Monticello -
MR. A. M. McKINNEY
, of Achilles, Rawlins county, Kansas, writes that he has never seen a county of richer lands or better adapted to agricultural pursuits than Piatt county.  when he began housekeeping, in a small frame house, where the brick store building occupied by W. E. Smith now stands, Monticello was then a village of 300 or 400 inhabitants.  Decatur was the nearest village, and of less enterprise than Monticello.  Springfield was the nearest town where a cook stove and set of chairs or bedstead could be purchased.  There were two stores of general merchandise in Monticello, Joseph Kee's and Daniel Stickel's.  James Hollingsworth kept some groceries, J. C. Johnson, and John Tenbrooke were hotel proprietors.  Dr. Ward had a practice extending some twenty-five or thirty miles around.  There was a church organization, but only occasional preaching.  Daniel Stickel was superintendent of the Sunday-school, which was held in the court-house.  The literary society was the chief entertainment, and prominent among its leaders were Jacob and Noah Piatt.  That was a memorable winter in the history of Monticello and Piatt county.  When the heavy winter snows began to melt, the river mills were so damaged by the surplus water that all milling had to be done at the Springfield steam mills.  Mr. McKionney also mentions the suffering caused by a traveler who stopped at Tenbrooke's hotel, and brought small-pox into the county.  The first death was that of Mrs. Bailey's little girl at the hotel, and there were but few families that entirely escaped the disease.  Death and mourning were in almost every house, and there was much suffering from want of care.  Two young men, the Crane boys, would surely have died for want of care, had not George Young, of Friends Creek, offered to nurse them without charge.  It was a terrible winter, and will not soon be forgotten by those who lived there.

MR. ABRAHAM MARQUISS, SR., was born in Virginia, Jan. 5, 1789.  His father, William Marquiss, was of English descent and was born in Virginia, Aug. 90, 1766, and married Sarah Peters, of Irish descent, who was born Dec. 25, 1765.  The following names of their children were taken from their family bible:  Hannah, born Sept. 5, 1787; Abraham; Anna, born 1790, and died in 1791; Elizabeth, who was born June 28, 1792, and died Oct. 1, 1812; Sarah, born May 26, 1794; Martha, born April 21, 1793; Hester, born Feb. 3, 1800; Ianna, born Feb. 14, 1803; William, born Feb. 3, 1807, and Permelia, born Jul. 3, 1809.  Of these children, the subject of this sketch, and Permelia, the youngest of family, came to what is now Piatt county in Oct. of 1833.  Mr. George Barnes, Mr. Marquiss' brother-in-law, came to the county at the same time, with the following children:  William, John, Elizabeth, Mary and Sarah.  He was again married in 1834 and moved to near where Wm. Foster now lives.  By his last wife he had the following children after he moved to DeWitt county; Henry, Rebecca, Hannah and George.  The children of Mr. Austin Phillips, who married Mr. Marquiss' sister, also came out west with the families mentioned.  They were raised by Mr. Abraham MarquissHenry Phillips, born in December, 1819, married Sarah Karr, and lived a number of years on the place Frank Lodge lives on; he now lives in Missouri; Joseph Phillips, born Feb. 13, 1821, married and lived on the place Mr. George Lodge lives on; Aaron Phillips, born in May, 1826, died after moving to Iowa; Martha Phillips, born Jan. 12, 1828, became the wife of Jno.

Piatt until his death in 1859.  He was a successful farmer, and assisted all of his children to obtain a home.  He was a practicing physician, a soldier in the war of 1812 in his young days, and after moving to Piatt county was justice of the peace for a time and became one of the most influential men of the county.  He was married about 1809 in Ohio, to Elizabeth Barnes, a native of Pennsylvania.  They raised seven children, of whom Ezra Marquiss, Sr. (see his sketch) is the oldest; for John Marquiss see his sketch; William Marquiss was never married, and died in Missouri; Clarinda married William Piatt (see his sketch); Charles Marquiss married Elizabeth E. Hubbart, lived for a number of years in Goose Creek township, and then moved to Missouri, where he now lives.  Of their children, Nancy married Henry Moffett and lives in Missouri.  The names of the other children are Ellen, Henry, Isaac, Clara, Ellsworth, Eddie and Edna; Elizabeth Marquiss married Mr. Samuel Bender, and died leaving one daughter, Effie; Henry Marquiss at the time of his death, was on his father's old home-place.

Goose Creek Twp. -
MR. EZRA MARQUISS, SR., was born in Ohio June 11, 1813, and when twenty years old emigrated with his father to what is now Goose Creek Township, Piatt Co., in which part of the county he has lived ever since.  Previous to leaving Ohio, he had formed an attachment for the person Ann Maria Norris, who afterward became his wife.  The young ladies in this then new country did not efface this early attachment, so that it was not long after he had moved here ere he took unto himself a wife, and located on the farm he still lives on.  The picture of the cabin they went to housekeeping in is in this book.  Here they lived a number of years.  He, in the strength of his young manhood, worked hard early and late, while his wife was noted as being unusually skillful and energetic in taking care of the hose.  She was a great worker, and until disease entered her system knew not what it was to lose a moment from morn till night.  As the years wore on Mr. Marquiss added acre after acre to his well-tilled farm, until old age found him possessor of thousands rather than hundreds of acres, and he generously supplied his children with farms in as good locations as any others in the county.  The names of his children who reached the age of maturity are Seymour, Clarinda, Pelina, Ezra and Mary E.  All of these are mentioned elsewhere, except Ezra, who married Esther Suver and with his two children, Grace and Jean, reside on his father's old homestead.  Ezra, jr., was in the late war, and his wife was a student St. Mary's in Indiana.  Quite a good-sized house now adorns the home farm.  With its long two-story porch one can imagine it a house of a southern rather than a western state.  Ezra Marquiss, sr., has been connected with almost every link in the history of Goose Creek township, as well as that of the entire county for nearly the last fifty years.  He has ever been a loyal citizen, and the republican party has not another person in Piatt county who has worked so zealously for it.  The Agricultural society owes very much of its present prosperous condition to him.  There is probably not another man in the county so generally known as he is.  With his horses and carriage he has driven all over the county a number of times, so that "Uncle Ezra," is a familiar name in half the homes of the county.  The children all know him and love him.  He ahs never yet found a child who would not go to him.  This affection of the little folks speaks well for the heart of any person.  Mrs. Marquiss died about three years ago.

MR. HENRY MARQUISS (deceased) was united in marriage October  30, 1851, to Mary Jane Corn.  The next day after their marriage they went housekeeping in the house erected by Mr. Abraham Marquiss, on the place Mrs. Marquiss now lives.  is was their home, with the exception of a few years' residence in Monticello, until Mr. Marquiss' death.  Their eldest son, Willie, died June 18, 1873.  Willie was loved by all who knew him, and in spite of his long years of suffering found time for many of kind act, and was ever ready with a smile for his friends.  Oliver Marquiss and Sadie White were married March 9, 1881, and now live on the home farm.  John A., who is now attending the Illinois State University, and Emma E., are among the successful teachers of the county.  James E. has charge of the home farm, while Harry is now attending school in Monticello.  Mr. Henry Marquiss was an invalid for a number of years, but at last his sufferings were over.  He died Dec. 18, 1868.  Mr. Mary J. Marquiss is the same kind, genial, thoughtful woman she has ever been.  She has had trials, but she has borne them bravely, and is recognized as one of the best neighbors in the township.

MR. SEYMOUR MARQUISS, one of the most influential farmers near De Land, was born in 1837, in Mr. Ezra Marquiss' log cabin, a cut of which appears in this book.  He was married Dec. 19, 1861, to Caroline McMillen, of Champaign county.  In May, 1862, they moved onto the farm they now live on.  When Mr. Marquiss was asked if he had held any offices, he very duteously replied that he had been pathmaster, commissioner of highways, town clerk for two years, township collector for three years, and school director for six years "without any cessation of hostilities."

MR. JESSE MONROE (deceased) a farmer, was born in Maryland.  His father was a soldier in the revolution.  He married Sarah Gordon, a native of Ohio.  Her father was a captain in a spy company in the revolutionary war.  At an early day, 1828, Mr. and Mrs. Monroe settled in Indiana.  Later, in 1836, after some of their family were married, they moved to Piatt county, Illinois, to help locate their children.  William Monroe and James Utterback came and entered land for themselves and Mr. Jesse Monroe, in 1836, which was the first entry of land in Unity township.  Mr. Monroe, the subject of our sketch, had seven daughters and six sons.  Four of his sons died in their youth.  At the time of his settling in this county, four of the children were married.  Two of them, however, moved with their father, and the others came at a later date.  William Monroe married Sarah J. Moore in Indiana, and moved to Piatt county in 1836.  Eliza married Mr. William Crain, and lived on what is yet often called Crain farm, although owned by a near dozen different persons.  She had three boys and two girls.  Harvey married Cynthia Lane, of Indiana.  After living two years in this county, he moved to Indiana, where, after coming home from the army, he died, leaving three children.  Sarah E. married Samuel Hamilton, and moved into Douglas county.  They have three children.  John Crain is married, and lives on a part of the Crain farm (see his name). Emily married John Clapp, and lives on the old Crain homestead.  Frank Crain, now of Gainesville, Texas, was married in 1874, to Mary E. Layson, who died in 1877.  He next married Lizzie Tutin, a native of Wisconsin.  They have one daughter.  He went to Texas in 1877, and is a stock dealer there.  Martha Monroe married Mr. James Utterback in Indiana, and moved to Piatt county in 1836.  They lived in this county for about twenty years, and then moved to Iowa, where he has become quite a wealthy and prominent citizen.  Ruth Monroe married Mr. Samuel Mosbarger, and lives in Douglas county.  They have seven children, all grown.  Sarah Monroe and Mr. Joseph Taylor married about 1838, and were the first couple married in Unity township.  The wedding ceremony was performed on the place where Richard Monroe now lives.  Mrs. Taylor married Mr. Thomas Goodson, and now lives in Tuscola.  Nancy Monroe married Ezra Fay (see his name).  Lydia Monroe married Mr. John Cook, and moved to Champaign.  Both are dead.  Two of their daughters married, but died of consumption, each leaving one child.  Three of Mr. Cook's sons are living.  Richard Monroe lives on the old homestead place (see his name).  Mary E. Monroe married Mr. Gamalial Gregory (see his name).  Two of Mr. Jesse Mornoe's children, Jesse, Richard's twin brother, who died at the age of fourteen, and Harrison H., died within two days of each other, and were the first ones buried in Unity township.

MR. WILLIAM MONROE, formerly a resident farmer in this county, moved back to Indiana in 1865 and has remained there since.  He was married Jan. 28, 1835, to Sarah J. Moore.  They have never had any children, but have done their share of taking care of others' children.  During their married life they have had in charge as many as thirty-four children, sending twenty-two of them to school.  Eight girls have been married form their house.  The first winter, 1836-7, that Mr. Monroe spent in Piatt county he lived in the same house with Mr. James Utterback and family.  On Jan. 8, 1837, he moved into his own house, a log cabin 16x18 feet.  The cabin was not yet complete.  The roof was on and the floor laid, but a bed-quilt served as a door, while the fireplace was only built half-way to the mantle-piece and the hearth was not filled up.  Two elm logs were thrown in the back of the fireplace to build the fire against, and in lieu of chairs and table Mr. and Mrs. Monroe sat in front of the fireplace on the edge of the floor, having their food placed on the floor between them.  On the day they moved Mr. Monroe killed a deer, and the wolves getting scent of it followed him home.  That evening as he and his wife cooked in and ate the meat off the bones they threw them over the incomplete chimney into the yard, where they were eagerly snatched up by the waiting wolves without.  When Mr. Monroe went out to drive them off they ran away, barking like little dogs.  This winter proved to be quite a severe one.  Mr. Monroe gradually completed his cabin, but in the meantime he used often to find their bed in the morning covered by an inch or two of snow.  Mr. Monroe made quite a narrow escape with his life at the time of a sudden freeze in 1836.  He and James Utterback started to East Fork, Coles county, for corn, while the show was about knee deep.  It began raining and continued until the grown was covered with a slush of snow and water.  The men's clothes were thoroughly soaked with water and they were about half-way across the prairie when suddenly a piercing, fierce cold wind struck them.  In ten minutes the slush was frozen sufficiently to bear the weight of a man.  They unhitched their teams, leaving the oxen, while each mounted a horse and ran down to a Mr. Holden's.  When they reached Mr. Holden's Mr. Monroe could not get off his horse.  He was frozen fast to the hair of the horse, so that they had to pull him loose.  He was then taken into the house, where all possible care was given him.  It was over a week before they god their teams home.  When Mr. Monroe got home after his trip for corn,  he found Mr. Christopher Mosbarger, an old millwright, there, with his tools.  As the folks were without bread, the millwright exclaimed, "Boys, get your oxen and grub hoes and cut the ice; by gracious, we makes a mill with prairie "nigger-heads.'"  In about four days the mill, first on Lake Fork, was complete.  The same mill was afterward moved to where Atwood now is and was run by a horse.  It would grind from ten to twenty bushels a day.  Mr. Monroe's folks were in the county five years before officers of any kind found them.  Mr. William Monroe got up a petition which led to the location of a road from Monticello to Lake Fork, the first local road in that section of the county.  William Monroe and Hiram Heath made the furrow across to Monticello.  John Tenbrooke was the surveyor.  After this, William Monroe got up and circulated a petition for the opening of a state road from Charleston to Bloomington.  The legislature granted the petition and Daniel Stickle and Judge Hughes were appointed commissioners.  George Heath was surveyor.  The new road traversed the county very nearly in the track of the old road, which crossed from Monticello to the head of the timber, crossed the Fork and on down on the east side of the stream.  A mail route was established, the mail postmaster, and was on the land owned by Mr. Samuel Harshbarger.  The postoffice was moved to Mr. Jesse Monroe's house and Richard Monroe was appointed postmaster.  The route was discontinued after the Toledo, Wabash & Warsaw railroad was built.  Mr. Monroe, when he went to Vandalia to enter his land, carried apple seeds home in his saddlebags and planted them.  He reports that he and his neighbors did well in their farming.  They were all sociable and peaceable.  Nor were they lacking in hospitality.  Mr. Monroe states that he has taken persons into the house to stay over night, until in the morning those nearest the door would actually have to get out of the way to permit the others to arise.

MR. R. B. MOODY, grain merchant, De Land, is a native of Ohio, from which state his parents moved to De Witt county in 1855.  In 1868 Mr. Moody moved to Piatt county, and lived for a time on Mr. Calef's place.  In 1870 he moved on to what is now Mr. Samuel Reed's place, and in the fall of 1873 he moved into De Land, and built the first store building in the town.  He was married in 1868, to Rumina M. Hassinger, of Ohio.  they had no children of their own, but adopted four of his and his wife's brother's and sister's children.  Mr. Moody has held his share of offices - if one who does his duty in them ever does have his share.  He has been overseer of highways, school director, constable, assessor, notary public, township treasurer and justice of the peace.  He went to the army in Co. E of the 20th Ill. Inf., and was out from 1861 to 1864.  The principal battles in which he engaged were those of Fredericktown, Fort Henry, Fort Donelson and Shiloh, at which place he was wounded.  When asked if he was an officer in the army he replied: "Oh, yes, yes; I was high private in the rear rank."
