Dear Brenda, Gwen, Harold and other Listers! Thank you very much for your latest comments on this topic, and in particular was I happy to receive Chris Hill's obituary! Unfortunately, Chris' obituary has no mention of brothers or sisters, so he was probably the last sibling to die...! As far as the fire in Cook Co.., IL is concerned, I believe that was in 1871, when a number of vital records shall have been destroyed. After that time I believe that most everything has been kept, although many of the records we look for just cannot be found! Thanks again for your great assistance in this matter! Very sincerely yours, Lars E.
