Myra, put Walshville Illinois in your search field. The population is 44 and the number of families is 12. There is a Christian church there. If there is a cemetery there, there can't be many bodies in it. Take a look and find out if he is buried in Walshville. I have been so bold as to write the village council and ask someone to walk up to the cemetery and look. And they will. They may also have a cemetery book. Of course, that is if he was buried in Walshville. I would wager that if he died there, he is buried there. Or in a nearby town As his son assumed his business, a blacksmith shop, and if Walshville has any records at all, you will find Frank Finley. If you have his notice of death, where was it posted? If Walshville is near a large town, that is the newspaper that would have published his death and it will say where he is buried. I was raised in a small Illinois town and everyone knew everthing about everyone. Try it, anyway. Can't hurt. Hillsboro is the County seat of Montgomery county and the Clerks name is Sandy Leitheiser. Rev. Everts
