Actually, I didn't try to view the Perry map -- I was just trying to get the data out on the Perry County Patrons. I just checked a few pages, though. For some reason, Du Quoin is on the Monroe page --- page 140 -- and Pickneyville is on page 148 These maps aren't at a good resolution, though. Is it just my computer ?! I can barely read these!

Joanna, One thing you might consider -- perhaps Randolph county papers would have the obit you wanted....? The Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library has 1861 issues for the Randolph County Democrat and the Randolph County Republican. Anita

Jonna, According to the Illinois Newspaper Project, two Perry County papers existed around then: Egyptian Spy (in Tamaroa) and the Perry County Times (both available at Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library) Unfortunately, even though they existed at that time, I don't think that 1861 is available. However, I would email the library to double-check what years they have. Anita Jonna <jonnawanna@yahoo.com> wrote: Anita- Do you know where someone could access early Perry County newspapers? I'd like to see if I can find an obit from approx. June/July of 1861 but don't know much about what newspapers would have been available. Thanks!
