Hi I am also doing research in this area.Trying to find connection in Scotland.My husbands grandmother is a McKune and a direct decendent of John McKune and Mary Lawless.John McKune was born in Scotland May 10, 1811.He died May3, 1879 in Peoria Co., Il and is burried at Campbell Cemetery in Peoria Co., IL.There is a copy of the marriage certificat of John and Mary in the Illinois Marriage archives http://www.sos.state.il.us/depts/archives/marrcopy.htmlhttp://www.sos.state.il.us/depts/archives/marrcopy.html
I don't have much information on Mary Lawless--She was born aroune 1816 in Scotland.
They had 9 children:I think all of them were born in IL
James McKune b 1841
John McKune b 1848
Margaret McKune b 1842 d 1889m Joseph Gelling Oct 20, 1860
Elizabeth McKune b 1844
Mary McKune b 1846
Oliver McKune b1850
Ellen McKune b 1853 d 1920 m William Belford June 23, 1891
William McKune v1858 d after 1929
Our ancestry comes through James McKune.I have very little information on him--If anyone can provide more I would be grateful.His son Thomas McKune b June 22, 1866d 1930 Amboy Lee Col, Il
married Mary Duffy(b September 15, 1867 d June 2, 1928 Amboy.
