Thanks to all of you for your interesting responses re Eola, IL. It sounds as though it was a lovely small and rural town just absorbed by "progress". I admit there was a small part of me that was hoping I could see Eola somewhat as my Grandparents did when they managed farms there. Those of you who wrote me helped me add a bit to my family history. Good hunting.
