This may not be an entirely new thing but I saw today on Ancestry that the Illinois archives has added some records from IRAD to their website. I went to check it out and found they have a global search engine which allows for searching all their online records at one time. I had not seen this before and wanted you all to know abt it. No IRAD stuff from Jo Daviess yet alas. Here is the url: http://www.sos.state.il.us/depts/archives/database.html Regards, Christina
