The first 2008 issue of the St. Clair County (Illinois) Genealogical Society Quarterly has enough material to make some state publications jealous. Contents include:
the second of two parts of a county marriage index for 1908 (alphabetical by bridal surname, from Lizzie Crowder to Helena Zubrawski).
"E. St. Louis Gazette: Some Vital Stats, 1866, Tidbits 1872."
"Extracts from Death Register Book 1, 8 March 1882-28 April 1883," by Melinda Cahill and Diane Walsh
"Biography of James Bissell 'J.B.' Davis," by Thomas W. Davis, Jr.
"Belleville Public Library Website Adds Features," including a glimpse of a genealogical source I'd never dreamed of: an archival document in German, listing books checked out, the individual patrons' names, and the due dates, 1863-1866. What was your ancestor reading?
Announcement of a new SCCGS project and a first installment of its index: a Funeral Card Collection.
