<DIV>HI ALL:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My unit down with bad motherboard. But the last writer was correct. Many of the old</DIV>
<DIV>mortuaries records may still be found in the successor. In Grants Pass and several other</DIV>
<DIV>cities in Minn. we have found them very cooperative and sometimes allowing one to browse</DIV>
<DIV>thier books, at other times to volunteer when given a list of names, We got lot of information</DIV>
<DIV>from one where the family member had skipped and not paid the bill. Knowing where they</DIV>
<DIV>could find him, helped.<BR><BR><BR>-----Original Message----- <BR>From: LinLouVan@aol.com <BR>Sent: Oct 4, 2005 8:46 PM <BR>To: or-roots@sosinet.sos.state.or.us <BR>Subject: Re: [or-roots] Need ideas on where to locate death certificate <BR><BR></DIV>

<DIV>Trish,</DIV>
<DIV>Have you checked with the mortuaries that are now in existence. Many times the</DIV>
<DIV>old records go with the sale of the business. And, sometimes you just have to </DIV>
<DIV>ask the right questions.</DIV>
