DeKalb County MOGenWeb Project

DeKalb County was organized on 25 February 1845 from Clinton County and is named after the American Revolutionary War general Johann de Kalb.

All of the information here is provided free for personal use, but may not be used commercially or sold without the specific permission of both the original submitter and the County Coordinator. Many records were lost in an 1878 courthouse fire.

The DeKalb County MOGenWeb project is part of the USGenWeb project. The purpose of the project is to help provide free genealogy resources for people doing research in DeKalb County.

Please contact the current County Coordinators, Kris or Kelly, if you have any questions, comments, problems or submissions.
