HELP!

 

Various correspondents are looking for information on the following ghost towns in ILLINOIS.  These are not listed on my main page for this state, nor do I have anything in my records on them.  Are you able to help?  If so please respond to me and I will forward the information on to those looking for the information.

 

DUPONT:

            Looking for any information on Dupont, Illinois.  In particular, an explosion happened there in 1906. On a copy

of an old map, it looks to be close to Midlothian Illinois. Any help will be appreciated.  Cliff Barg

 

KINGLAND COAL FIELDS: Rock Island Co. (???)

“My grandfather, born in 1872 worked at a place in Illinois called the Kingland Coal Field. He worked there before 1900. Could anyone please let me know if this would have been in Rock Island County? Or do you know where it was located?”
