Illinois Genealogy Trails
Presents
Lake County, Illinois 

The dedicated, original hosts of
Illinois Trails have begun an exciting new project-Genealogy Trails,
to help researchers across the country find their ancestors,
 wherever their trails lead.

We remain dedicated to putting genealogical and historical data online
for researchers across the US to access--FOR FREE.


 Hello, my name is Anne Kunzen, and I would like to welcome you to my Lake County pages at Illinois Genealogy Trails. Several of my own ancestors came to settle in Lake County from places like Vermont and Massachusetts. I have always been fascinated by the history of Lake County. These pages are my attempt to share what I have learned, in the hopes that you will come closer to knowing more about your own ancestors who lived here.

Since I have just begun these pages, there is not a lot of data, but there will be information added on a regular basis, so please check back often. However, I am only one person, and I could always use some help. 


Did you know...
 
Lake County was formed from part of McHenry County?
You may want to also search for your ancestors at my
McHenry County page at IL Genealogy Trails.
