Hi Tammy, One of the compilers of the book you mentioned is Jane Shelly. Her home address is 420 Sunset Dr., Edwardsville, IL 62025. In the past I have hired her to do some research work for me in Edwardsville. I am sure that she can help you. You might also write to the Madison Co. Gen. Soc., P.O. Box 631, Edwardsville, IL 62025, possibly they can help you. Good luck in your search. Sue in NY

Hello- Just joined the mailing list, I thought I had before, but apparently not. I'm looking for the "Naturalizations & Intentions of Madison County, IL: An Index 1816-1900. Edwardsville, IL: the compilers, 1983. 163p" Compilers were Shelley, Jane, & Elsie M. Wasser. There are two entries for Jacob ANDRES, both 'places' state IL, one for the year 1860 & one for yr. 1892. Source code is 8368, source page #3. I have a Jacob ANDRES in my lineage, and he was born abt 1839 in Switzerland. I don't know when he came to US, but he married Eliza from IL, and their first child, Perry Washington ANDRES, was born Dec 1864 in IL. Some old family records say he was born in Madison County, but I haven't found proof. Could someone please help me with finding the above book and Jacob ANDRES, and also birth record of Perry ANDRES, may have been written down as ANDREWS, please? Thank you, Tammy Lawless tlawless@oio.net

Hello Tammy - I can't help you on your search for your naturalizations book, but I would like to contact who ever gets back to you so that I may get some information for myself from that same book. - J.

Here is a poem that you may enjoy. It was sent to me by a cousin who also works on genealogy. Dear Ancestor Your tombstone stands among the rest; Neglected and alone. The name and date are chiseled out On polished, marbled stone. It reaches out to all who care It is too late to mourn. You did not know that I exist You died and I was born. Yet each of us are cells of you In flesh, in blood, in bone. Our blood contracts and beats a pulse Entirely not our own. Dear Ancestor, the place you filled One hundred years ago Spreads out among the ones you left Who would have loved you so. I wonder if you lived and loved, I wonder if you knew That someday I would find this spot, And come to visit you. Author Unknown

I just added a few more links to my city directories pages. Please note I am only extracting families that I think could be linked to mine. Emma Kassell Campbell was my g g gma born either June 1, 1859, 60 or .. well seems every record is a little differnt. Her marriage license in St. Louis to George Scott Campbell 26 March 1883 spelled her name as Cassell. I am searching any and all city directories and such ... does anyone have the 1860 or 70 St. Louis census records in book form? Trying to find the possible parents for Emma and her brother Frederick Kassell is hard even using an index for the St. Louis Census. Fred's death cert sayes his father was John M. Kassell but Emma's lists a Frederick and family legend was a Jacob. (We have about ruled out Jacob) but another family member remembers a family ancestor's name as Valentine. Now to confuse things - we have found a Valentine KISSELL .. Emma and Fred were born in St. Louis - Emma and her husband lived in E. St. Louis until his death in 1912 and moved back to St. Louis ca 1914. At some point moved to Granite City .. All help appreciated. The city directory page is http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Estates/4375/citydirc.html thanks, Pat

I think her charges were 20.00 an hour with two hour min. That is standard for most of the researchers.
