Laona Freewill Baptist Church - 1887
I am searching for the records of my ggrandfather. His name was Robert Cahoon Kirby. He was ordained at Laona Freewill Baptist Church in March of 1887. We had previously thought this church to be in Winnebago County, Illinois.His certificate was signed by Reverand John Silvernail and Rufus Lord, clerk. Robert married Mary Jane Johnson in Beloit, Wisconsin. May 4th, 1875. I would like to know if this church is still open and if they have any records of Robert ever preaching there. Does anyone know of this church? Can anyone supply me with an address.
Any help is very much appreciated! Lettie Kirby
