• Notes

  From: History of Madison County, Illinois : illustrated : with biographical sketches of many prominent men and pioneers. (W. R. Brink & Co., Edwardsville, IL, 1882), pp. 71-76: Ezekiel Gillham, the oldest son of the original Thomas Gillham, was married in Virginia, and moved to what is now Oglethorpe county, Georgia. One of his sons and two of his daughters, Charles, Mary and Margaret, came to Illinois in 1803. Charles Gillham settled the Phillips farm, southeast of Edwardsville, and his daughter, Lucretia, became the wife of John T. Lusk. Mary married Thomas Good in Georgia. Good settled two miles and a half south of Edwardsville. His wife was a Methodist, and on his farm were held the early Methodist camp meetings. Margaret had married in Georgia Bryant Mooney. Mooney settled about a mile east of Edwardsville, and gave his name to Mooney's branches.
