Has anyone had any luck getting one of these lately? My understanding is that they are understaffed and files from years ago for genealogists are not a priority.

I went toe-to-toe with the Medical Examiner's Office about five years ago, to no avail whatsoever.  It's like every written communication fell into a black hole.  Promises over the phone never kept.  Calls never returned.  Maybe things have changed.  Let us know if you have any better luck.   Ruth --- On Mon, 3/29/10, Kim Stankiewicz <[email protected]> wrote: From: Kim Stankiewicz <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [COOK-CO-IL] Question re: Coroner's Report To: "'Mary Snow'" <[email protected]>, [email protected] Date: Monday, March 29, 2010, 2:39 PM Has anyone had any luck getting one of these lately?  My understanding is that they are understaffed and files from years ago for genealogists are not a priority.
