ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
The rare copy of Nixon's Jacksonville City Directory for 1868-69, from which this re- production was made, was loaned to the Jacksonville Area Genealogical and Histor- ical Society by Mr. Robert Tendick of Jacksonville, Illinois. The original owners, now deceased, were Mr. and Mrs. Clifford W. Fanning of Murrayville, Illinois. The librar- ian, Mrs. Mary Frances Alkire, assisted by Mr. Tendick, carefully photocopied the entire directory. Special publication chairman, Mrs. Ruth L. Lepper, prepared the copy for publi- cation and Mr. William Benson of Dallas, Texas designed the cover.
INTRODUCTION
Because the original outside cover pages and lettered pages A-K had been printed on colored paper, they were badly deteriorated. The out- side cover pages, both front and back, are copied on page 1 of this edition; however, due to their nearly unreadable condition, Mrs. Lepper has assembled a reasonable facsimile of these pages which appear on the inside of the back cover of this publication. The top por- tion of page A had been destroyed and is herein replaced by a similar ad. The simulations were copied from Springfield, Illinois, directories of the same era.

A SKETCH OF JACKSONVILLE. -
WE are indebted to the Hon. MURRAY MCCONNELL for the following brief and excellent Sketch of the CITY OF JACK- SONVILLE:
JACKSONVILLE, ILL., Sept. 25, 1868. To W. A. Nixon, Esq.,
DEAR SIR: You request me to jot down for you a short history of Jacksonville, to be published in your Directory for the City, now being prepared by you, and I proceed to do so in as few words as I can, to give your readers the information they will expect in a work of the kind you pro- pose to publish.
The Legislature of Illinois, in January, 1823, established by law the county of Morgan, and appointed three persons to locate a county seat. The country then included in the county now composes the counties of Morgan, Scott and Cass. Owing to the fact that at that time but a few inhabi- tants resided within those boundaries, the Legislature thought proper to provide that the county seat to be located under said law should be temporary only, leaving it to some future Legislature to provide for the permanent location of the county seat. . This temporary county seat was located at a place called "Olmstead's Mounds," some eight or nine miles nearly west of the present City of Jacksonville.
The session of the Legislature of 1824-5, passed another law touching the county seat of said county, in which three
8

persons were appointed to permanently locate the county seat of said county, and in said law it was provided that if said county seat should be located upon land belonging to any private citizen, the owner or owners of the same should donate to the county twenty acres, to be laid out in lots and sold, the proceeds of which should be applied to the build- ing of a court house and jail for said county.
In obedience to this law the three persons appointed loca- ted the county seat in the center of a quarter section of land composed of the east half of the north-east quarter of section twenty, and the west half of the north-west quarter of sec- tion twenty-one, in township fifteen north of the base line, and in range ten west of the third principal meridian.
The day this county seat was located the land belonged to the Government of the United States, but the next day, at nine o'clock in the morning, the Government sold it at pri- vate sale at one dollar and a quarter per acre, to Thomas Arnitt and Isaae Dial, two citizens residing near the plaec. Aruitt purchasing the tract in section twent;, and Dial the traet in seetion twenty-one. Arnitt and Dial resolved, in connection with the county, to lay out a town upon said land, and by an agreement between these owners and the county commissioner's court, a line was drawn from east to west, through the center of the quarter seetion, and Arnitt and Dial conveyed by deeds to the county, each twenty acres immediately on the north side of that line. This donation by those proprietors contained forty aeres, being double the quantity required by said law to be given to the county. On the tenth of March, 1825, those proprietors, for them- selves, and the county court for the county, laid out a town on eighty acres of land, in a square form, in the center of said one hundred and sixty aere traet, the county owning the north half and the proprietors the south half, and after much research and deliberation in selecting a name, they

ealled the town Jacksonville, after General Andrew Jackson, he being the great man of that day.
Previous to that time there had been a public road laid out from Springfield, the then recently located county seat of Sangamon county, to the town of Naples, on the Illinois river, in Morgan county. This road, by way of eminence and distinction, was called the State road. This State road passed east and west on the top of the ridge of land directly over the spot selected for said county seat. The surveyor who laid out the town, (Mr. Johnston Shelton,) began the survey by laying out a central square of land, containing something more than five acres, directly in the center of the said one hundred and sixty acre tract, the State road running through the center of the square. Upon this State road he located a street, sixty feet wide, intending it to run due east and west across said one hundred and sixty acres, and on the north line of the land belonging to the proprietors. Thus loeating one-half of said square and one-half of the width of the street on the land of said private owners, and the other half on the land of the county. This street was ealled State street. ì
A street was then laid out running north and south through the center of said land and said central square, of the same width, and it was called Main street. Taking those two streets as base lines, the town was laid out into square blocks, of one hundred and eighty feet nine inches on each side, which blocks were divided into three lots, each of equal size. All other streets, except those two, were made forty feet wide, and the alleys twenty feet wide, all running at right angles with each other.
The county offices and all county business were removed from the temporary county seat at Olmstead's Mound to Jacksonville, in the summer of 1825, and the first circuit court was held at Jacksonville in September of that year. 2-

A SKETCH OF JACKSONVILLE.
In 1826 the first court house was built in Jacksonville. It was located on the land on the north side of State street, and west of Main street, and on that part of the center square that had been conveyed to the county. It was a two story frame building, thirty by forty feet square, set upon round blocks, and cost about four hundred and fifty dollars. There was but one term of the circuit court held in this house, the same being burned in December, 1827, together with the records of the courts of the county. The loss, however, in those records was not great, as the county had not been long organized, and bnt a few records had been made. The original plat, however, of the town, and the deeds from Aruitt and Dial to the county for the land where- on the north half of the town was laid out, were burned, but the record-book containing copies of said plat and of those deeds was seenred, the recorder, Dennis Rockwell, having, accidentally, said book at his house on the night of the fire.
To supply the place of the court house burned, the pres- ent court house (now called the old court house) was built in 1829 and 1830, and was the first brick house in the county. This house was located on the same center square of land, on the south side of said State street, and west of Main street, and cost about four thousand dollars. This old court house is shortly to give place to a new and elegant structure now being built on the second block west of the square on the north side of State street, on that part of said eighty acres of land conveyed by Arnitt to the county, and this old edifice will soon be removed and forgotten.
Much might be said in praise of the enterprise of the inhabitants of the city in years past, of the elemosynary institutions, and institutions of learning that have clustered around the city. I could tell you of the first preachers and the first churches, and the first schools, but I am not sure

you would deem that exactly appropriate in a work like the one you propose to publish. I could go into the personal history of the first and earliest settlers of the town; tell when they arrived and where they were from, how they lived, and when they died, but all this would be biography and not local history. Therefore I respectfully submit to you what I have written to be by you published or not, or used as you may think will best promote the objects intended by your book.
With great respect I am yours,
M. M'CONNELL.
