PLUMMER, RIDINGS
LouAnn 15 Nov 11:22:15 2004
I'm looking for someone willing to do two divorce lookups for me in Cass county.
According to the ISMI Lloyd W. Plummer married Grace Ridings on 01 Oct 1896 in Schuyler
Co., IL. Their wedding newspaper clipping states they will reside in Virginia, IL where he
is in business. By the 1900 census, each party is living at home with their parents. Both
are listed as widowed. However, Lloyd W. Plummer marries again about 1907 to a Rosa
(surname unknown). For this divorce, I'd like the date and copies of the court records
available. I'll be happy to pay for all costs involved.
The second one is for Lloyd's sister Amy Plummer. Amy E. Plummer m. 24 Sep 1885, Cass,
Albert R. Prouty. (Vol. 56, license 4351; ISMI) AND Amy Plummer m. 25 June
1895, Cass, Hiram P. Strole. (Vol. 56, license
5765; ISMI) Albert R. Prouty continues to show up on censuses. All I want to know for this
couple is 1)Did the marriage occur as per the 1885 license? OR 2)Were they divorced? when?
My main line of research is the Ridings line. That's why I want more information on the
Plummer/Ridings marriage and divorce. The second request is to make certain that I'm
following the correct family.
I'd sincerely appreciate any help someone is willing to offer.

I am looking for my grandmother who was born in Beardstown 9-16-1924. Her name was Violet Mary Stucker. She was, at a young age, placed in Foster care and later sent to a catholic orphanage in Alton, IL. I am hoping a birth certificate/record exists. Also, any Stucker surnames which could have been her parents, would be greatly appreciated as I realize this will be a more difficult search.

I have found on the Illinois Civil War Veterans list three individuals with my last name, Lahman, who listed their residence as China, Illinois. We know that parts of our family were in Cass County at certain times. I'm wondering if China, Illinois used to be a town in Cass County that since disappeared or changed its name? If not in Cass County, have you seen any information on a China, Illinois elsewhere in the State?
Thank you for any help you are able to provide.

HACKMAN

Looking for any info on Hackman's in Cass county. (John ?) Henry Hackman b.1824
d. 1874 married Louisa Jokisch
3-13-1856 and were the parents of mygreat grandfather Julius. I believe Henry's
father to be John E. Hackman who emigrated with his sons to Cass County from
Germany. Online bios detail John E.'s info and lists 2 sons who are also easily
verified, but I find no positive ID of a John Henry as John E.'s son or brother of John
Frederick and William Hackman.
