Karen Hammer's Peoria Co., Il @ AHGP--- No longer exists!!! as of May 29, 2008 was there yesterday gone today.

Karen, has loads of tombstone photos online with many more to come as I've taken some for her, she's been herself & taken some and then some have contributed to her for your pleasure but are under copy right laws.  Email Karen for Information on the Cemetery and also if you would have any to contribute.

 You may also contribute to me at the above email link of the my doggie and I will see that they get online here too. Leaving that up to you. But I don't know that much about Peoria County, IL, Cemeteries, best bet if Karen and the Peoria County Genealogical Society by contacting either one of them first.

Thanks for time.

Another good Peoria Co., IL site for Genealogical Information can be found here.

Not going to continue to make all townships with all cemeteries in their prospective townships as it takes too long to make.  So, will just be putting the cemeteries with their townships and then add when others want to contribute to this site or somebody wants to adopt it and put more online. Thanks.

Thanks for your help.
