Dear
Bob,
You can write directly to the
Brown County Clerk and get a certified copy of the marriage certificate. The
cost is $5. Since they cost so much compared to other Counties, I put images of
the certificates on the web site of those who are willing to share a copy of
their certificates.
Without a death date or at least
a death year you cannot get death certificates from the State. And if they
didn’t die after 1915, there is no certificate for him. Here are all the ones
that are currently listed in the Illinois
database:

are in Brown County. That’s not surprising because the Cemeteries book doesn’t
either. These are the Moran’s listed in the Brown County Cemetery

Hi Ken
and Laurie
Let me
introduce myself--I'm Bob Calabro from Williamsburg Va. I have been trying to
research the geneaology of my wife's grandfather James W. Moran. Since her
parents are not alive and many of the records her father had on family history
were lost in a flood things were not looking too good. But we did have a
starting point of Versailles and her great grandfather Peter also of Versailles.
I could not believe the fantastic wealth of information you have made accessable
on the internet. Congrats to both of you and others that may have been involved
in this project. From your work I now know that Peter was in the 1860 and 1880
census and the 1880 census listed James W. Moran. Using your marriage certifcate
link to the Illinois archives I was also able to find out the Peter married
Bridgett Waters in 1866.
I have
several questions: Do you know who I can contact in Brown County to obtain a
copy of the marriage certificate?? Is there a way to obtain a copy of the 1870
Census (Peter Moran V 273 and 1860 Census Peter Moran MStwp 59) Lastly are
there any links to death certificates in order for me to determine the year of
death for Peter and his wife Bridgett??
Regards
Bob
Calabro
