I would like to introduce Sharon Hackworth as the new County Coordinator for Monroe Co IL ILGenWeb site. I know she will do a great job so please welcome her to ILGenWeb. She told me she will be updating the site daily. Good for those researching Monroe Co IL. !!!! http://www.rootsweb.com/~ilmonroe/ I asked her to tell a little about herself. I live in Southeast MO. I currently am coordinator of the Madison County, MO GenWeb site and the Iron County, MO Genealogy Society webpage. My maternal ancestors were all from Monroe County and I have researched in that area for several years. I am a member to several Genealogy Societies, director of publications of the Iron Co, MO Society and participate in volunteer transcription projects with the Missouri State Archives. I look forward to working on the Monroe Co site and getting to know those who visit the site. Tim Casey ILGenWeb Southern Region Coordinator
