I have been searching the California Death Records on VitalSearch. These records are scanned images and I am unable to make out the columns above the numbers. Can anyone identify what the columns are for me? Thank you. Kathy Stoneberg http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~kstoneberg/ourfamily.htm
