Hi Gloria, The Death book covers the period Dec 1877-Jan 1903. The information included varies greatly by entry, but can include number of years in Illinois, where born, marital status, occupation, age at death, date and place of death, cause of death, and where and when the person was buried. An index to all entries is on the Clinton website. Should you find an entry for which you would like further information, simply follow the instructions given at the site and I will give you the particulars for the record(s) you request. Laura

Laura, I have the death date and cemetery, but the name isn't showing in the online death book listing. Is he not listed? Perhaps a misspelling or something? Looking for the death record of: Heinrich/ Deutsch born: 16 Dec 1825, Edenkoben, Germany died: 10 May 1890 buried: St John's Cemetery, Section A, Row 5, Walk 15 He lived in Breese 1868-1890.
