Lewis came to Warren County from Loudoun County, VA around the 1830's then by the 1840's had moved on to Adams County, Illinois. His sister Mahala married Thomas Unglesbee/by who I think is the brother to William Unglesbee who married Margaret Sheets. They stayed in the area and so I've been looking for family info about them. I got the will for Mahala but it only lists her children. Her other brother Nelson Kendall also lived in the area and I found an obit for him through the Dayton paper. They lived in Ridgeville and I hear many of the grave stones from there were used as doorsteps so I haven't found cemetery records. Their mother was Margaret Kendall/Kindle who lived with Mahala in 1850." |
