Bio and Links
Bio Photo Lifelong resident of northeastern Illinois, I enjoy visiting the cemeteries and searching out headstones, photographing and posting them and trying to weave the links together of other family members in that cemetery or other ones nearby, so that other researchers can utilize my findings. My areas of particular interest are Lake County (where my family started off in this country), DuPage, Kane, DeKalb and Kendall counties, and also Morgan and Scott counties in southern Illinois. I'll also sometimes go out of my "comfort zone" if it's something that looks intriguing.
I try to arrange my photo expeditions according to my schedule and by areas, and of course by weather conditions. I only claim photo requests that I can absolutely fulfill, and try to fulfill them as promptly as possible.
As always, if you'd like to copy a photo, ask permission first in order to let me know how and where it's going to be used, and credit my work. Other than that, I'm happy to help you out in whatever way possible, just contact me.

Thanks so much for the photo of Oran McIlvaine's stone. I was so touched by his obituary, that I wanted to make a memorial for him. I appreciate the photo.

Miles lewis 52372141
Thanks for the heads up on the error in Miles' bio. Someone else entered their three children who are buried with them, and try as I might, I can't get them linked up. So I put links to them into Miles & Hannah's bio. But I did Hannah's first, then just copy/paste'd it into Miles. I changed the She and Her's to He's and His, but missed the mother/father thing. Now it's fixed

Thanks also for doing the links for the Charles Lewis family and for transferring Charles to me.

Thank you for trying. It says she is buried at West Side in Geneva on her death certificate. I don't know what to think.
