Pinckneyville History Project
Perry County February 2010 Journal

The Perry County Historical Society plans to create a book with photographs, maps and information about the different businesses that have existed in Pinckneyville in the past.  In addition, we will use this opportunity to create a database about the businesses for seeking information in the future.  For more information about the Perry County Historical Society call Bill Timpner (618) 357-8112 or Lance Feik (618) 357-8610. Visit the Perry County Jail Museum at 108 W Jackson St., Pinckneyville, IL 62274 on Mondays 8-3 or Wednesday mornings 8-12.  The Museum features examples & items of domestic life of the past, a replica of a one room school house, on-going quilting with quilters working on Mondays, genealogy resources, Lincoln book collection, an 1800 cell block with original inmate art and other items of historical interest.
