Here is my quest...
1) Determine where my ancestral families were on 25 June 1866 - 150 years ago.
2) List my ancestors, their family members, their birth and death years, and their residence location (as close as possible). Do you have a photograph of their residence from about that time, and does the residence still exist?
The ancestors living in 1866 would be most of my great-grandparents, many of my great-great-grandparents, and perhaps some 4th great-grandparents.
The Civil war has ended and the country is recovering from this great divide of our country. Only one of my great grandfathers fought in the war. John Zion registered available for military duty but I have not found that he did enter the military.
1. My 2nd great grandfather John Zion 1831 - 1920 and 2nd great grandmother Mary Cassell 1919-1834 - with 3 children including my 1st great grandfather Jonathan Zion 1861 - 1927. The youngest child had not been born yet. They were living in Decatur Iowa at this time.
2.My 3rd great grandmother Elizabeth ( Carmichael } Cassell 1812 - 1899 was alive . She is the mother of 2nd great grandmother Mary Cassell. I do not know where she lived at this time.
3.My 2nd great Flavious Millsap 1831 - 1910 and 2nd great grandmother Anna Woodmansee 1841 -1904 were living in Decatur Iowa with two of their children including my 1st great grandmother Rachel Millsap 1862 - 1886 . Another 8 children were born at a later time.

My 1st great grandfather William Albert will be born a year later and she will have another 3 children after William. Betsy lived to be over 100 years.
13. Harriet Carpenter 1811 - 1905 my 3rd great grandmother is living in New York. She will relocate to Wabasha county Minnesota 2 years later with her children and their families. Harriet is the mother of Betsy Anderson.
14. John Theodore Lockwood 1840- 1911 and Betsy Eddington 1842 - 1924 . They are my 2nd great grandparents and are living in Wisconsin. John fought in the civil war 1864 to 1865. Was with the Calvary out of Wisconsin.
