A new Clinton County,
Illinois, history and family biography book is in the making! Along with the
history section, this new book will also contain an expanded CHURCH section of
the vital Clinton County churches as recorded in 2004 for future generations to
read.
As a significant member of
the county’s church community, you will want to put the history of your church
in print for future generations and historians to enjoy. All Clinton County
churches are invited to submit their written history for prominent display in
the professionally designed church history section. Imagine the prestige that
will be rendered to your church by including it in this PERMANENT RECORD. It is
expected that Clinton County, Illinois: History and Families will be over 200
pages when finished. It will be 8 1/2” x 11” and hard bound with a full color
cover. Only high quality, acid-free paper will be used for excellent photo
reproduction.
In writing your church
history, include any information you feel pertinent: the date your church was
started, location(s). who founded the church, growth, etc. and a historic and
current photo of your church (if possible). For a full page, you will want to
submit approximately 800 words with no more than two photos. For a half page
history, you will want to submit approximately 300 words with not more than one
photo. For a quarter page history, submit no more than 100 words with one small
photo. (Click on the Sample Link To View Examples.)
All church pages are being sold for $225.00 for a full page, $175.00 for a half page and $125.00 for a quarter page. Please submit all material and money to the address below. A complimentary copy of the book is included with any patron space purchased.
