The table contains a note on the underside of the top drawer, "This table has mahogany veneer -- drop leaf stand with two drawers -- bought in the late 1850's by Great Grandmother Cross".
I think the table was taken to Chicago by her daughter Margaret L Cross McAffee when she moved there to live with daughters following the death of her husband James.

This is what I found in City Directories and Census data-

In 1880 Roscoe Census, Hannah Benedict Cross, mother, living with James McAffee Family.
