Hello and Good Evening Listers, I have been trying to trace my ancestors stay in Massac county. After getting the information from my cousin, I found Frederick CRENSHAW on the IL Land site; he bought 40 acres in Sec 4 of Jackson Township. As far as I can figure after consulting several maps is that he might have bought property at the head or source of Crenshaw Creek. Mapquest: search for Unionville, IL and then enlarge that map and the creek is listed. Speaking of maps, there was a dandy map [1895 or so] of Massac county on the former site. I have uploaded and link it. Take a look. I like it!! Thank you, Bill Oliver List Manager -=-

I would like to see the map referenced, but I don't see the link you mentioned. Thanks. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bill Oliver" <wnoliver@worldnet.att.net> To: <ILMASSAC-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, November 03, 2002 6:14 PM Subject: [ILMASSAC] Massac County Map > Hello and Good Evening Listers, > > I have been trying to trace my ancestors stay in Massac > county.

Good Morning Brad, From the main Massac County ILGenWeb Project page <http://www.rootsweb.com/~ilmassac/> scroll down to the second statue and opposite the base are links to other sites. The bottom one [Massac County Map], click there and go to the map. Otherwise go to: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ilmassac/mcimap0001.html Sincerely, Bill Oliver Site Manager -=- Brad Faughn wrote: > I would like to see the map referenced, but I don't see the link you > mentioned.
