Bill, Death records for the late 1800's are sporadic...but the main library, downtown Jax, (the Hayden Burns Branch on Ocean St.) has the Florida Death Records on microfiche in the Genealogical/FL History section. They also have a lot of the old newspapers on microfilm. It's a great resource of information right in your back yard... -----Original Message----- From: William Brown [SMTP:willbees@mediaone.net] Sent: Monday, March 08, 1999 7:47 PM To: FLORIDA-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Florida Death Index Does anyone out there have a Fla Death Index for the late 1800s that could check for a record for one person for me?
