If any of you have a Prudence (Chrisman) Moore, I'd sure like to hear about
it. She married John Moore, who seems to have died about 1834, leaving her
with children James, John Eliza, Martha, Alfred and Charles Moore in what is
now Woodford County, IL. I think it was Tazewell or McLean County at the
time. Prudence later moved in with her daughter Eliza Jane (Moore) Atterberry
in Macon Co., MO, and died there in 1883 or so. I think Prudence was born in
VA (censuses), but none of the people with Virginia Chrismans have seen her
so far. Probably born around 1800.

I have a copy of a brief biograph of Jacob "Chritzman" who was born c.
1833 in Harrisburg, PA, the son of Henry Chritzman and Margaret Zigler.
Henry was born in Gettysburg, PA (date not given).
Six of Henry and Margaret's children were living at the time the bio was
written and published in the History of Bureau Co., IL. They were:
Maria (Mrs. Bigler)
Charlotte (Mrs. Black)
Jacob (subject of the bio)
Christian
Harry
George
Bio says Jacob Chritzman left PA in 1853, lived for 1 year in Minnesota,
then 1 year in Mt. Carroll, ILL. In 1855 he came to Princeton, Bureau
Co., IL.
In 1859 Jacob married Rachel Jane Knox. At time of bio they had 2 living
children -- Lottie and Clarence.
Any of the above sound familiar? If you connect to these people, send me
your address and I will mail you the complete bio. They are not the line
I am researching.
