WILL YOU HELP ME FIND MY G-GRANDMA SUSAN ELLIS
Bev Lloyd 12/29/08
My G-grandma, Sarah E Ammons married my G-Grandpa, John Bunyon Harris, Dec 28,1860, in Olney, Richland Co. Il. She was born Sept. 5,1845, in In. And died June 6,1882 in Dawson Co Ne. When she married there was a note attached to the marriage certificate that read, To the clerk of Richland Co. This is to authorize the clerk of said co. to issue a license for the marriage of Jon Harris to my daughter Sarah E Ammons. Sighned Wm. Mcdowell and S.E. Mcdowell. The question is why the diffrence between the daughters name and the authorizing parents. So far I have found no history for this family, since Sarah was born in In. they may be from there. Any help would be appreciated.Thanks Bev

Married, in Jeffersonville, Indiana, on Sunday the 3rd day of February, A.D. 1850; by Jacob Glossbrinner, Esq., Mr. Wellington B. Pierce, late of this place, now Book Keeper of Indiana State Prison, to Mrs. Susan Ellis Ammons, of Jeffersonville, In.
The Planter, April 4. 1850. Vol. 3. No. 2
No matches found for Wm *Mcdowell* and Susan, on the 1860 IL census on either Heritage Quest or Ancestry.com Was the name spelled "McDowell"?
I could not find military records for William McDowell (enlistment papers into the Union Army in Richland co Il., and that he was killed in La in 1863)
Have you requested pension records? Perhaps Susan claimed a pension. You could write to to the National Archives to request his pension which may give information about Susan's name and location.
