Records of deaths in Hillsdale County Michigan were not recorded until 1867. Papers in that area would be sketchy at best. Collateral lines that may have been located in the area may offer clues on your ancestor. Any chance of other relation being in the same area and dying after the 1867 time period?

The Feb/Mar 2010 issue of INTERNET GENEALOGY has lots of interesting articles or announcements on various ethnic groups French-Canadians, Greeks , Scottish, Africa-American & Devonshire wills (English). They also have a general one on “Best Canadian Genealogy Blogs”.
