Nancy my relatives from Owen County lived in Murdock and Tuscola. Does the
Urbana Library have information that would help me with them?

Nancy,
We live in Urbana, Illinois and have access to good archives at the Urbana
Free Library. They are supported by the genealogical society and have a
great collection beyond our county and access to the Internet with library
version of
Ancestry.com and lots of other help to research. If your
Illinois travels bring you here, call and let me know. If not, and you have
some Illinois research that I could help with, drop me a line.
In Owen County you will find the Owen County Library in downtown Spencer,
Indiana, with an extensive collection of Owen County materials and good
staff. They have good maps of the cemeteries with directions. Laura
Wilkerson is very helpful.
The motel is comfortable and pleasant. Happy hunting.

I will be coming to Owen County in May from TX and would welcome suggestions
of places to research and things to see. My grandfather, John Jacob Welty
was born in Morgan County and lived in Owen County from 1870 through 1880.
In 1900 he is in Illinois.
