Hi Ada,
You don't even have to write. You can call them and they will very likely look it up. If they have some information the clerk will usually copy it for a small fee and mail it to you. Do you have his wife Sarah Green's ancestry?

Ada,

I have a direct line to Francis Cooke and others through Elkanah Cushman to Martha Cushman and Nathaniel…

Hi
I did some Washburn research about 20 years ago because I thought I was related to them. I have attached a gedcom for you.

George Holmes said… - My Holmes line came to Peoria County, in about 1845-46. The father Hanford Holmes moved there from Westchester county, New York. He died in 1846 in Peoria, His wife was Margaret nee Rogers Holmes. Children were James Rogers, Joseph Hanford Cluss Holmes and Elizabeth Rachel Holmes Gedney.
I didn't see any of those you listed that I know were linked to mine. However, just recently I've discovered some of Margaret's brothers in Peoria County as well.so it looks like there was a major immigration of their relatives from New York to Peoria County. Most of my Holmes line settled in the Princeville and Akron Townships.
