> I, too, have some mysteries in this area. My ancestor, George Miller, took his family from Franklin County--I believe Hamilton Township-- to Iowa somewhere around 1857. The next batch of children were all born in Iowa (first in 1858), and then they returned to Franklin County--this time to Quincy township--before the 1870 census. I have yet to determine where in Iowa they lived, or why they went.

I haven't been able to figure out exactly when that was but it was toward the end of the century. Some of the relatives remained near Sterling, Illinois. My father was never able to tell me why this happened, either, though he met some relatives in Sterling when he was in school in Chicago, mid to late 1940's.
