If you call the Library in Jacksonville, ask for a gentleman named Chris. He is a very nice young gentleman and extremely helpful. He even found a picture of an ancestor of mine in a book on the history of the city (or county, not sure which)! The people at the courthouse are very very nice and also extremely helpful. As quick as they found my Grgrgrandpa's Civil War discharge papers, they can't be disorganized. Do give these people a call, Morgan County has some VERY nice people!

Wow! I didn't know Civil War discharge papers could be found at the county level. Is this true everywhere, or just in Morgan County?
