Bob: There are two Luther Frazier's listed in the death data base, one of them is the one you're looking for. If you want to see ALL of the Fraziers before you make your trip to Springfield, just insert "Frazier" in the "Last name" block on http://www.sos.state.il.us/GenealogyMWeb/idphdeathsrch.html and leave it at Statewide. ----- Original Message ----- From: robert frazier To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, November 04, 2003 10:33 PM Subject: Re: [ILCLINTON] Death certificates Thank you for thinking o As far as the Zinschlag all died befor 1915.f me. I would like a copy of my fathers death certificate. LUTHER J. FRAZIER dod March 25 1947 in Marion County. He was killed in the Wamac Coal mine disaster of that date. I am not sure of the county. I have been told part of three counties located in Wamac. I do know the courthouse at Carlyle does not have his records. I could not pull dads name from the index. If you run out of time or can't locate, I will be going to Springfield in the future. If successful, please tell me where to send $$. Thanks.
