I would also suggest that anyone in the area visit this Society as they
began very early and have information on the surrounding counties. I have a
link to them on the De Witt County page under "other resources"
For those of you that have been waiting so patiently for me to get back at
my jobs, I am easing in there. My health is improving and I can manage more
computer time. I have folders with all the questions etc. and will start
from now and work backwards. For the Macon County list, I love volunteers
and will need some to help with transcriptions, such as Census readings. I
can sent the information in CD form so that there is no cost involved except
the mailing fees and I can do that. Please remember that Obituary's can
only be re-drafted if they are after 1930. We need to stay within the
Copyright laws. I will add Macon counties own copyrights as we get the
information on-line so that we are at least protected against those who
would profit from our work. I will let you know what resources I do have
for Macon County, while I wait for volunteers.

You definitely want to check their web site and get their hours so you can
plan to get there while they are open. Their hours are limited.

The first place you may want to try is the Decatur Genealogical Society -
http://www.rootsweb.com/~ildecgs/ I was in Decatur last year and the people
there were very knowledgeable and friendly and they have a large collection
of information.
