Hettie, Here is a source that will tell you the tribes in Il. http://www.accessgenealogy.com/native/illinois/index.htm There are also Cherokee rolls and the Miller Rolls for finding your Indian numbers. I have lost the link for them put still trying to look for them for you. You might go back on the above link and find it there. I didn't look through all of it. I am so glad that you found your Native American Link. I am still trying to find mine.
