Village President Diane McGinley offers letters to residents with an update on the Village’s response efforts to COVID-19:
The DuPage County Health Department has launched an interactive COVID-19 case map. The dashboard links data from the DuPage County Health Department into Geographic Information System (GIS) Data Systems from DuPage County to provide a greater level of understanding into how the COVID-19 pandemic is unfolding across our communities.
DuPage County does not release exact locations or addresses of the confirmed cases, due to privacy and HIPAA laws. Information including age range, gender as well as municipality of residence of the cases identified through testing will be incorporated. Since testing resources are limited to the most severe cases and at-risk populations, this does not reflect total disease presence in our communities. As testing becomes more available, this information will become more reflective of the actual disease activity in the community.
Our senior citizen population is at a higher risk for severe illness because of COVID-19. The Glen Ellyn Senior Center is providing information on services available to our seniors to help ensure their health and safety during this time.
Access a local resource guide for seniors by clickingHERE. The guide includes information on a grocery stores that have dedicated shopping hours just for senior citizens, information on which pharmacies and grocery stores offer delivery services and other social service resources.
If you or a senior you know feel as though further assistance is needed, please contact the Glen Ellyn Senior Center at 630-858-6343 or email the Senior Center.
Anxiety, stress and fear are common mental health issues that many are facing at this time. If you or someone you know, adults or children, are experiencing fear and anxiety about coronavirus, please review the CDC’s information about Mental Health and Coping with COVID-19.

Almost 150 years after a writer inscribed his last entry in a ledger, it has been rediscovered and is now in the hands of Glen Ellyn historians and archivists, where it may serve to enlighten -- and possibly rewrite -- some of Glen Ellyn's history.
The journal, along with letters belonging to an early settler and Glen Ellyn area farmer Gilbert Way, was first discovered in 1953 under the floorboards of a house, which has a unique history of its own.
'I'm pretty excited about it,' said Dan Anderson, member of the Glen Ellyn Historical Society Development Committee and chairman of the Capital Campaign.
'The ledger is a treasure trove of information that will underscore what we already know -- or perhaps shed new light on what we think we know.'
The owner of the ledger, Judy Cuff, remembered the house where she and her family lived from 1953 to 1961, and has heard the tale of how the ledger was uncovered when she was just a baby.
'My grandmother was looking for a place which could accommodate catering,' she said. 'It was actually two houses joined together. My parents had to make some renovations on the other side of the house to make it habitable. As they were tearing up floorboards, they came across the ledger.'
The site of the ledger was a property in the Glen Ellyn Countryside area, north of North Avenue on Glen Ellyn Road. The journal has remained in the family's possession since that time.
'I always knew that it had historical significance,' Cuff said.
When she was younger, Cuff recalls taking the ledger to school to show her classmates. As time went on, the family would even loan the ledger out to others when asked. After her mother passed away in 1992, Cuff, who still lives in Glen Ellyn, took possession of the journal. Recently, she ran into people from the Glen Ellyn History Center and mentioned what she had. Their reaction was telling.
'They were so excited about it, I knew it was in the right hands,' she said.
Anderson added, 'It was kind of a 'Eureka' moment. The handwriting is somewhat faded, but we realized it was Gilbert Way's ledger book. This is what we call original source material.'
Gilbert Way settled in this area in 1837, and his 1840 wedding to Harriet Fish was one of the first weddings in town. In the ledger are entries that detail the farmer's accounts as he methodically recorded his business transactions.
Throughout the pages are scrawled names like Newton, Churchill, Stacy, McChesney, Ackerman and other well-known area first families, with whom he did business.
'It's not a diary, but has some elements of a diary in it,' Anderson said. 'A lot of the entries make for really interesting reading. It's like being transported back 150 years in time.'
Bob Chambers, who co-authored the book 'Glen Ellyn, A Village Remembered,' looks at the ledger as the beginning of a larger research project, as there is much more that can be learned from it, including the history of the property where it was found.
'It's in the works,' he said. 'We'll be digging up the history of that house now.'
Chambers already has begun the painstaking task of researching the county records for its sequence of owners. Having the ledger in their possession for now is a job that those at the Glen Ellyn Historical Society take very seriously. They are treating it with care, and will diligently use it as a research tool while it is on loan.
'I always knew the ledger was important,' Cuff said. 'It's always just been this book that has been in the family for 55 years. Who would have thought it would have this far-reaching effect?'
