Does anyone know where I might research a death record by date. My gggrandmother, Susan Smith Davis Hendrickson died in Knox Co., IL on 27 May 1926. Her last marriage was to Wm. B. Hendrickson per 1870 census. However, I can't find a death record for her. Now, I'm wondering if maybe she remarried and is listed under a different surname. Anyone have info abt a Susan who died 27 May 1926? I would welcome any help or suggestions. Thank you. GraceJackson@aol.com
Grace, I checked the IL state death index for any spelling of Hendrickson and then I also checked it for Susan Davis, just in case she went back to her first married name. The only thing close that I found was - Susan Hendrix d 20 Feb 1937 Knox Co. At this point, if you are sure of her death date, I would order in the Knox Co. papers for the date and see if there was an obit, either she married again or died elsewhere.
