Posted on: Edgar Co., IL Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Il/Edgar/487 Surname: Mattingly ------------------------- In the 1879 History of Edgar County, IL on pages 388-389 there is a mention of Baldwinsville in connection to Cambridge City: "Cambridge City is the oldest city or town in the county, the record of the plat bearing date August 2, 1820. Just where it is or was located (for there is not a trace to mark the site) no one can tell, except by consulting the records. From them we learn that it was on the northeast quarter of Section 9, Town(ship) 14 north, Range 11 was which is now embraced in Hunter Township...Baldwinsville, at a later period, we believe, absorbed Cambridge. A post office and store was once kept here, by a man named Baldwin, and went by the name of Baldwinsville Post Office. But it has long passed away, and the site of the place is now a cultivated farm." I am searching for the Mattingly families who came from KY to the Edgar/Vigo counties area.
