PREFACE

The following genealogical abstracts were copied from the original bound volumes of the Milan Weekly Independent , currently stored at the Rock Island County Historical Society building in Moline, Illinois.

Milan is a community, south of the Rock River, which was originally called Camden, and was laid out by William Dickson in 184). In 1848 the name was changed to Camden Mills, on account of there being another Camden in Schuyler County. In 1870 the name was changed to Milan. The place was incorporated as a village in 1865.

The abstracts include all information of genealogical value-births, marriages, deaths, probates, visits from out of county relatives, anniversaries, and local histories. This volume has an every-surname index at the back; those common surnames have also been indexed by given name.

Janet K. Pease is a charter member of Blackhawk Genealogical Society and lives in Arvada, Colorado. She is the author of numerous genealogical publications, many we have published. We wish to extend our sincere and warmest thanks to her for her generosity.
