Thanks for responding, Louise. No, I don't have the cemetery book. Will you be able to scan it and send it via email? I certainly appreciate your time and trouble.

Bob was worried you wouldn't get all three of the info he sent... thanks for answering! I got out a magnifying glass and with it, I was able to read most of the names on the map... you might try that!!! Also, you mention about the depot.... In 2000 the Johnson County Genealogical and Historical Society published a calendar for 2000 of railroad depots in Johnson Co.... if you don't have that address, write me again and I'll send it to you... I've belonged to that society for several years. You might like to know there is a Reevesville, IL railroad depot in it also... so if you don't get the calendar.. let me know and Bob will send you a picture from our calendar. All my ancestors, maternal and paternal were in Johnson Co. or Union Co, IL by 1860... many were there before the state was formed.... so I am a 'southern IL' person..... some of the names I am related to; Greer, Lowery, Bear, Colboth, Choate, McIntosh etc..... my parents left Cypress, IL in early 1929... we moved to Aurora, IL and I lived there till my husband and I moved to Billings, MT in 1968..... [maybe you've figured out, I'm 81] Good luck with your research... Louise
