    3. Hi Everyone, Thank you so much for all your contributions and suggestions! You all are the best! Here are the updates so far this month: * Danni Hopkins transcribed 10 biographies from the 1890 Portrait & Biographical Album. Danni also submitted a beautiful photo of the Williams/Ruey/Monn/Williamson family....more to come... * Donald Parkinson sent in a wonderful picture of the 1919 Lewistown band. * Rich Bolender submitted a death certificate for Daniel Bolender. * Judy Churchill contributed lovely photos concerning the Churchill family (biography section) and data about the Randolph family (Family History section). * Karen Morlan submitted a descendant list for Thomas Bybee. * Roy Wages sent in an 1895 layout of the town...Monterey. * Donna Walker Wefenstette sent in a link to her family website. * Judith McGregor also sent in a link to her family website. * Patsy Gore contributed a biography of Robert Mitchell. * Cris Nagla submitted articles about the Totten cemetery and an interesting interview with John Totten. * A 1940 Harmison reunion picture along with an obituary of Mrs. May Brown was sent in by Charlie McDaniel. He also sent in a couple of Harmison tombstone pictures for the Cuba cemetery. * I added 62 tomstone pictures for Cuba cemetery. * Lewis Wetzel contributed 53 tombstone pictures for Harris cemetery and several pictures for Salem cemetery. There is now a new section on the website called "Vets' Honor Roll"...as a Memorial Day tribute to all the veterans who have served our country! This database was compiled by the Illinois Veterans' Commission and was published in 1956. This project is a work-in-progress and is two-thirds completed. Gaile Thomas and I should have it finished in the next couple of weeks. Thank you for your patience! :-) Stay tuned...much more to come... heartfelt thanks, Janine
