Headlines come from the outlets that cover Essex, found through Google News; stories with Essex in the headline come first, and outlets or places that aren’t Essex, IL are left out. Articles belong to their publishers and aren’t independently verified; every story links to the publisher who wrote it. Topics are sorted automatically from each headline’s words. Notices, meetings and events come from the town, school district and library websites, read every morning and linked to the page that posted them. Game listings come from the NFHS Network.
