Message Board Post:
Looking for help with the following:
My great grandmother was Lula Cissell (or Cecil). She married my great grandfather, William Higdon in Daviess County KYabt 1900. I believe her father was Robert Linus Cissell (or Cecil) from Marion County, KY b. 1852 and her mother was Lila Jane Willett. Can anyone provide me with any information on this family?
Thanks,
Mike Walker

I am a direct descendent of Ethelbert Cissell who married Elizabetha Maria Mattingly. He was born, lived and died in St. Mary's County, Maryland. His only child was Elizabeth Maria Cissell/Cecil. He was a justice of the peace in SMC, MD and is buried in SMC, MD.
There was another member of the Cissell family, named Augustine Ethelbert Cissell who was married to a woman named Harriett. They moved from Maryland to Kentucky. There are some sources who have these two men documented as one and the same. They are in fact two seperate people.

Jim, do you know what part of Kentucky your Cissells came from? Mine were in Nelson County & then moved to Daviess/Martin Counties in Indiana. Prior to Kentucky they were in Maryland. We probably have the same ancestors.

I am a James William Cissell. I am not familiar with the ancestors you listed. I have not done much research on my family lineage. I do know that my family comes from a line of Cissell's from Kentucky. There are quite a few of us Cissell's in the Indianapolis area.
I just did a name search and found your message. Feel free to respond, sorry I am not of much help.
Jim Cissell
