Charles (1805-1877), Jacob (1792-1865), and George Waggoner (1800-1869) were the first settlers to come over from Coshocton Co, Ohio to NW Lawrence and SW Crawford Counties in Illinois. This area was known as the "Coshocton Settlement", comprised of a large number of familes who migrated from Coshocton Co, OH with the goal of developing the area.
It appears Charles was the first. James David Waggoner (1815-1845) was a son of Jacob. Samuel Waggoner was a son of William Waggoner (who did not migrate to Illinois and was a brother to Charles/Jacob/George). Daniel Waggoner (1821-1859) was a son of David Waggoner (1796-1883). David did not migrate to Illinois.
