Donna, If indeed you were looking at a Florida Death Index (I would call your Library back and inquire), the county code for 19 would be Citrus County, Florida. You can send for the Death Certificate by mailing all of your relevant death information, and a check for $5.00, to : Office of Vital Records P.O. Box 210 Jacksonville, FL 32231-0042 Good Luck!
