I am not sure if you will be able to help me with this. I am trying to find out when my great grandfather died. I am not certain that he died
in Wapello County, but I think so. I do not have his date of death.

Here is what I do know...
His name was Henry Schultz, born in 1866 in Germany. (birth name ofHeinrich was aparently changed when he came to the US.)

He and his wife Lillie were married in McLean County, Illinois in 1890. They moved to Wapello County, Iowa in about 1910. The 1915 Iowa Census shows them asliving in Washington, Wapello County (and showed their years in Iowa as (5) and at the 1920 US Census they were in Agency, Wapello County.

They are not listed in the 1925 Iowa Census. In the 1930 US Census, Lillie was re-married and living back in McLean County, Illinois.
So I know that Henry Schultz died sometime between 1920 and 1929.

My guess is that he died in Wapello County, Iowa before 1925, and Lillie
moved back to Illinois after his death.

If it would be possible for you to search your resources to find out ifhe died in Wapello County, I would be greatly appreciative! If it is too broad of a search, I completely understand. I thought it would be worth a shot to ask, since I am stuck! Maybe if somebody could go to the courthouse and look for his death record, I would be most grateful!!
Thank you so much!
