This is very helpul! Do you know (or does anyone on the list know) what the author, publication, and date info is for the two BIG "History of Perry County" books? Or are they compilations from other books? History of Perry County IL. Vol 1 - Copyright 1988 by Perry county Historical society. Turner Publishing co., Paducah, KY. There is a lot of history of Perry Co. in the books, and they are full in family history turned in by families. Perry County Illinois Volume II, 1998. Same publishers etc. I haven't found them listed at ANY libraries in the US.......? I don't know where they all are but I know there are some in several southern Il. libraries. Anita
