Hi Sue, The only other name on the death certificate besides the deceased is the person present at the death who may or may not be the spouse. Do you know if the death certificate exists? It was not required to report deaths so it varies if one exists. Nora Hopkins FitzGerald In a message dated 3/31/2010 3:01:37 A.M.

The death was 25 April 1865. I hope the spouse will be mentioned as that would help verify the marriage I recently found. Sue macduff@embarqmail.com
