[or-roots] Death certificates from the Archives

[Sharon Ryan]

If the parents belonged to a religion you would be able to search their
records and if the records are available that would be a good area to
search.  Not all are readily available but the Catholic Church Records are
very good if they were Catholic.

Remember that reporting of deaths to the state was spotty even in the 1915 -
1919 time frame.  If it is not in the Oregon Death Index, there was probably
no death certificate filed with the state.  

 

If it was a child, there might have been a notice in the newspaper but not
necessarily an obituary.  It could be as simple as "The daughter of Mr. &
Mrs. Hardwick died yesterday."

Don't forget the Oregon Death Index which covers the years 1903 - 1998. It
is available on Ancestry.com. and also at the Archives. I checked, however,
and there were 90 Hardwicks but no Verna or anything close.

What if all you know is the child's name and where she was buried but


not the actual death date which was sometime between 1915 and 1919?

Dear Rooters,





Just want to remind folks that you can receive copies of death


certificates that are more than 50 years old from the Reference Unit


here at the State Archives.  We have just received the records from 1959


and opened them to researchers as of Monday the 4th.





You can send an email request to the reference desk at:





reference.archives at state.or.us 





Cost for death certificates for in-state resident is $5.00, out-of state


resident is $10.00





Of course you are always welcome to visit in person and make a copy for


.25 cents.





Regards,





Layne Sawyer
