Hi all!!, I have a couple of questions for you people in Jasper County Illinois. maybe one of you can clear up a nagging question. When did the state of Illinois start death certificates? My ancestor Henry Sutton died 1881, would he have one? Also Henry lived crooked creek township Jasper county Illinois. Was there a funeral home in the area? Would the records be somewhere a person could research them? thanks in advance! Vickie Gorby
