A large sign with the name of 48 Civil War veterans hangs on a fence in Peoria. The area is believed to be the final resting place of the veterans and others, including Nance Legins-Costley, the first slave legally freed by Abraham Lincoln.Matt Dayhoff | Journal Star (AP)
PEORIA (AP) This 1892 undertaker’s report by the Peoria Health Department records the April 6 death of Nance Legins-Costley, about halfway down the page on the left. The entry has several errors, including her name listed as “Nancy Costly.” Also, though she was born in Kaskaskia in 1813, the ledger lists her birthplace as Maryland and her death age as 104. ....

First slave freed by Lincoln buried under Illinois pavement


PEORIA — If the world were just, the name of Nance Legins-Costley would resonate amid the likes of Harriet Tubman, Frederick Douglass and other abolitionist rebels.
But her story is hardly known. Not in Illinois, where — despite anti-slavery laws — she was born into bondage. Not in Pekin, where — despite anti-Black attitudes — she became a beloved community figure. And certainly not in Peoria, where — despite her impressive life — she is buried in ignominy.
Perhaps her story is more subtle than those of high-profile abolitionist leaders, yet her fortitude was astounding. Barely a teen, she first stood up for her civil rights in a court of law that was stacked against Black people. Even amid legal defeats, she kept seeking the most basic of rights: freedom. ....

BEARDSTOWN A dive team is closer to being formed in Beardstown.
The need arose after the drowning of two boys in the summer in the Illinois River.
Beardstown Fire Department Chief Brian Becker has been working with Bob Fitzsimmons, a coordinator with the Morgan County Dive Team, to get it started.
To prepare, the team have been going to classes since November for open water diving and there are plans to become public safety divers after that. Open water training requires many hours for training and hands on training in the pool. ....

Congressmen want Biden to retain John Milhiser in short term


Congressmen want Biden to retain John Milhiser in short term
February 11, 2021 GMT
SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) Two Republican congressmen say the U.S. attorney in central Illinois appointed by former President Donald Trump should remain on the job until his replacement is approved by the U.S. Senate.
Reps. Congressmen Rodney Davis of Taylorville and Darin LaHood of Peoria say John Milhiser should not be immediately dismissed by President Joe Biden’s administration.
The U.S. Department of Justice announced Tuesday the Biden administration has ``begun the transition process for the U.S. attorneys,” a traditional move by new presidents. In a joint statement, Davis and LaHood said the move would be ``reckless and irresponsible” for the administration to dismiss Milhiser or John Lausch the U.S attorney in northern Illinois, who is investigating public corruption that has tainted former House Speaker Michael Madigan and others. ....
