These records were from census,
land records, bios, tax, cemetery, etc. and
each folder has one surname
with solid research info in it. Some files are
20-30 pages of compiled info
for each surname in the county. Check with the
Carlinville Public Library
to see if they will make copies of the surname
you need.
