Hi Eric- Do you know anything else about your John Fickes??Where was he born and how old was he when he died?Who were their children? I descend from John Fickes who died in 1892 Coles County.He was married to Lydia Wallingford in 1840, and then to Fannie Hayes in 1878.John's family was from Pennsylvania and they settled in Coles County in the 1830s.John was a popular name in this family.My John's father was also a John Fickes (d. 1854).Could our Johns be the same?If not, they are related I'm sure.Do you know what township they lived in?If you'd like, you can e-mail me at [email protected].
