Surnames: Date of death from Springfield newspapers Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/xg.2ADI/2568.1 Message Board Post: I would suggest that you contact the Sangamon Valley Room and the Lincoln Library in Springfield. They have the death index for the newspapers which would cover the time period you need. These are on 3x5 cards at the library.
