This Site is Available for Adoption!
If you are interested in joining our group as a webmaster for this site, visit our Volunteer Information page to find out more about
us.
We will try to post data online as we come across it, but without a dedicated host, there is no one available to
add data on a regular basis or to answer your questions.
We gratefully accept contributions of raw data such as census
information, marriage/birth/death records, obituaries, county histories, biographies, old newspaper items - anything
that would help someone build their family tree!!
Feel free to email us with your data contributions - every little
bit helps.
We regret that we are unable to do personal research
If you have research questions, please refer to the Illinois Genealogy Trails Research Help page. Here
we have FAQ's, Resource links and step by step suggestions/instructions to help you along with researching your
ancestry in the state of Illinois.
