I'm looking for a death cert and/or obit for Abner McWilliams, b.<1852>, IN., d. 9 Apr 1889, Vermilion Co., IL. (Do death certs from that time show parents' names?) Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much.

Hi Linda,

Can't help you with DC or Obit but if this is your Abner his parents were Abner & Amanda. Wife Eliz. Also, you typed Vermillion IL....should it be Indiana?

Hi Linda,

Ignore by comment regarding Vermillion. I see he was married in Vermillion County and lived in Vermillion IL in1880.

Sorry
