I have heard that my line moved from Illinois to Missouri and then to Memphis.My Great Grandfather, Charles Sherman Fancher, Sr. was a mounted police officer in Memphis as was my grandfather Charles, Jr. for a short time.They lived in downtown Memphis with or near other Fancher relatives in the mid 1900's.
I have found other Fanchers listed on this forum in or around Coles County, IL (location of Mattoon, IL) but cannot make a connection.Any help would be appreciated.
