The Versailles Area Genealogical
and Historical Society has a project where they are collecting all the
obituaries from the newspapers as far back as there are newspapers to collect
from. You can contact them for help. They are understaffed and a little short of
time and money but I think you may get a response. You can contact them on their
website at: http://vaghs.tripod.com/. If
you can afford it, subscribe to their newsletter and that may encourage them to
respond faster.
For deaths after 1917, you can
request the death certificates from the state. They have a searchable database
too. You can go to that at: http://www.ilsos.net/GenealogyMWeb/idphdeathsrch.html
