WILL Cemetery
The WILL family cemetery, better known as "Wills", is located along the Roots Road, just north of
Ellis Grove.  Cross the Kaskaskia River, and it is a short way, on the RIGHT, nestled among a
growth of trees.  In the summer it is almost impossible to see, as there is no definite road 
going  back to it, just a very lightly graveled path.  It is fenced and seemed well cared for.

A note on the entries below:  many of the stones just had the year of birth/death...and due to problems 
from a virus my computer had, the program will no longer just enter a date alone.  On these entries
I have written 'unknown' before the year.  On the stones where the date was unreadable, I have noted that also.  The 'X' is my way of filling the space for a neater presentation.
