Alice- It was my pleasure in sending the information....I do not live in Mt Morris and cannot help you in that matter. If there is anyone who would like a lookup I would be more than happy to do so. I only have a section of the book.....(the section that has biographies) The History of Ogle County Illinois...Portraits of early settlers and prominent men..1878... if you know the township please let me know that as there is no index to the book and I have to go thru each township individually. -Kim (Timmons) Taft BLAKESLEE COY FEARY HARDESTY KELLER MACKENIZE TAFT WAHL WIENAND In a message dated 98-10-12 11:16:04 EDT, you write: << Special thanks to Kim Taft for the information from History of Ogle County. I wonder if Kim or anyone else on the list lives in Mt. Morris? I would greatly appreciate a copy of the obituary for SOLOMON DAVIS which appeared in the October 3, 1897 issue of the Mt. Morris Index. Also a copy of the death notice for MARY DAVIS who died April 3, 1891. I have written to the Mt. Morris Library but had no response. I understand the volumes are stored in the basement and are heavy. Any volunteers? >>
