Both Marcus and a Thomas HARRIS appear in 1850 Illinois (Rock Island area) census as neighbors. Thomas is said to be descendant of Jacob HARRIS of your county (Jacob's son and born 1816 in Ohio) in local Rock Island history book. I seek verification that Marcus was also son of Jacob HARRIS.

My grandmother was born in Mishawaka 2-9-29. Her name is Eleanor Eugenia (Brinck) Graham. She now resides in Texas. Her parents were Francis Eleanor (Herzog) Brinck, born 2-7-1897, and Chester Charles Brinck, born ?. Chester's father was the mayor of Mishawaka for a period of time unknown to me. I am trying to find out Chester and Fran's parents names, I know Chester is from there, and I think Fran is, as well. My problem is that when an ancester of Chester fought in the Civil War (assuming Union, Regiment ?) his surname was Romberg (uncertain of spelling) and since there were 2 Rombergs in his company, he was told that he would have to change his name. He changed it to Brinck. I am looking for information on Fran's and Chester's parents and am hoping to find out anything about this name change...how to spell Romberg, his regiment, company...etc anything. Also, I know that Fran's father owned a furniture store: Herzog's Furniture, and that she was of german descent, possibly 2 or 3 generations from immigrants. Her family was devoutly Catholic, with several nuns in the family. She had a sister named Mildred Mary Herzog who never married but was born 10-6-1893.
