Name: Ally McAtee
Daniel and Elizabeth (SHIRLEY) McATEE were married in 1834 in Indiana. Daniel came westward to Grundy Co in 1839. He is listed in the Brimson History Book as being on a wagon train with the early settlers in the area. He and Elizabeth raised a large family there and are buried in Coon Creek Cemetery. Grundy Co does not have his 1883 Death Record. I am still looking for his birth place and ancestors. McAtee was more of a common name in the area. Anyone with interesting tales to tell we would love to hear from.
