An interesting Friends and Family Story!
---from Illinois, to Iowa, to Montana....

This is about:

2 Schwyhart sisters
2 Simmons sisters
2 Van Aken brothers
2 Kinnicks (uncle and niece)
2 Edicks (father and son)

Rachel (above) married Alonzo Edick, had son Bill Edick
Susan (above) married Hiriam Van Aken
Rachel Simmons married Alfred O. Van Aken, brother of Hiriam
Mary Estelle Simmons, sister of Rachel, married Walter Watson Kinnick
Maggie Kinnick, a niece of Walter, married Bill Edick,
her second cousin.
They were all in Illinois in the 1860s, lived in Adair Co, Iowa, in the 1870s, and, the Edicks moved to Montana in the 1880s near the Joseph Kinnick family (Maggie's family).

In the 1870 census of Harrison Twp, Adair Co, IA, the Alonzo Edick, Hiriam Van Aken, and Walter Watson Kinnick families lived in adjacent farm houses!

But, only Bill Edick and Maggie Kinnick were married in Iowa!
