Judy --

If in Portland, much better to go to the State records office just east 
of the Convention Center, where there is minimal waiting while they 
process your request -- exact address online -- the sister-in-law would 
have to do this, as under fifty year old death certs are not released to 
the general public (I think that how it is), or order from one of those 
online services for just a bit more.

Actually, the wife should be able to get a copy of the death cert from 
the funeral home, or at least see the copy they should have.  Lincoln 
Memorial would be able to help with the funeral home name, and maybe 
much more -- just depends, but you have to ask them, first.

And yes, it does seem odd and sends up lots of red flags that the wife 
does not know where he died (it was only a couple years ago), and, if he 
is the husband of your sister-in-law, wouldn't he be your brother?  Then 
you are family and could get this info, too.  Again, odd you don't know 
this ... something you aren't telling?  In genealogical circles, the 
more detail you give, generally it leads to more help.

Is this Bill Scott, as in "Bill Scott Racing"? Naw ...  Nor the Bill 
Scott of  Silicone Valley fame, I suppose ...
