Why not list the names in the photo and let those who identify with any of those names request a copy and paste image. Glenn G. Reynolds

Hi Sue, I have no problem putting it up on the county site, but yes, we'd need to get permission from the Rockford paper since it isn't 75 yrs old or older. Hopefully, if we credit them with the intial works, they won't object.

While going through the books of obits etc. that my grandmother kept, I also came across a wonderful news article., It was on the front page of the Rockford Morning Star and dated Wednesday 30 April 1941. The title is 44 Freeport men leave for Induction Center. The photo is wonderful! AND everyone in the photo is identified. While I would love to share this with everyone and esp. anyone who might have a family member in it I am sure that scanning and sending it email to each person who would like a copy would not be the most efficient way to do this. Any ideas? Anywhere that I can post it on the county site? Do I need permission to post it online? Thanks for any suggestions.

I want to apologize for mistakenly sending a request for obituaries to this address. Please disregard my e-mail. Thank you very much. Marcia Sherman

Dear Sue, I would love to have the obituaries of Frank BEEBE, died 1902 and Mrs. Clarence LONG. Thank you very much. Marcia Sherman MSher1234@aol.com

I have recently received from my mother a notebook from my grandmother with family obits but also contain obits of unrelated people from Freeport. They must have been friends of my grandparents. If anyone would like a copy of the obits for any of the following, please email me privately and I will gladly scan and send a copy. I will have this book for a couple of weeks....Sue csds@lsol.net Samuel Schroeder died in 1934 Henry Nieman died in 1901 Frank Beebe died in 1902 Fred Steinke Mrs. George Anderson Anthony Enzler died 1944 William Leiser died in 1948 Mrs. Clarence Long Mrs. C Newton McIlnay Mrs. Wm. Leiser C. Anton Balles Peter Metoff

The site won't let me in. Says it doesn't exist. Priscilla

The message about a cemetery disk was sent to Stephenson County in error. This was a disk about cemeteries in Fulton Co, Pennsylvania.

Hi - The library was closed Tues and Wed of this week, They will be open the 19th and 20th. The history room is not usually open on Sat and the library isn't open on Sunday's during the summer. Starting the first of Sept they will be open on Sun. If you go to the library on the 19th, they will try and call a volunteer in to open the room for out of town visitors.

To all who wrote regarding the cemetery disk: I belong to the Stephenson County Genealogical Society and we do not have a disk for cemetery's. Rosalie, who did you send your money to? I have just come from the library and checked with the other women who are also members, and they do not know of any disk, either. Let me know who you sent the money to and I will see if I can follow it thru. What we do have in the history room, are books listing all the cemetery's in Stephenson County.
