Surnames involved are: CROSIER, ELDRIDGE, GILLETT & KNOWLTON. Ephraim KNOWLTON (b. 1795, Rowe, Massachusetts) and his wife Sally ELDRIDGE (b. allegedly in 18 Mar 1800 in Charlmont, Mass.) came to the Roseville area in mid 1850's from Rowe, MA , after spending some time in Ashtabula County, Ohio. Ephraim allegedly died in Roseville on 4 Dec 1856. Would like to confirm his death date and place of burial. Also the date of death, place of death and place of burial of Sally ELDRIDGE KNOWLTON. There are ELDRIDGE's buried on the northwest section of the Roseville Cemetery who very well may be connected to Sally. They may also be related to the first wife of John Clark KNOWLTON, Ephraim and Sally's son. Her name was Elvira ELDRIDGE KNOWLTON (d. in 1853 at the age of 35, near Roseville) and is buried in the the northwest section of the Roseville Cemetery (just north of several ELDRIDGE graves) next to her husband, John Clark KNOWLTON (b. 22 July 1826 in Rowe, MA). After Elvira died John remarried, but we've lost that information as to who, except recall the information indicated that the marriage took place on the bride's father's residence around 1854. John Clark KNOWLTON was a captain in the Illinois 11th Cavalry Company H. He died in 1863, not sure where. It is unknown if there were any children born to either of John's wives. We do know that at least one of the Roseville ELDRIDGE's was born in Ashtabula County, Ohio. Mary Jane KNOWLTON married Oscar F. GILLETT (b. 14 Dec 1829 in Ashtabula County, Ohio) in March of 1852 in New Lyme, Ohio and moved to Roseville, Illinois in 1853. They had nine children. Oscar died on 3 Nov 1912 in Avon, Illinois. Mary and Oscar are buried in Holeman-Olive cemetery just outside of Avon. We are interested in more information on Mary Jane KNOWLTON GILLETT. Also interested in information on Rhoda KNOWLTON (b. 16 Feb 1818 in Rowe, Massachusetts) who was married to Rodney CROSIER. They were living next to Ephraim KNOWLTON in Ashtabula County, Ohio in the 1850 Ohio Census, evidently moved to Warren County, Illinois around 1853. There appears to be a connection between all the above. They all came to Warren County, Illinois at about the same time period and from the same area of Ohio. We would be interested in communicating with any descendants of the above persons. We will share any information we have. Thank you. Terry & Lucy Hardy 200 Lindhardt Rd.
