Currently, the library has on loan 3 large displays from the Illinois Society of the War of 1812. Â This group has as part of its mission to locate and place markers on graves of veterans of the War of 1812. Â The panels show photos of society members, newly found and marked graves and the descendants of some of the veterans of that long ago and sometimes forgotten war. Â If you know of an unmarked grave of a veteran of the War of 1812, you are asked to email the information to rwridenour@wildblue.net. Â No veteran should ever be forgotten!
