James Henry Throssell 1866 naturalised US citizen, baker of Newark NJ unknown death

John Throssell

1896 Tuesday 1st Sep The Chicago Chronicle P1 refers. James Henry sustained serious injuries whilst a patient at Dunnings Mental Institute in 1896. There was a report the following year in the Chicago Times-Herald 1897 Jan 9 about body snatching from Dunnings. I can find no record of his death or burial/disposal. He had a wife who was alive at the time and should have been informed. Are there any records of Dunnings that might shed a light on his death or discharge or any history up to his death thereafter. Thank you for your time. Regards JT

    Oh Wow ASB, Hit the nail on the head there, thank you very much. I think we can safely assume Your Robert is my Robert too with regards to the date of birth and my Dunnings story. I will try and further the search I am informed that my access is denied on "this" server when opening the link:
        apps.ilsos.gov/.../deathSearch.do I guess you must be using a gov computer.
    I am also getting the same response from: 
       www.ilsos.gov/.../irad.pdf 

    I hope to ask a librarian at  North Eastern Illinois University about their Cook County Asylum records

    Thank you again for such a comprehensive answer
    Regards. John

    Ps. Is ASB your offices, moniker or initials?

    Glad to help, John! I'm not sure why those links won't open for you...? I'm not on a government computer.

    Try googling "Illinois Statewide Death Index" and "Illinois Regional Archives Depository (IRAD) System" to track down those ilsos.gov links.

    ASB are my initials. :)
