I
didn't like or appreciate history until I went on
a trip to New Orleans with my sister ;)
What a beautiful
place...so rich in culture and history! I
fell in love.
I started
gathering information from family members and
joined a search engine and realized that
a year
membership, just wasn't enough. I certainly
wasn't going to pay again.
I ran into
Illinois Trails and here I am.
Through my search
for my family history, I found a personal
connection with Marion County as well as Gallatin
County.
Hardin County I
discovered last year when I took the kids to the
Shawnee Forest. It's truly a beautiful
place. I fell in love with Elizabethtown.
It's truly a wonder of nature... a must see...
My Grandmother, Frieda Pauline Potter, was
born in Marion County and I'm told my Grandfather,
Seymour Larkin Nation
is from
Shawneetown, Gallatin County.
