Posted on: Whiteside Co. Illinois Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/USA/Il/Whiteside/10841 Surname: Springstead, Pettit ------------------------- Hi. Maybe we could e-mail each other and compare notes. My Springsteads did come from NY, to Illinois, but I'm not 100% certain of the exact location that they came from. I'll be more than happy to share and compare notes.
