Sharlene: I understand there is a Historical Society across the street from the Court House. That should be a good place to start. There are many cemeteries in Saline County and I imagine they could locate them for you. In the County Clerk's Office, ask for Stephanie as she is really a great help. Good luck. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sharlene Meyer" <sharmeye@usmo.com> To: <ILSALINE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, April 10, 2001 4:52 PM Subject: [ILSALINE-L] COONS, Isaac/RICE, Mary E.
