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.
