There is a new book available for Pike Co IL researchers. Melvin McAllister has published the diary of John Cane McKinney and the index is available online at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ilpike/McKinneyIndex.html Be sure to stop by and see if your surnames are listed. Information on purchasing the book is at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ilpike/books.html I have also added a link to Rootsweb's board for buying and selling Pike Co related books. This link can be found on the homepage at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ilpike The purpose of this board is for individuals who have copies of Pike Co resources they no longer have a need for to list for sale and for those wanting to purchase a particular book to make it known to others. Good luck in your search, Barbara Freeman Pike Co ILGenWeb CC
