RE: Cemeteries of Brown County
Dear
Jim,
Here's
the information you requested:
From
Cemeteries of Brown County, Illinois
Mt
Sterling Catholic Cemetery, p. 175
Nicolas
Monckton, 1827 - 1912
Catherine
Drew, wife of Nicholas Monckton, 1843 - 22 Apr 1902 [day and month from p.409]
Mary E.
Monckton, dau of John and Bridget Monckton, 1885 - 1967
These
do not look like the people you are looking for. There are no other Nickolas's
listed in the Cemeteries book. I suggest looking in the 1900 Census to see if
he shows up there. It appears that he may have left the County before his
death.
Sorry,
I coiuldn't be more help.
Sincerely,
Ken
Huffman

Hi
I'm
trying to trace my family on my Mother's side, Monckton.
This
family left Ireland towards the end of the 19th century and settled in
Mt
Sterling.
My
great-grandfather was Nicholas Monckton who was born in 1853 and
emigrated
to the US about 1891. I've lost track of him from that time but
noticed
2 listings for Nicholas Monckton in the Brown County cemetery book,
one on
page 175 and the other on page 409. I do know that he married Mary
O'Neal
and the book lists Mary Monckton on page 175 and Monckton, Wife (of
Nicholas)________
on page 409.
I would
be grateful for any further details.
Thanks
in anticipation
Jim
