Welcome
It is a pleasure to have you visit this free genealogical site about the historic people of Greene County, Illinois. We hope you find our efforts helpful in your research of your Greene county roots.
Certainly many were saddened to hear that Marty Crull made the decision in 2011 to resign his position as Greene County ILGenWeb site coordinator. His enthusiastic endeavors to gather, coordinate, and provide comprehensive information will be sorely missed. Marty turned over a repository containing thousands of electronic files.
Unfortunately, by the time the files were passed to me most of the site links were broken. Technical problems prevented some of the file folders from transfering. Some of the files appear to be for other counties. Working through the 4,800 files received will test my abilities for many months. Please be patient with me as I attempt to restore as much of the previous holdings as possible, as soon as possible.
In the meantime, I offer this new site format. Although you are welcome to browse, I highly recommend using the site's Search page to find your surname references quickly. Then, I encourage you to check the What's New page periodically.
Naturally, I could use your help.
- Please, don't hesitate to contribute images or transcriptions of genealogical items you have about Greene county ancestors. They will receive top priority.
- Feel free to submit your Greene County ancestors' family group sheets or descendants charts. Again, they will treated with priority.
- If you notice a typo or broken link on this site, please let me know.
- If you see something added for a county other than Greene, please let me know.
- If you have the time and desire to help in any way, please volunteer.
Your e-mail contributions to Greene coordinator will be appreciated and promptly worked for incorporation into the site.
Enjoy your stay, and come again soon!
Norma Hass
Site Coordinator
