This is a transcription of the Mortality Schedule for the 1860 Macon County, IL Federal census. It's a listing of those who died the previous year, that is, between 1 June 1859 and 1 June 1860. This useful tool predates most state mandated vital records, although it's doubtful this list is a complete listing of everyone who died during that 12 month period, as it was all too easy to overlook someone.

This enumeration was completed by William Prather for the 1860 Macon County, IL Federal Census.
