Re: Ginny's note: ".....using clues developed through first our St. Anne interest eMail group and now though this RootsWeb list." We may be able to trace amost ALL of the early St Anne families. I wonder what the 1860 Census head count was and how many of these families are represented by our group members.? Several of our members had not accumulated enough genealogy data to contribute their family notebooks to the KVGS and Kankakee Library last September. Now that we have the IL Marriage Index, KKK burials, and other great resources on-line more of these families may have come together or even been completed. Our members might like to start assembling notebooks to be donated. It is a great way to preserve your family history and help other researchers. I'm sure one of our members who belongs to the KVGS would accept your notebook by mail and hand deliver it to the library if you live too far away to visit. Audrey
