Hi Theresa, This is what I have on Peter and Lucy Troxel.
Peter F. (Franklin?) Troxel married Lucy Halsey on 2 July 1835 in McLean Co, IL. Her father, Moses Halsey, was present at the marriage.Peter died after 1 Jan 1848 and before 1850. Peter is not enumerated in the 1850 DeWitt census, His widow, Lucy Troxel, is.
Peter purchased 80 acreson 22 Nov 1834 in section 20 of Township 21N (Wapella Township) DeWitt Co, IL, W2NE. Then on 29 Dec 1835 he purchased an additional 40 acres (NESW) in section 17. His purchases were adjacent to the purchases made by his father, David Troxel. The price was $1.25 per acre.
In the 1840 census, Peter F. Troxel is enumerated next to William Halsey, his stepfather. Peter F. Troxel is married to Lucy Halsey. William Halsey is married to PetersÕ mother, Nancy (Unknown) Troxel, who was previously married to David Troxel, Peter F. TroxelÕs father.
In the marriage of his sister, Hannah Troxel on 1 Jan 1848, Peter Troxel is identified as her guardian. This helps more closely pinpoint the death of Peter from Òbefore 1850Ó, to Òbetween Ò1 Jan 1848 and 1850Ó.
As widow Lucy Troxel, it is possible that Lucy married again. A Lucy Troxel was married to Amos Freeman on 1 June 1855 in DeWitt Co, IL.There is no indication in the marriage record of the age of either person in that marriage.
