Transcriber’s Note: I wonder if this Stricker, and the other Strickers
were really Stricklers. I tried to research these Strickers and do not
have them among the Stricklers I have on my family tree. But there
were Strickler families still in Carroll County, Illinois in 1917 who I
think were farmers, and it seems unlikely they wouldn’t appear
in this book. If anyone knows this surname
Stricker is a typo for Strickler, let Chris know.
**Note from Don E. Stricker - July 2008: -
I "Do know" that the next names were Stricker and not Stricklers.
Jasper Stricker was my Grandfather and his son Joe was my father, George,
Leo were Jaspers other sons. John Stricker was Jaspers brother,
his children were Clarence, George, Caroline, Elsie.
Lawrence Stricker was also Jaspers brother, Lawrences children
were , Earl, Mary. John, Jasper, Lawrence were Stricker and not Strickler.
I do know there were Strickler and Stricker in Carroll County. These
Strickers were all kin to Valentine Stricker who would have been my
Great-Grandfather, he came to Carroll County around 1854.( Died 1898).
So Jasper,John, Lawrence, and two other children (Anna Mary and
Andrew were all children of Valentine. Anna Mary and Andrew both
moved to Hood River Or. Thats why their names were missing on this
1917 Directory. I just thought I'd try to straighten this out.
By the way my name is Donald Stricker
I lived in Savanna from around 1943 to December 1965 at that time
I moved to Loves Park,Illinois.
