  • Notes 
    • When Henry Raab died unexpectedly in early 1860, Phillipine was left with an unpaid mortgage. Peter Yordy purchased the property for the price of the mortgage ($620). He then sold the farm to August Knoll for $2,000, and purchased a home on the corner of Sixth and Ann Eliza Streets in Pekin from Knoll for $700. Phillipine and her children moved into this house.
