Welcome to the Hardin County, ILGenWeb site. This county is available for adoption by a volunteer with an interest in Hardin County genealogy and time to dedicate to making this a great county in the tradition of ILGenWeb. If you are interested contact Cheryl Rothwell to discuss it.

Thanks to Jon Musgrave for his many years of dedication to this and other southern Illinois counties and Illinois GenWeb. Jon can be found at www.IllinoisHistory.com. Ginger Hayes set up Hardin County originally. She can be found in neighboring Pope County.

If you see broken links or other problems please let me know. If you have material to donate please save it for the new County Coordinator.

This site is part of the ILGenWeb Project, a collection of 102 sites for each county in Illinois, plus a number of state pages. ILGenWeb in turn is part of the US GenWeb Project which grew out of the efforts of a group of Kentucky genealogists right across the river from Hardin. All of these sites are non-commercial and managed by volunteers.
