INTRODUCTION


The purpose of the cemetery database is to allow you to comply with Illinois state law by entering burial information.

If you manage more than one cemetery, make sure the correct cemetery is selected in the black bar prior to
entering burial records.


PURCHASING REGISTRATIONS


Cemeteries will not be required to purchase registrations to enter burial records into the database for burial dates of July 1, 2012 and after.

Cemeteries will be invoiced $2.00 for all entries with burial dates between December 1, 2010 and June 30, 2012.

Cemeteries will be invoiced for these fees after the burial has been entered into the database.

ENTERING BURIAL RECORDS


To enter burial records, click on the "Burial Records" link in the upper left corner of the page. Fill out the form
with deceased and disposition information. When you are finished entering information, click "Save Burial Record"
to save the record to the database.

If you are entering more than one burial record, you can click the "Save and Add New Burial Record" button to save the burial,
which will keep you on the same screen so that you can enter additional burial records.

If you made a mistake and need to remove a burial record, use the "Search Burial Records" screen to find the record that
needs to be deleted, select the record, then click the "Delete" button.

Burials which are Transfers from Another Location

If the remains are being transferred from another cemetery, or from a different location in your cemetery,
be sure to check "This record is a relocation of remains" checkbox. This will allow you to enter additional
information regarding the previous location.

Disinter/Reinter

To move remains, select the burial record you wish to move and click the "Relocate Remains" button at the bottom
of the screen. Next, select the appropriate option:

  • Disinter/Reinter: to move the remains to a new location in the same cemetery
  • Remove from Cemetery: to move the remains to a different cemetery

BURIAL RECORD SEARCH


When you need to modify an existing burial record, use the "Search Burial Records" screen, which is accessible through
the "Burial Records" link in the upper left corner of the page.
Enter search criteria to narrow down the number of results.
