- Some of the lookup researchers listed on this page are "VOLUNTEERS" - which means they offer their services at NO charge (not even for copies!!!).
- Some of the lookup researchers listed on this page are "EXPENSE ONLY RESEARCHERS" - which means they offer their services and charge VERY minimal fees for reimbursement of their expenses only. If you find that ANY of these researchers are charging for "time", please let me know so that I can remove them from this list.
These LOOKUP RESEARCHER and VOLUNTEER lists are intended as an aid for those who cannot hire a professional genealogist... they will not be used as a free advertising media for personal profit!
If you find that you need to hire a professional genealogist, please check the Cook County ILGenWeb Genealogy Research page for Society and Organizations that might make referrals.
USGenWeb is a non profit entity and Cook County ILGenWeb will not allow any "FOR PROFIT" distribution of research material.
Please limit your request to one or two names per request.
The subject line of your email will be automatically entered when you "click" on the researcher's name to ensure that your email is not overlooked or accidentally deleted. PLEASE do NOT change the subject line!
