When posting queries, please make them concise, brief and to the point. If the query is too long, too wordy it might be hard to comprehend. ADD DATES as well as names. CAPITALIZE all surnames. Remember your query must pertain to Marion County, Illinois or I can not post it. Remember to ADD YOUR NAME and E-MAIL ADDRESS AT THE BOTTOM OF YOUR QUERY. If possible, add your mailing address as some people do not always have access to the internet. I do this manually so I will try to get your query posted as soon as I can. Check back often. Thank you and good luck!
Make sure you use lower case if that is what your email address consists of as I do copy and paste. If you type your email address with all caps, it will be pasted that way and will not work.
