| Notes |
- Marshall and Nancy Silliman at Hallock Township, Peoria County, IL in 1860, ages 48 and 44 years. # 648.
"Mr. Silliman has resided ever since his first marriage on his present farm, composed of 160 acres of fine land; also owns fifty acres in section 21, of Chillicothe township; a farm of 320 acres in Vermillion county, Ill.; and another of 400 acres in Iroquois county, Ill. All this land, except about 100 acres, is fine farming land, and under good improvement. ... His eldest son is in business at Chenoa, Ill., and his younger is engaged in the grain business in Dunlap, and also runs a general wagon and carriage repair shop there. Mr. Silliman has of late years enjoyed but poor health, but has been an active and useful man in his township, filling many offices, among them that of supervisor, which he held for seven successive years. In religious faith he is a Universalist, and in politics a consistent Democrat."(History of Peoria County)
