I am looking for information on family of my g-g-g-grandfather William G. Piper. He was a Methodist circuit minister in IL & KS from 1841 to 1859. He was assigned the Big Spring, Topeka, Auburn & Tecumseh circuits. He died in 1869 & had lived from 1859 to death in Baldwin City, KS.

Any information on Rev. Piper &/or his family would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
LYNN
