Each Zone consists of a series of 9 or more bordering county maps making up all 102 Illinois counties. Each Zone Atlas contains high resolution scanned images of vintage 19th century county maps that are presented in Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF). All (11) individual Illinois Zones also available separately. Each atlas includes the following 19th century features: * roads, railroads and canals * cities, towns and villages * post offices and government sites * one-room schoolhouses, churches and cemeteries * rivers, streams and ferries * racetracks, fairgrounds and picnic groves * industrial sites, furnaces and mills * early homesteads and farms - and much more The Historic Atlas of Illinois series may be an invaluable aid to Genealogists, Historians and researchers in search of 19th century Illinois places and place names. Many 19th century sites no longer appear on contemporary maps and or have been obscured with time. The Historic Atlas Series CD's provide researchers with the means to quickly search 19th century maps when searching for extinct Illinois places. The Adobe Acrobat Reader for MS Windows is needed to view, zoom, pan and print from the PDF map images contained in this atlas; and is included free on each CD. No other software is necessary. The map data has been created and configured using Adobe Acrobat Reader (6.0) for MS Windows (98, 98SE, XP, NT and 2000). The maps may be viewed in earlier and the latest versions of the software as well; however, optimum use of the data can be expected using the Adobe Reader 6.0 that is included on this CD. Details on early maps are often difficult to read and these are no exception; however, by virtue of the Adobe PDF formatting, these documents may be inspected at high levels of magnification without additional digital distortion; something that simply cannot be accomplished with paper reproductions and photocopies. Follow the links below for other Atlas CD's available for the states of IA, IN, KY, MI,MN, OH, PA and WI.

The Adjutant General of Illinois has info on veterans from the state. If they have a file on William Mack, it might show where he was buried. Addresses of the various state AG's are at http://www.ngaus.org/resources/tags.asp . If not found buried around Anna, he may have been re-interred later in Mounds National Cemetery as one of my gg uncles from Union County was, who died at Fort Donelson in 1862.

"Milk sickness" was the cause of death of a couple of women I've researched. Abraham Lincoln's mother is supposed to have died from it. http://www.nps.gov/abli/plantj.htm One definition: "An acute, often fatal disease caused by the ingestion of milk, milk products or the flesh of cattle or sheep which have a disease known as trembles. It is marked by weakness, anorexia, vomiting, constipation, and sometimes muscular tremors. It is caused by poisoning by white snakeroot and the rayless goldenrod." Legend says the knowledge that white snakeroot was a cause came from a Shawnee woman of southern Illinois. http://history.alliancelibrarysystem.com/IllinoisWomen/files/lg/htm1/lg000003.cfm ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, July 06, 2005 1:10 AM Subject: [ILUNION] RE: Hospital for the Insane > Hi Jenny :) > The hospital this refers to must be the Anna State Hospital,,,now called > Choate Mental Health.
