You can write the Adams County Vital Statistics office. You will need to send in (I believe) $9 for a certified copy of the death certificate. Once they receive your check, they are pretty fast about getting the copy out. I would say maybe one week to 10 days?

You can get an copy that is not certified for $1.00 or $2.00, at any County Clerks Office. I should in the county where the person died and in Illinois, I don't know about other state. If the person died between 1916 and 1948 you can get a free copy from the IL death index website (link below) with a 3-6 month wait. http://www.cyberdriveillinois.com/departments/archives/genealogy/forms/idphd eathsrch.html
