Genealogy queries are an effective way to locate others who are
researching the same family names you are and to share information
with them. There are many places on the Internet where one can post
queries.
Specifically in Illinois, each county within the ILGenWeb project
provides information on where one might pose a query for that specific
county. To find the individual counties, please visit the ILGenWeb's
