To add to Carol's comment, you can go to the Waukegan Public Libraries reference page and make your request via e-mail. Make sure you include your full name and mailing address with your request. Be as specific as possible with a date. It can either be the actual date of death or the burial date. I usually get the obits within 2 weeks. http://www.waukeganpl.org/adref.html Mary http://communities.msn.com/Genealogy2000 [email protected] >From: [email protected] >Reply-To: [email protected] >To: [email protected] >Subject: [[ILLAKE]: ] Re: [[ILLAKE]: ] Newspapers >Date: Wed, 22 Aug 2001 15:33:08 EDT > >Write to the Waukegan Public Library, Jim Keith is reference librarian. >Ask >for a copy of the obit you want with name, and date of death.
