The list of the counties included on the ISGS marriage CD are on the web site. Please note that all the counties are listed and the list is coded as to what is on the CD. And what has been keyed at the time the list was up-dated. See http://www.tbox.com/isgs/projects/marriage-report.html The list that is there indicates what is on the CD but note that I haven't up-dated it since last summer's board meeting to include the latest counties that have been started/finished etc. I have the listing just haven't gotten to it. This CD is also done in Acrobat and is a huge file to handle to do a search on it. I wrote the review for ISGS and told people how to use it as you would open a book and scan the pages. If you are in Illinois, the microfiche is available at the local libraries.
