Several months ago, I asked a couple of people to look up some specific names. Now I have found some other names. If someone with the Shelby County Birth Record books would look these up, I would surely appreciate it. All have last name of RICH: May 8, 1872 - Looking for anything around this date (maybe a year sooner or later) with last name RICH. First name should be James or Bud but I am interested in ANY name with last name RICH. Sept. 3, 1876 - something like Alventa (Alberta?) or Eliz A.? Any RICH around this date I am interested in. Sept. 13, 1877 - Samuel Feb. 7, 1880 - Emma (May be a different first name - this was the name they called her). Again, anything about this time with last name RICH. Oct. 29, 1881 - Walter Sep. 1, 1883 - Harley Delphos Nov. 3, 1886 (have also seen 1883 and 1887) - Clarence All of these are supposed to be children of James and Justina (Blue) Rich. If someone happens to run across RICH children with different parents listed, I would be interested in those also. Until recently I didn't think all the RICH's in Shelby County were related to my family (what are the odds, right?) but I have found that at least 3 brothers and one sister came to Shelby County about the same time from Champaign County. So far every RICH I've found in Champaign County is related to my RICH's and it looks the same for Shelby County. Not asking for anyone to search each and every year, but if any kind person is looking for the folks listed above and find another RICH, I would appreciate that info also. Sorry for the big request but I haven't got the funds together yet to order all the different books I need. And everytime I think I have all I need from a particular book, new information comes up. If no one has time for this, I certainly understand! thanks! Karen
