The History of Knox County, Illinois USA lists a Thomas H. STALKER b. 1821 IOM married to Maria CORLETT. Thomas' parents were listed as Thomas Stalker & Maria L. Unknown. It seems strange that both father & son married a Maria, but possible. I am researching these people, but can't find anything further, except perhaps 3 children of Thomas (182l): Alfred, Mariah & Ruth all born in Il. Thanks for any info.
