> I responded to Charles saying that the material I have for the descendants
of Almeron was submitted by others and that I would like to have some
sources before making any changes to what I have posted. I gave Charles the
names and email addresses of the Almeron descendants who submitted materail
to me. To this date, I have not received anything relating to the
question/correction posed by Charles. And I'll have to admit that I "sort
of forgot" about the question.

> Today, while entering some material relating to 1049-James Sackett I
checked the Censuses for Madison Co., IL for Sacket(t)s and found an
Ancestry index entry for Clish Sackett in the 1860 census:
> Silver Creek, Madison Co., IL; Roll: M704_64; Page 112
> Census: 200 000 100 000 0 - 112 101 000 000 0
> When I checked the image I read the name as Elish and checked my database
and found that in the notes for Elisha W. Sackett, he was said to have lived
in Walshville, Montgomery Co., IL when the 1860 census was enumerated.
However, I have the date of his death as 1848 in Walshville. And I can't
find him in the 1850 census. Hmmm !!!
>
> As for the question Charles raised; I see that in the information I have
it shows that Elisha W. m. abt. 1820/1822 Elizabeth Voyles, (1807-1854) and
the 2nd marriage for him that I have listed is in 1837, to Elizabeth
Madison. For this construction to be correct, Elisha and Elizabeth Voyles
would have been divorced, or Elisha engaged in bigamy. And the information
I have for Elisha's brother, Jonathan is that he married Elizabeth Maddison
and their first child was born in 1839.

straightened out and corrected so that it can be included in a major update
to the information on the Sacketts of America website in the near future.
