Pleasant Township Officials

From History of Madison County, W. H. Beers & Co, Chicago, 1883

This township, organized in 1810, was put in working order by the election of officers, held by order of the Commissioners at the house of Forgus Graham; but who the officers were, or who their successors were down to the year 1869, we have no means of knowing or finding out, as the records of the township prior to that date are all lost or destroyed by fire; hence, we can only give them since the above-mentioned date:
