After Mourning died, John was living with Thomas in 1850 and with Warner in
1860 and 1870.
Mouring is buried with her daughters, Julia Ann and Permelia, along with
Permelia's husband, Lorenzso Rathbone, in Rathbone Cemetery in Hamilton
County. Julia's stone is not dated and broken - the lower portion
illegible.
Two biographical sketches about John are available on the Yesteryears of
Hamilton County, Illinois website (http: www.carolyar.com/Illinois/HamiltonCounty.htm).
One is by Patrick Anderson and another by Harry Ward. They detail the
following:
John Anderson was born May 10, 1780 on the Little Marrowbone
Creek in Henry County, Virginia, and died March 19, 1873 in Hamilton County,
Illinois. His birth date is recorded in the Bible of his youngest sister,
Urshula Kief (nee Anderson) now held by the Anderson family of Morganfield,
Kentucky. By 1789 his father, Armstead Anderson, and mother, Urshula
Farris Anderson started moving their family west, settling first in Tennessee
and then in Kentucky. John and Mourning then went on to Illinois about 1819,
followed much of both of their families.
After settling on lands to the west of McLeansboro, obtained by a warrant of his
wife's brother's service in the Black Hawk War, John continued in the
tradition of his carpenter ancestors by building a credible home on land now the
fairgrounds west of McLeansboro. His home was chosen to host the first
Hamilton County, Illinois Court meeting.
John died on March 19, 1873. He had outlived the availability of the old
Rathbone family cemetery where Mourning and two of their daughters were buried
and was therefore buried in Union Hill/Shedd Cemetery west of McLeansboro.
