    3. Carolyn, You mentioned that you may be taking a trip to Union. If your travels take you close to Mt. Vernon stop at their library. Mt. Vernon is at the junction of I-64 and I-57. Can't remember the name of the library but I'm sure others on this site can give you more information. I was absolutely amazed at the amount of information they had. And I have been through the libraries in Anna/Jonesboro but was still very impressed with what I saw there. The really great thing was they have a large collection from a lot of counties. So if your looking for someone that lived close to a county line it was easy to research the other counties, which I did not find at the other libraries. I traveled over 5,300 miles on that trip in 2 1/2 weeks so it was somewhat of a blur. Would someone please confirm that the library was indeed at Mt. Vernon. Talk at me later, Bob C. Tucson, AZ.

    3. Yes, it's called Brehm Library and is wonderful. There's also a genealogy library for our area at John A. Logan College at Carterville.
