I have RUSSELL ancestors that lived in Hancock County, Illinois in the 1870 Census. William G. RUSSELL and family lived in Hancock County, IL in 1870 and in 1860 they lived in Hamilton County, Ohio and in the 1860 census they moved to White County, IL. William's daughter Anna RUSSELL married William J. STEPHENS in February 13, 1870 possibly in Hancock County or Henderson County. They lived in Henderson County in the 1870 and 1880 census.

My dad's five generation pedigree sheet shows each and every person with ties from Hancock County, Illinois. I even have a book written by a great uncle about the people of Carthage, Illinois during the 1930's. I dearly love the area and have researched the county since 2005.
