The Western Michigan Genealogical Society received a sizable donation of books this past summer from Barbara Vander Mark. If you have Illinois ancestors, especially from McLean County, you need to review this list. We’ve sent the books on to the Grand Rapids Public Library and the titles are now on the shelves on the 4th floor.

Thanks Barbara!
