Dear Barb I have many family members who settled in the area of Northville Township/Somonauk Village. If Adolf and his wife Adeline were Catholic, they most likely would have belonged to the St. John the Baptist Catholic Church located in Somonauk. If Adeline died in the area, she may have been buried in the Catholic cemetery located in Section 6 of Northville Township. When I had the rare opportunity to visit the cemetery last month I did notice quite a few headstones that said the family came from Alsace. This cemetery and associated church records (birth/marriages) are available on microfilm with the LDS Family History Centers. Also, the LaSalle County Genealogy Guild will have the cemetery information.
