Gail, A note for you, I used to work in Dixon IL, (Lee county). You probably know Dixon is right by Pine Creek. I used to have a lady named Helen Remmers come in the bank all the time. She was a great lady and we built a good friendship. You may want to give her a call. She knows so much about the Remmers and so forth. You may want to give it a try. She may be deceased by now. But hopefully not. She was determined to live a long long life, and at that time she was doing a great job. That was about 7 years ago.

Interesting question!!
