Genealogical and Historical Society
Walter R. Sanders and Mrs. Eldridge Roberts (formerly Mary Frances
Hills)
The names Allison and Allinson are used
interchangeably
in
many records, Allison being most common. Allison Cemetery is located on
what is known as Allison's Mound, west of Jacksonville, formerly
Olmstead's
Mound. A Mr. Olmstead erected a log cabin on the mound in 1820, and
this
is where the first election of Morgan County officers was held, and the
first Circuit Court convened in April of 1823. The legal description of
the property is East half Section 31, Township 15 North, Range 11 West
3rd Principal Meridian. The listing of tombstones was done by Walter R.
Sanders of Litchfield. This is combined with a new family listing by
Mrs.
Eldridge Roberts, formerly Mary Frances Hills whose relatives are in
this
cemetery.
