Thank you all for your suggestions. Roger, yes I should join that list as many of the ancestors I search came from that area. Also, thanks for the e-mail address I will give it a try. It seems my best hope. Ann, thanks for the information on libraries with copies. Perhaps I will be able to get someone on staff to make a copy of that page. Ron, yes, some of the Wirtjes clan in my file ended up in Sac City. The name is only mine by marriage. My Wirtjes research is my husbands ancestors. It seems that if you run across a Wirtjes in Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin or Michigan they are all related. William, I did try for an inter library loan. I was told that wasn't possible. I have also been told that the Mormon church genealogy library in Salt Lake has a copy and if I go to the local family history center I can fill out a form and in a few weeks I would receive a copy of that page. I have not ask them about this. The idea of waiting weeks when I have hunted for years for this link is almost more than I can stand. I was just hopeful that since Ogle county, Illinois had such a large percentage of German immigrants that someone would have picked up a copy back when they were new and only $40. Well, thanks again.
