Misc. Notes
1. From the 1900 US Census, Kentucky, Casey, District 3, Casey Creek, ED 22, Sheet 6B, Enumerated 11 June 1900, Lines 95-97:
Sallie B. Childers; Servant; Born Mar 1869; Age 31; Divorced; Mother of 2 children, 2 still living; POB Kentucky; Father POB Kentucky; Mother POB Kentucky; Occupation - Housekeeper.
Rosa E. Childers; Boarder; Born Mar 1893; Age 7; POB Kentucky; Father POB Kentucky; Mother POB Kentucky.
James D. Childers; Boarder; Born Oct 1899; Age 7/12; POB Kentucky; Father POB Kentucky; Mother POB Kentucky.
[note]: Sallie and her children are listed on this census living with the family of Elijah Gilpin. Sallie is listed as Divorced [?] and Servant. The children are listed as Boarders. Although not confirmed, it is assumed that Sallie was married to Baxter Coffey first, so I am confused why her children are listed with the surname Childers on this census. Baxter Coffey is said to have died in a blizzard, so why is Sallie listed as divorced in this census? Maybe they divorced before Baxter died?
2. Death certificate mentions Sallie was seeing her doctor for her tuberculosis from 5 July 1917 through her death on 2 July 1922. Also mentioned was the fact that she was in the city of Peoria for two years prior to her death. Death certificate also shows age of 57 and birth date of 186? [not legible].
3. Info from Sallie’s obituary, sent to me by Claire Sloop and received from the Logan County Genelogy & Historical Society, June 2004:
“Today I got Sallie's obit - she was in a Tuberculosis sanitarium for 2 years. She had been an invalid for 4 years. She was born March 11, 1865 in KY, and died at age 57years, 3months, 21 days. She left behind her husband, two daughters and one son - Mrs. Rose Stapleton, Lincoln, IL - Charlotte Comstock, Spokane, WA, and Delmar Coffey, Lincoln, IL.”

Misc. Notes
1. Baxter is listed in the 1880 US Census living with his brother, James W. Coffey and wife, Salley. This Salley has the same birth year and place as Baxter’s wife, Sallie Childers. It may be possible this census is wrong, and Salley is Baxter’s wife, and NOT James’ wife. [596]
2. Baxter’s daughter, Rosa has John Coffey listed on her death certificate as father’s name. Was Baxter’s real name John Baxter?

Misc. Notes
1. Paraphrased from newspaper clippings of the Chicago Daily Tribune, 1934: John Wesley came to Illinois from Kentucky with his parents in a covered wagon when he was 9 yrs. old. A lean and expert jockey at the Lincoln, Illinois race track in 1859, he had just turned 11 yrs. old when he was brought to the attention of Abraham Lincoln, then in need of a carriage driver and groom. Lincoln went to the boy’s house and persuaded his parents to let John live with the Lincolns in their Springfield, Illinois home. He shared a bed with Mr. Lincoln’s son, Robert who was two yrs. older. John drove Lincoln’s carriage for 9 months and earned 25 cents/day, up until Lincoln’s election in 1860 as President of the United States. When the Civil War began, John enlisted as a drummer in April of 1862, at age 14. He joined the 7th Illinois Infantry, Company E. This was the first regiment formed in Illinois. He never saw Lincoln again after the election.
2. From a taped interview with Bea Wakenshaw Nov 2001: “ Grandpa Comstock is buried in Lincoln Cemetery (Lincoln, Illinois). Aunt Eva had a bronze plate made and put on his casket with all his dates, etc... on it. It was buried with his casket, and there was no (?) marker. The grave was by a big tree, but this tree might have been moved or cut down when the road was changed in the cemetery. And his grave might have been moved as well.” [UPDATE - May 2005]: John’s grave has been found and was not moved. He is buried next to his first wife, Mahulda in the Old Union Cemetery in Lincoln. Their graves were unmarked. A new stone now resides on their graves with their names and dates, and John’s Civil War service dates. A brick with John’s name also resides at the new Veteran’s Memorial in downtown Lincoln, along with the other veterans from Logan County, Ill.

7. Information on John W. Comstock’s military service during the Civil War, sent to me by Claire Sloop and received from the Logan County Genelogy & Historical Society, June 2004:
“In finding that John W. Comstock had a military marker on his grave at Union Cemetery, I looked at this rather close to see if I had the right John W. Comstock. Here are my findings: He is buried near Mahulda in Union Cemetery, and has a military marker with this military information. I looked up Company E, 7th IL Vol. Inf., and it shows that he enlisted for a three year term, on August 7, 1862, giving his address as Springfield. The fact that he would have been only 14 years old could have been why he gave Springfield as his address, as he would have lied about his age. Anyhow, on August 1, 1864, he deserted. If this is fact your John, he saw a number of battles, and the write up below shows that on July 29, 1864, all non-veterans were released. A week later, he deserted.”

Misc. Notes
1. From the 1910 US Census, Illinois, Logan, West Lincoln Township; 1403 4th Street; ED 60; Enumerated 22 Apr 1910; Sheet 15A; Lines 39 - 42:
John Comstock; Head; Age 65; Married “M2”; Time at present marriage 8 years; POB Kentucky; Father POB Kentucky; Mother POB Kentucky; Occupation - Ditcher, Tile; Survivor or Union or Confederate Army or Navy - Yes.
Sallie Comstock; Wife; Age 46; Married “M1”; Time at present marriage 8 years; Mother of 2 children, 2 still living; POB Kentucky; Father POB Kentucky; Mother POB Kentucky.
Lottie Comstock; Daughter; Age 7; POB Kentucky; Father POB Kentucky; Mother POB Kentucky; Does NOT attend school.
Elmer Comstock; Son; Age 11; POB Kentucky; Father POB Kentucky; Mother POB Kentucky; Does NOT attend school.
[note]: Elmer Comstock, listed here as age 11, may be James Delmar Coffey (who was also 11 in 1910), Sallie’s son from her first marriage to Baxter Coffey. Elmer’s age here rules out him being John’s son, Clarence Elmer from his first wife, Mahulda. Clarence Elmer was age 25, married, and living in California by 1910. I suspect James Delmar Coffey may have been called Elmer in this census. This census also shows John and Sallie were only married 8 years prior to 1910. Lottie is listed as age 7, so I must assume she is the daughter of John and Sallie Comstock. Although no marriage records for John and Sallie have been found. Neither have any birth records for Lottie Comstock been found.
