My great grandfather is buried at Hallam Burying Ground 3 miles south of Eureka, Illinois, Woodford County. My Illinois sources show no cemetery in that location. This must be an old family cemetery on Hallam land. I found such land on some old platt maps that someone sent to me. Douglas Rush died around 1896 when my grandmother was only 5 years old. He had a sister named Cornelia (or sister-in-law) and one referred to as Aunt Rye. Cornelia was called Aunt Sis by my grandmother. We know nothing of Douglas Rush. He married Emma Alice Brown in Leavenworth, Kansas. Died and buried in Woodford County, Illinois. Two daughters: Anna Alice and Mary Jane. Does anyone know of a connection to the Hallam family? I am grasping at straws here to get some information for my aging mother. It was her request to know something about her grandfather's family. We didn't know until recently that it has always been a big mystery that she and her sisters and her mother had wanted to know. Any clues???
