Trying to get caught up and know there are many things I have forgotten since starting the census. Sorry. ---- Renovations of Staunton Public Library. If you plan to visit the Macoupin County Genealogical Library Room at the Staunton Public Library after June 1, please call first, 618-635-3852. Do not make a long trip and find the genealogy collection unavailable because of renovation. It is not known when the renovations will be complete. ------------------- There are some new books in the past couple months or so and some discontinued books published by the Macoupin County Genealogical Society.
