Yes it does. But if it's listed in CADI with an Alameda county location then it should be available in Alameda county and they should be able to find it without a number if the person wants to order it from the county. If the county can't locate it then the person knows that the state can. I do most of my lookups for NORCAL which is not county specific. I really don't want to keep track of county vs state numbers. I appreciate the suggestion but I think that Alameda specific requests should probably go to someone that has volunteered for Alameda lookups. Just took a look at the CA Helplist http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Ranch/6995/ and two names are listed for CADI lookups for Alameda county. Laurel is also the GenWeb host for the Alameda county GenWeb site. Laurel Egenberger laurele@hooked.net California Death Index (mid-1905 - 1992) and George W. Anderson Jr. gwa@ccnet.com California Death Index 1905-1990 I would be happy to provide the county number to a person that is actually going to volunteer to visit the courthouse and transcribe the death certificate - (I have a couple of death certificates I would like to have looked up that I don't want to buy.) I don't see anyone volunteering for that in Alameda county. Why is that do you think?
