My Great Grandfather and family lived in Rankin, IL., and is listed in 1900 US Census.His name was Lewis (Louis) Bartlett Wilson. His wife Mary and sons Byron and John L., are in the home. His father, not in the home, was Lemuel Wilson. Lewis was b. in MO., 1853, and was back in MO., abt. 1906.
Lewis and his siblings are also known to have lived in Paxton and Ludlow.
Are there still Wilsons in the Rankin area? What genealogy research resources are available in the area? All help appreciated.
