Interested in any information on Charles M. WORTHINGHAM (born 6/5/61) and
Lydia m. WORTHINGHAM (born 8/31/49). They were the children of Morrison
Worthingham and Sarah Ann Worthingham (BARKER). Morrison was killed near
Murphreesburo Tennessee on 12/31/61. He was a 2nd Lt. with the 100th
Illinois, Co. "K" out of Joliet. Sarah later married Enos BROWN on 3/8/65
but Charles and Lydia were made the custody of Wellington B. Worthingham
(Morrison's father or brother?) on 3/24/65. I believe the children stayed in
Joliet while Sarah and Enos moved to LaSalle County. Sarah was later awarded
guardianship of Charles on 2/26/69. Lydia was already over 18 years of age.
Events in Joliet were in Will county and events in LaSalle county took place
in Ottawa. That's where my trail runs cold. I am trying to make a connection
between Morrison Worthingham and any Worthinghams in Minnesota. Thank You

Looking for information on Philander DOWD. He is shown as a soldier of the
12th Infantry CO. B for the Civil War out of Mendota. I believe he was born
in Vinton Cty, Ohio and moved to the Mendota area and possibly met his wife
Sarah Alice there. I do not know her maiden name. There is a grave in
Macarthur, Ohio for a Philander DOWD b Oct. 14, 1838 and d August 5, 1859.
These dates do not give the chance of Philander being in the Civil War, but
this name is unusual and I am hoping to find a connection. He supposedly had
a daughter named Rose. Linda
