Posted on: Edgar Co., IL Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Il/Edgar/10559 Surname: Mattingly, Roberts ------------------------- Amy, I was just browsing through here for fun, and saw several names that ring a bell. My husband grew up in Paris, IL. the county seat of Edgar Co. Amazingly enough, I have been in the old North Arm Catholic Church, just a few years back. It is surrounded by farmland, and is touted by the locals as being the oldest Catholic Church in the county, which is why my husband's cousin chose to get married there. The present parish priest for the area is Father Overmann, and he is stationed at St. Mary's Catholic Church in Paris, IL. If you'd like to pursue getting a copy of the marriage record, St. Mary's MIGHT have some from that church. Let me know via e-mail and I'll give you the St. Mary's address in Paris. The other surnames you are researching all sound very familiar to my husband Mark. His mother, Dolores Mattingly Waller does not have any genealogy info, but I can tell you that her parents were Francis Jeremiah Mattingly and Belva Roberts- married in Paris, IL. MArk, my husband, said that he had always heard that "Grandpa Jeremiah's" family was from Kentudky, but he did not know how far back it was. Good Luck, and let me know if you'd like me to walk through the cemetary behind the North Arm church when we're up there next. Probably in June or July this Summer. Kathy Waller, Bryan, Texas
