I received the following e-mail from Monica on September 29, 1998.
I found another connection between the Greathouse and Etherton lines.
Elizabeth M. Etherton born 1813 Married Stephen Golliher.
Their son Rufus born 1830 in Jackson CO. IL married Caroline Crowell.
Rufus and Caroline had a son :
John Logan Golliher born Jan 6, 1852 Died June 22, 1925
buried in Oakland Cemetery
John Married Isadore Greathouse (the marriage index lists two dates) Jan 3,
1874 and Jan. 1, 1875
Isadore Greathouse is a sister to Missouri Arabell Greathouse who married
Jefferson Davis Etherton.
Isadore was born June 6, 1854 in Jackson CO. IL
died May 9, 1931
buried in Oakland cemetery
I got the connections from the Jackson CO death abstracts, IL marriage index,
and Jackson CO cemetery books which listed the parents and from Golliher
researchers who had the same information.
