Exiles
of
Madeira
by Rev. W. M. Blackburn
Philadelphia: Presbyterian Board of Publication, 1860
Published after the arrival of Madeirans in the
Jacksonville and Springfield Illinois area, this book describes
the events that led to the migration a number of my ancestors and
perhaps yours as well. Xeroxed by George R. "Correia"
Coraor and scanned by Robert J. Coraor, these images are provided
for those who do not have access to the book and want to know
more about their heritage. Each "page" is actually the
image of two pages, e.g. Page 2 will show both page 2 and 3. If
you would like a CD-ROM of the page images in higher quality(
.tif format) than seen here just send me an e-mail with your
address ($10 to cover mailing and CD cost, sorry only PC format
available not Macintosh). Click this icon to send e-mail
