Volume II, Westfall Cemetery History, takes the cemetery list in Volume I and goes much further. It includes 383 obituaries out of the 660 individuals buried there. Where no obituary could be found, census records, service records, birth, death and marriage certificate information, county history abstracts and research notes have been added to enhance and create a complete record. The obituaries are recreated just as they were originally and all discrepancies between headstone, obituary and cemetery records have been noted. The work contains 2,677 names of those interred and their surviving relatives. It is a historical record of how these people lived and died throughout the 164 year history of the cemetery and an essential reference book for Knox County research. Volume II of the Westfall Cemetery is much more than an obituary list. It is a complete genealogical reference book for anyone interested in Knox County, Illinois, the Westfall family or any of its 145 allied lines.

The Pulitzer Prize–winning poet and historian recalls his midwestern boyhood in this classic memoir. Born in a tiny cottage in Galesburg, Illinois, in 1878, Carl Sandburg grew with America. As a boy he left school at the age of thirteen to embark on a life of work—driving a milk wagon and serving as a hotel porter, a bricklayer, and a farm laborer before eventually finding his place in the world of literature. In Always the Young Strangers, Sandburg delivers a nostalgic view of small-town life around the turn of the twentieth century and an invaluable perspective on American history.
