Illinois "Wish List"

 * The Illinois Migration page needs a brief intro, and a map or two. It could use some idea of the value of knowing these migration routes. AdkinsWH 17:04, 1 May 2014 (UTC)


 * The Illinois Genealogy Records with Birth Information page could use an Illinois researcher to edit it to be sure no user is mislead in years or birth info covered. Also if there are additional records. AdkinsWH 00:05, 9 May 2014 (UTC)
 * The Illinois County Creation Dates and Parent Counties page. Click here for details of the how to do these fixes.
 * Would it benefit from the "proposed, extinct, and non-county areas" mentioned in Boundary Changes by Newberry Library?
 * Would the dates these [failed] counties were proposed be helpful if YOUR ancestor's lived in that area?
 * Would the page benefit by adding another column for which IRAD Depository has the historical records for each county?


 * Does require Wikitext for an easy-to-understand table format and to create links to historical boundary changes. The pattern is simple to follow once you are in Wikitext on the page.
