1860 Mortality Schedule
Jersey County, Illinois

Of Persons who Died during the Year ending 1st June 1860, enumerated by G. A. Roberts. From copies of the original microfilm courtesy of the IL State Archives, Springfield, IL. These deaths occurred from 1 June 1859 and ended 1 June 1860. I do not believe this is a complete listing of deaths for Jersey County. At the bottom of one of the copied pages is this notation by the enumerator, "Being a misapprehensive about this Jersey I think this is ______ all the deaths of County for 1859. Which was a very h_____ year. I would note the number at 140 to 160 _______." These words were cut off on the copy. I see a need to check further with the Archives as a result. It appears that the enumerator didn't believe this was a complete listing. There are only 70 deaths listed. As with any transcribed records, there could be errors and should not be considered correct until documented. As the writing was hard to decipher, mistakes could have been made in the interpretations. I have inserted a ? where I found it difficult to interpret with exception of the first entry, there was no surname given but was listed under KIRKNER, G L. And it was difficult to distinguish the enumerators version of 7 and 9 as noted in a couple of readings. Also, I have the cause of death if anyone is interested just contact kaylorma@insightbb.com
