know about Portland and what records they kept for
Multnomah, Clackamas and Washington counties, but in Coos
county I was very surprised to find a book in the Coos
county court house that had a record of communicatible
diseases listed by date
[<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://genealogytrails.com/ore/coos/death/disease-date.html">http://genealogytrails.com/ore/coos/death/disease-date.html</a>].
I have only transcribed 1907-1910 for the Coos county
records, but it's possible that such indexes were kept in
other counties as well. I can tell you that the ledger I
found is not on the Coos County Records Inventory
[<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://arcweb.sos.state.or.us/county/cpcoosdescrip.html">http://arcweb.sos.state.or.us/county/cpcoosdescrip.html</a>] so
without a personal visit looking for such a book, you might
miss it. If it exists, it would at least let you know if the
person was suffering from the disease near the time of their
death, and if it was a widespread problem in that area. <var

Re: [or-roots] Oregon death index lookup<br>
</font><br>
<div id="yiv1195611302">
<div>Since I don't know the exact year or date of my
aunt's death but know that it was sometime around 1914
or 1915 and she was a child. Is there anyway of knowing
if there was some sort of epidemic in that time frame in
Portland? I know she is buried in the old pioneer
cemetery in Portland and I have contacted them but they
only have a record of her being buried there with two of
her siblings and a step mother (all in the same area).</div>
<div>I would really like to know the date of her death and
what she died from but can't find a death record.</div>
<div>Her name was Verna Marie Hardwick and her parents
were Noah Hardwick and Venus Howell.</div>
<div>Any help would be greatly appreciated.</div>

<div>Les, Newspaper pages are available for
newspapers published between 1846-1922 are the
years available for papers in Portland, Ontario,,
Oregon City, Bend, Scottsburg, Coos Bay, Burns,
Salem, Jacksonville, Medford and Klamath Falls. I
was just hoping to see his name there, so only
searched Portland and Astoria. since the death
had not yet occured, it would not have been
listed. You can type in one name and search all
the above papers....but it comes up with a zillion
entries. This is a beta site so at times in is
'resting'. Diane</div>
