Welcomes You to:
Cass County, Illinois

Your Cass County host is Roger Bruce Whitaker.

I was born in Beardstown back when there was a hospital there. Growing up in the country near Virginia, close to Shiloh Church. I attended school in Virginia. Some of my ancestors were in Cass County by 1826 so I've got some roots there I'll be very grateful for suggestions for content from you, the visitors to the site. Please feel free to e-mail Roger.

Many thanks to original Cass County host Pat Hageman for all her hard work in developing this site.

If anyone has information that you would like to see on this site, please contact Roger.
