I have volunteered to do lookups from the book History of Wayne County and Clay Counties, Illinois, publ 1884. It has never been put on line, but anyone who needs a lookup may contact me direct. I checked for anything concerning the Caudle family and did find a few mentioned, but not what you were looking for. SC

I looked in the marriages of later dates and on November 23, 1902, John G. Greene, age 24 of Wayne Co., married Leela Cudelle, age 18. Leela was the child of William Caudle and Rebecky Worly. Does that help you ? Jerilyn

Avie, You might be out of luck. If i remember right, there was fire at the court house in the mid 1880's that destroyed all the records.

Dear Friends, I would like to ask if anyone knows of the existence of a photo (or of the actual manuscript records) of the Little Flock Primitive Baptist Church (a sketch of its history is on our website), of Wayne Co. Thanks to help from a forum member, the following is a description of the location of the church: Little Flock was located in Section 17 (Hickory Hill township) on county road 1275N about 1 1/2 miles from the Jefferson-Wayne County line. West of the Garrison Temple United Methodist church.The property is currently owned by Mrs. Henry (Matilda) Sanderson and has recently been farmed so there would not be any remains of the Little Flock church building there. If you can help, please let us hear from you. Thank you very much. Sincerely, Elder Robert Webb http://www.carthage.lib.il.us/community/churches/primbap/pbl.html

This website is great! I found several of my Wilson..Crask..Witter ancestors in Wayne Co. Thank You, Mr. Webb. Sue in Mo.

I don't know if any of you have seen this site or not, but I personally have looked at it and found family's related through my Randleman's like the Lemen's and Ogle's to mention a few. I thought this may be of interest to others so asked Mr. Webb if he minded that I pass it on to my other lists. So....... here it is. Hope it is helpful to all.

For the benefit of those who have joined county forums since then, we submit the above links again, which will take you to the present state of our research on Primitive Baptist churches in Illinois, county by county, as well as about thirty other states. We are always happy to receive additional information to improve our site. Best wishes, Elder Robert Webb, director The Primitive Baptist Library Carthage, Illinois

Wayne Co. IL Researchers Sorry to bother you all again. I have gotten about 4 FGS files and each are saved and sent to me as PDF files. Most likely you have FTM 10.0, a new feature they put in there. In order for a person to open this file that person must use adobe. Because I am blind I use a display reader (voice that reads the screen), My reader can not open a PDF file. So if you send me a file (any file) it must be a word, wordpad, or text file for me to open it. Thanks! Dianna

Wayne Co., IL Researchers I am in the process to upload information this week end about the Old New Hope Church. I had several people contact me regarding to the Old New Hope Baptist Church. Anyone (except Diane) that has information or on or a photo of this church please send it to me. I will include it in the upload ... hopefully Sunday or Monday. Also in the upload will be Family Group Sheets (FGS). So if you have a FGS, send it to me to have it included in the upload (Lois this will include yours). Any other information that you want to share with others and have on the Wayne Co., IL site, send it to me. Thanks! Dianna Wayne Co., IL Coordinator

Silas Wilson, my grandfather was borned in 1821 and lived in Barnhill, had 19 children and 69 grandchildren. As strange as it seems, I have been unable to establish contact with other grandchildren or great grandchildren. Anyone out there have historical contact with Silas or any of his three wives?
