What area of Effingham County? The Effingham Daily News in on line and some obituaries are in their archives. Otherwise, I'd suggest getting in touch with the Genealogy Society. They don't have their own web page, but are headquartered in the Helen Mathes Library in Effingham.

Actually, the people lived mostly by Stewardson, Illinois. I attempted Shelby Co. Hist. Soc., but they told me they didn't have anything-to try Effingham, since they lived closer to Effingham. Some of the obits go back to the 1930's and come forward from there. Could you tell me how to find the Daily News archives? Do you happen to know anything about the Bob Doane Cemetery? I know it is in Fayette Co., but a funeral home indicated they thought Effingham Co. had the records...
