Sandra, I ordered several death certs from SF for someone in Australia and got them in less than a month. http://www.sfdph.org/dph/comupg/records/vitalRec/default.asp P.S. I am in Roseville and my business is in Sac. We're neighbors!

When I went on Ancestry in the Birth listing and then clicked through to purchase it, the price was $12 for the certificate and $60 for shipping and handling! Is there another way to get the certificate? Thanks for any response on this. Sandra in Sacramento CA
