Coroner's Index - Prior to 1970
The McHenry County Coroner's Office began keeping records about 1871. There are many missing from then until about 1935 or so. If you don't see the person you are looking for, it isn't there. That said, you might find something in the local (to where the event took place) newspaper that will help you.
In the 1970's the office started putting file numbers on the files and you'll see that reflected in some of the records. Please note, if you wish to obtain copies of a particular file, you will need to use the file # if known, the date/or inquest date if no file # and whether or not it is an RTM. There will be a fee for the copies, based on the number of pages.
The Coroner's Office can be contacted at 2200 N. Seminary Avenue, Woodstock, IL 60098.
