WAYNE COUNTY ILLINOIS
Hi! My name is Laurie Selpien and I am your host on this Wayne County site.( I am also hosting Edwards and Hamilton Counties). While I do not live in Wayne County my family dates back to the first settlers to this county up to my parents who grew up and went to school in Wayne County. If you have a SMITH, LANE, FORTH, JONES or PERRY, somewhere in your family tree then we probably have the same family line. I am trying to make this web site as user friendly as possible so please let me know what you would like to see on this site. Forth Cemetery Cleaned UP! Amazing what a small group can do see for yourselves! If you have information you would like to add to this website please contact me at lselpien@msn.com I am constantly adding information to this website. If you want to keep up with the latest updates on Wayne County contact me to be added to the update list, lselpien@msn.com

Lewis Adam Harper & Harper Journal Lewis Adam Harper was a Methodist circuit riding preacher for 1858 until 1901. During all these years he kept a daily journal which listed the weddings and Funerals at which he presided. Some of the dates are dates of death but the majority are of the funeral dates. Funerals normally occurred the day after the date of death.
