He is listed as Grandson. Is the wife Minnie, his 2nd wife? If so what is her maidename? His wife on the 1910 census is Dora.

I have some for 1855. Not all records contained a death date so its hard to say exactly where we are. I have indexed what we have so far and the Courthouse did provide us with an index for names A thru H. As to calling or writing the courthouse: Vermilion COunty Courthouse 7 North Vermilion St Danville, Ill 61832 Attn: Sue Miller The later probate records are located on 4th floor and the older ones are on first floor. As for any phone directories you don't get a "human" voice response and the probate office listed will connect you to the 4th floor office and not Sue Miller you must request speaking with Sue Miller or Peggy. 431-5242 is the probate office# Good Luck!!

Kowallek [email protected] ******************

Lois The Illiana Genealogical & Historical Society is in the process of preparing all the probate records for Vermilion County to be microfilmed. Thus all the records are now at the Society and not at the courthouse. If you wish to obtain copies of his will or what probate records are available, contact them. I believe they are charging $1.00 per page. Since probate records not only contain the will (if one is there), it also contains all the bills submitted by creditors, and records to show that they were paid, list of heirs(sometimes) adminstrative bond or executor's bonr(if a will)Inventory of the decease' estate and if sold, who bought articles, sometimes land records , sometime guardianship papers if minor children (as the wife could not own property and could not be guardian for her own children)so you need to pick and choose what you are interested in, as some files are very long and costly!! I am also working on these records have been imputing all the records in index form. William K Cotton, 10-12-1849 or 12-4-1849 Box 30 Case #7. (You will need this if you want his records) If others on this list read this, we are only at 1853 at present. But you will need to know what Box and case # the person is to be found as we don't have any index . That's available at the courthouse. We also have from 1899 to 1931 completed also. HOpe this helps Granny

My Goodness, Granny! What a good gal you are! Thank you for this pertinent information. I am sending for this immediately!

Thanks, Lois. I will write for one. Do you live in Vermillion County? If there is a will, there might also be a probate. We could also look in the Administrators, Bonds, and Letters book. They put out a lot of good information. If you live in this county, you could just go look at them. The clerks must let the people view these documents. Let me know.

It would be rare indeed to find an obit for 1849. You would have to check with the Danville Public Library to see how far back their papers go Granny

There are a few in Danville for 1860s but I doubt there are any for 1849. The Danville Public Library would have them if there are any. Contact them at: by phone (217) 477-5228,fax (217) 477-5230, or by writing to them at Archives Department Danville Public Library 319 N. Vermilion, Danville, IL 61832 Below are the e-mail and contact in the Archives and the Library web site.
