
Daniels wife Rebecca Bryan. Lineage is Squire, Edward, George, Daniel,
William Bennett, James, William (of Saline County, Il), Boyd of
Williamson County
and Kenneth (MO)

Working also on Burkharts, Mifflins & Swanns of Williamson County, Il

I am now in St Louis County, but still get down to Williamson County
every month
or so. Thank for writing. I will keep you names for future --never
know. I
have more of my surnames listed at homepage address at bottom of
