Old Settlers' Memorial Roll 1898-1899, MACOUPIN COUNTY ENQUIRER, August
17, 1899
(The list was presented by the secretary of an Old Settlers' Reunion held
the middle of August every year for some years.)
(Note: This list was in chronological order in the old newspaper. Here,
we have put the names in alphabetical order.)
* The entries marked with an asterisk did not have a year given, so I have
tried to use the most logical year in relation to the order they were printed.
Just please be advised that the starred items could be either 1898 or 1899.
