Dear Patrick, This is just a shot in the dark...but you said you were seriously 'stuck'. I have never heard the name McNeff before...but I do know of some Neff families (Kendall Co IL). Would watching for Neff prove useful? Couldn't hurt...what else do you have to look for? 8-) Good luck...Kristy ---------- >From: Pjoconnor@aol.com >To: ILWOODFO-L@rootsweb.com >Subject: McNeff >Date: Tue, Apr 24, 2001, 8:06 AM > > I've hit the "brickwall" as far as trying to locate my > Great Grandmother's family in Woodford County from back in > the early 1880's.
