Chancery Records

Monroe County, Illinois, Chancery Court Records, Book #1, compiled and indexed by Janet Flynn, Pat Vaseska.

This book contains a brief description of each Chancery Court record contained in drawers numbered A-63, A-64, A-65, A-66, A-67, A-68 and A-69 for the years 1835-1905. However, these records are very confusing. At some point, about 1865 as near as we can determine, the land cases were separated out from the divorce cases. All are scattered about in the cabinets in no kind of order that we can figure out.

At some point, we plan on making a chart of all the drawers in the bank of cabinets containing the Chancery Court cases and others (foreclosures, etc.) We will probably not live long enough to get them all indexed, but at least we will know what is there and where it is.

These cases are fascinating. After reviewing them, we realized all too well that abuse, incest, neglect, etc. are not just modern day incidents and that the women were not always innocent. You may find out that Granny could wield a mean rolling pin!

The book contains 45 pages, and 11 pages for the index. See the Publications Page for ordering information. If you would like a copy of the complete file for any case, please contact me at the P.O. Box or via e-mail: [email protected]. A charge of $10 per case, plus the cost of copying and postage, will be charged.
