We are proud to announce that Edgar County Genealogy Library is now a FamilySearch Affiliate Library, which means it has access to more digital genealogy resources to help you make family discoveries.

ECGL visitors will now have convenient access to the wealth of genealogical resources available through FamilySearch – including digital records and images that are otherwise only available at a FamilySearch Center or Affiliate Library.

Edgar County Genealogy Library (ECGL) is home to an extensive collection of materials about the genealogy and history of Edgar County, Illinois. Located in the Edgar County Historical Complex annex, it began as an offspring of both the Edgar County Historical and Genealogical Societies and continues as part of the Historical Society. The Library is staffed by volunteers to assist with your research. It is supported by sales of its publications, research fees, and donations directed to Edgar County Genealogy Library.
