You have William NASH as dying in Hale Township. Actually, he died in
Monmouth, Warren County, Illinois having been a resident there for a
short time. He was still farming in Hale Township as of the 1865
Illinois State Census. The local newspaper noted that he was in failing
health, and a week later announced that he had died in Monmouth, with his
burial taking place at the Sugar Tree Grove cemetery in Hale Township
where he formerly lived. I recently copied these newspapers and typed up
transcripts.
Wives of William NASH - In all, he was married three times. His first
wife is as you have listed, Nancy Galbreath.
His second wife was Mrs. Agness "Nancy" MUNCY, married on 24 November
1837 in Warren County. Some sources list William as married to both a
Nancy Muncy and an Agness Muncy - another popular error. Church records
and census records give the name Nancy for William's second wife, while
her headstone at Sugar Tree Grove cemetery reads "Agness" (with two "s's"
at the end). Her maiden name was McKINNEY, a sister of Abraham McKinney,
and their maiden sister Jane (as shown in the 1850 census of William
Nash's household). Thus, Agness "Nancy" was an aunt to the two McKINNEY
sisters who married her NASH stepsons. Agness "Nancy" NASH died 28
January 1855 in Hale Township of Warren County. She had no children with
William Nash, but did have a son named William MUNCY (1817 - 1873).
There is no mention of her MUNCY husband in the Warren County records
(including church records), so he probably died in Pennsylvania prior to
the McKINNEY group migration to Warren County in 1837.
William's third wife was Elizabeth MORROW, the widow of the famous Rev.
John WALKER (popular abolitionist, founder of New Athens, OH, as well as
Alma/Franklin College). They were definitely married sometime during
1855, probably in New Athens, Harrison County, Ohio, but I have found no
ready source of documentation. As already mentioned, William's 2nd wife
died in January 1855. Church records show that his third wife (so
listed) joined by letter of transfer in October 1855. Elizabeth was born
14 April 1809 in Pennsylvania, and died in Monmouth on 25 August 1870.
She was buried near her daughters and Walker step-daughter in Monmouth
cemetery. At this point, it would appear William had been appointed to
attend church business in Ohio by the local congregation, where he met
and married Elizabeth. I found several mentions in church records of
letters from Rev. John Walker to the Warren County congregation, so he
was no doubt a familiar figure to the congregation.
The Monmouth Atlas weekly newspaper of 27 September 1867 (page 3) noted
that William Nash, a resident of Monmouth, was in failing health and not
expected to recover. The Monmouth Atlas of 4 October 1867 (page 2) noted
that William Nash, a recent resident of Monmouth had died, and his body
was buried at Sugar Tree Grove, near where he had resided for so many
years. Perhaps the Monmouth Review also carried an article about William,
but there is a gap of several months in the available papers on microfilm.

From a E-mail 28 April 2006
Ann E. FORT was not a NASH! Ann was shown in William's household during
the 1850 census, and many people have assumed it was a widowed daughter.
I found plenty of records to the contrary. Ann's father died shortly
after the family's settlement in Warren county, and her mother died a few
years later. William raised Ann, as he did a lot of other children not
his own. Again, I researched Ann quite a bit, but have lost track of the
notes once I removed her from my family files. If you want more proof, I
will look it up for you and pass it on. I have found no substance to the
rumor that William Nash ever had a daughter.
The Daily Review Atlas, Monmouth, IL - 20 November 1917
Ann E. Fort was born in New Jersey, on Nov. 21, 1830. When she was yet
a small child, her mother died in Philadelphia, and she, with her father,
and her small brothers and sisters, came, by way of the Ohio river, and
by canal, to Warren county, Ill. They settled in 1837 northwest of
Monmouth in the vicinity of Sugar Tree Grove, being among Warren county's
earliest settlers. Little Ann was taken into the family of William Nash
and lived with them until she attained the age of young womanhood. She
early expressed her faith in God and joined first with the South
Henderson Seceder church, and then with the First United Presbyterian
church of this city. She was one of those hardy pioneers who made the
early history of Warren county, and she knew well the hardships of the
early days, and those during the Civil War.
In 1857 she married Thomas M. Nelson, and with him founded a little home
on Cedar Creek, three miles north of Monmouth. To this union were born
two sons, Harold F. and Elmer M. Nelson. The former died at the old home
in 1878, the latter now resides near Los Angeles, Calif. Mr. Nelson fell
in the engagement at Vicksburg.
In 1871 Mrs. Nelson again married, this time to Elias Quinn. One child,
Clarence E. came of this union. The family continued to live in the old
home north of Monmouth until 1878, when they traveled overland to
Nebraska and helped to settle and develop another new state. They
continued to reside in southeast Nebraska until 1906, when they moved to
Virginia, to be near their son, Clarence, then in the employ of the
government at Washington. Here Mr. Quinn passed away, Nov. 22, 1908.
Mrs. Quinn then made her home with the family of her son, Clarence, and
moved with them, first to Oregon, then to Kansas, and a year ago returned
to Illinois. This fall she came to Monmouth, her old home, and it was
here that she passed away, Nov. 17, outliving all her own family.
The funeral was held yesterday afternoon at the late home, 517 East F
street, the Rev. S. G. Huey, pastor of the West Side United Presbyterian
church, officiating.
