Winkel Family in Smithville, Illinois
Is there any possibility Brandi that you might be able to confirm that my ancestor Christian/Christopher Winkel was living at some time in Smithville near Peoria? The likely time is from after his marriage to Anna Mary Schumann in Ohio in 1858. He is to be found in Malone Township, near Delavan, Tazewell County in the 1870 Census - so it is the inbetween time that I am interested in. A History of Tazewell County suggests he was after his marriage a cooper in Smithville. I cannot find him there in the 1860 Census however. Is there any alternative records I could try? Brandi - I am thanking you in advance if you can be of any help with this matter & I will for sure be wanting to send you something in appreciation & to cover costs.
