The materials in this collection primarily deal with subjects of interest to genealogists, and date from the mid-1800’s to 1990’s.  A sizeable portion of the collection relates to materials on DeKalb County, especially cemetery records. There are also a number of publications dealing with genealogical and historical subjects in greater Illinois.  In addition there are materials of general interest to local historians.  Florence Marshall’s correspondence with others seeking help with their genealogical research problems are also found in this collection.
