Trying to locate "History of the Pan Handle" by John R. Lewis. I contacted Derrick Babbs from the Ford County Historical Society. He has not seen a copy of this publication; he has been looking also. He did note that John R. Lewis settled in Piper City.
I ordered "Where the Sky Began," by John Madson from the Paxton Library. A description of life on the prairie before it was plowed under.
And also today at the library picked up "East Central Ilinois. Exploring the Beginnings," by Elisabeth M. Hanson. This book has an interesting reference to the Chatsworth Bog, Livingtson County. Never heard of the Chatsworth Bog.
