I believe the clerk's office entryway faces Liberty Ave. You might want to call for precise directions; I was there in November, so don't recall the exact address. Jersey County Courthouse 201 W. Pearl St. Jerseyville, IL 62052-1675 Phone (618) 498-5571 The County Clerk has: Birth and Death records from 1878; Marriage and Land records from 1839; Divorce records from 1840; Probate records from 1850; Civil Court records from 1845. Also, if you're going to Jerseyville, it's well worth it to spend an hour or two at the Jersey County Historical Society. They have a lot of resources and are very helpful.
