Hi Everybody: New to this list. When were records started in Peoria?? Is there any info. for the area in the historical society?? My Ben/Benjamin Holcomb had a daughter, Sophia in 1827 in Peoria Co.. Benjamin's son Henry W. was born in 1830, maybe in Peoria Co., Henry settled Boone county, Iowa some years later. Thanks for your time Rodd in Minnesota
