In my September 8 post titled, “For Your Viewing Pleasure” (http://www.thenews-messenger.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070908/BLOGS02/70906026), I listed four states that had death certificate records available online. Add the state of Georgia to that list. On Georgia's archive Web site, you may now search, view and save death certificates dated 1919 to 1927. There are also some death certificates available on the Web site from 1914 to 1918. The Web address for the Georgia death certificates is http://content.sos.state.ga.us/cdm4/gadeaths.php.
ONLINE ORDERING OF OHIO DEATH CERTIFICATES
The Ohio Historical Society's Web site now offers a link to online ordering of Ohio Death Certificates spanning the years 1909 to 1953. (See http://www.ohiohistory.org/dindex/)
Only those deaths occurring from 1913 through 1944 are indexed and available online, but you may request a death certificate for 1909 to 1912 and 1945 to 1953 as long as you provide all of the following:
1. First Name
2. Last Name
3. Year of Death
AND at least one of the following pieces of information:
1. Month and Day of Death
2. County
3. Certificate #
If they cannot find a close match to the information you have included they will “provide a copy of the original index page showing the names surrounding the name you provided. Your fee covers the cost of this search.”
The cost of online ordering for each death certificate is $7 plus 6.75% sales tax for Ohio residents.
Until Next Time — Happy Ancestral Digging!
