Hi Paul, I do not have a death list for Hancock County and anything before 1918 would not be listed on the Illinois State Archive list. In fact you would be lucky to find one at the County Clerks office for 1875 You might write the Hancock County Historical Society and see if they can help and they use to do courthouse searchs for a fee. They have a web site and you could E-mail them. Here is the address: hancockhistory@yahoo.com give them a try before you write the county clerk. Roberta Summers

I just emailed the Hancock County Historical Society about membership at the hancockhistory@yahoo.com and in the reply they(Frank Burkett,volunteer,) sent this following message about the e-mail address::::: Please use our other email address in the future hchs68@adams.net. We are getting so many kooky emails on yahoo it is hard to tell which ones are genuine and related to genealogical pursuits. Just thought I would pass along this info.
