Hi! After waiting since March, receiving a certified statement that my great grandfather Franklin A. ALLISON died on the date I had listed in my inquiry, then several follow up letters to the DC Vital Statistics office informing them that I wanted the actual death certificate for which I had paid them $12.......yesterday I received the long awaited response from them! However, they sent me the wrong certificate. Wrong name, wrong death date, wrong age, etc. The certificate I received is for an Albert ALLISON from Virginia. It is difficult to read the date of death, as it appears as October 5, 1910 in one place and seems to be 1913 in another. It is also difficult to read the place of birth, appears to be Warrington(?), VA. Albert was a carpenter who died at the age of 30. His birth place, as well as that of his parents, is listed as Virginia. If anyone receiving this message feels that this might be their "Albert ALLISON", please let me know and I will send you a copy of the certificate. I am sending the original back to DC to ask them, once again, for the death certificate of Franklin A. ALLISON. Best wishes, Karima
