Gallahers TN >Adams Co., IL
I'm looking for my g-grandfather Abe Gallaher (b. circa 1861) who md. Martha Jane Simms (b. 6 Feb 1863, McKee Twnshp, Adams Co, IL). They were married around 1880-1881, probably in the Adams Co., IL area, altho I can find no marriage record on them. His family may be from Tennessee.
Family legend says he died between 1885-90 of a heart attack or aneurysm when his three daughters (Sarah Alice, Elva, and Nora) were all under the age of 10. I have no death record or burial on him. If anyone knows anything of this Abe, and his parentage, please let me know.
Best wishes, Susan
