  • Notes 
    • Frank Fackler, (he did not use John) learned the blacksmith trade after his father left the family. The following is from The History of Fulton County, IL 1879:

      Franklin Fackler, retired blacksmith and pioneer of Fulton Co. Among those battling for an existence in an early day none, perhaps, displayed more energy and pluck than Mr. Fackler. He was born in the Old Dominion, Dec. 3, 1807. His father, Samuel Fackler, was a native of Va. and a tanner by occupation; he married Miss Elizabeth Fenton, who bore him two children.

      Franklin, the younger, passed his youth in Virginia., where he learned the trade of blacksmith. In 1828 he was married to Caroline Deary. She was born in Virginia. During the autumn of 1835, Mr. Fackler, his wife Caroline Deray, and their infant son James Ross crossed the prairies of Illinois, and arrived in Astoria Twp., where shortly afterwards he opened a blacksmith shop in the old town of Washington. He was soon found to be a good smith and pioneers came from far and near to his sh op. In 1837 he located at Astoria and opened the first shop in the place, and for 44 years was well known as a good workman. His marriage was blessed with 8 children, - 6 of whom are living.
