• Historical Aerial Photography for Vermilion County, Illinois (From 1940):  This is an interesting resource I just found.  It has aerial maps of Vermilion County (well a lot of Illinois) from 1940.  Kind of like the satellite maps of today found on Google and such, but were taken by airplanes flying above and snapping pictures.  I will study these more when I have time, but I think I have already possible found a location of a cemetery which had been destroyed since the time the photo's had been taken.   [Express view browser Plug-in to view maps may be needed]

Subject: I'm Amazed

Michael I am amazed at this site. I just finished looking at the Oak Hill cemetary site where my dad, and both sets of grandparents are buried along with numerous friends of my parents. I visit my dad's grave quite often as well as my grandparents (Verhoeven and Harrier). This is great, how do you find the time?
