I offered a couple of years ago to go there and scan the entire group of photo's from the large framed photo that hangs there on the wall. This too was never answered by any of the Board Members.

I think I saw it at JCHS a number of years ago. This illustration, titled "Pioneers Who Settled in Jersey County Prior to 1840," was published in the "Standard Atlas of Jersey County, Illinois Including a Plat Book of the Villages, Cities and Townships of the County," Chicago: Geo. A. Ogle & Co, 1916, p. 69. I have an enlarged photocopy of this page from the 1916 Atlas. I believe this Atlas is available at the Jerseyville Public Library. Perhaps they would make a photocopy for you if no one has offered to take a digital photo? Jonas Bradshaw is No. 105. There are 152 photos.

It was something like a high school class composite which most high schools hang on the walls of the past graduating classes - individual photos with name below photo. In this particular case I don't remember if each photo was numbered with a special box with the identification by numbers or each photo identified under the photo. One of the photos was that of Jonas Bradshaw, my 3rd gr-grandfather. If I recall correctly he was in the bottom row about 2 or 3 from the lower right corner. I've been told that this photo group was taken to the historical society. If anyone has a digital camera I was hoping that perhaps they could take a photo of Jonas Bradshaw and send it to me email. I will gladly reimburse for any expenses. Thank you in advance. Debbi Geer __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Read only the mail you want - Yahoo!

Marty, I did not respond (although I was curious) because I was not sure of the names of these people in the photo. Is there any way of knowing?
