I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice for obtaining an obituary? I'm looking for a man named Jim Salts of Galesburg, Knox County, Illinois. I have his birthdate as August 1859 and his death date as 17 Jul 1939 in Galesburg. >From what I can tell, his father was Leland Arthur Salts and his mother was Eunice Fenton (she died sometime before 1880 after being hit by lightning - in Kansas or Nebraska). Jim was married to Dorsey Smith and had three children...Nina, Harry and Harvey. Many thanks. Sam
