I'm trying to find relatives in Illinois. My grandmother's name was Minnie Ann McClanahan,,born in Pope County in or about 1894. She married Arthur Davis,who was born in or about 1883, and had a daughter,Ida Mae,who was born in 1914. When Ida Mae was an infant,they got in a boat and traveled downriver to Hickman,Ky,where they resided the rest of their years and had more children. If anyone has any knowledge of my grandmother or grandfather,I'd really appreciate any information. Thank you. |
