I have found quite a few Henry County marriages in the Ancestry.Com listing that are not currently included in the Illinois Marriage Register. It is worth looking in both places. The Illinois Register for Henry County does not go beyond 1878 and I found some in Ancestry as late as 1900. The Ancestry site does not currently list Mercer County in its listings. I am eagerly awaiting their posting of Bureau County, as I have found several Bureau County families in the Henry County site.

To: Charles McKelvey I am a Rootsweb volunteer for obit look-ups in Bureau and LaSalle counties. I live in Bureau County - can I be of help to you? E-mail me off the list. I'm looking for a volunteer for a census look-up for Geneseo - anyone game?
