Lots of individual Georgia counties have posted their death records on their websites. As for the statewide index, the only one I know of is the one at Ancestry which is probably by subscription only. This is a very helpful list. If the index is available online elsewhere, I am sure someone will post that information for you, and I am sorry that I wasn't able to be of more help.

Hi, I am seeking information on DAVID JOHNSTON born about 1790 in Wilkinson Co., Georgia. He was a riverboat pilot and eventually settled in Plaquemines Parish in the late 1830s. He married HANNA FREDERIKA HOFFMANN on 5 Feb. 1840 and had one son ALEXANDER HENRY JOHNSTON b. 1841. David died in 1852 and according to his will his parents and brothers and sister had died before him. I do not have much on David beyond an approximate birth year. I would love to find out about his parents, brothers and sisters, etc. So if anyone is researching JOHNSTON; please e-mail me even if you think it may not be the same family; cause you never know. Thanks in advance for your responses, Tami Johnston-Parise JOHNSTON/HOFFMANN/WEISHEIMER/SPROUL(e)/SHERWOOD/KISEL(RISEL)/HOERNER/ZWEIFEL/DOCLAUR/USNER/MCDERMOTT

Hello, If you had ancestors move to Warrick Co., IN you may find them buried in one of the cemeteries there. Formany years I have taken pictures in various cemeteries. I have begun to put these pictures online to share with folks. I have over 250 pictures from Maple Grove Cemetery and am adding more frequently. There are also a few pictures from some of the smaller cemeteries. Just click in the link below my name or copy and paste it to your browser. When you get to the Genealogy Resources page, click on Cemetery Photos link. I tried to keep the pages small enough to load in around one minute for 28.8 modems. There are also some Vanderburgh Co., IN and KY cemeteries posted on the site. I hope you find your ancestors grave in one of these cemeteries. If not check back often as I am adding new pages as fast as I have time. Regards, Virginia L. Aldridge Genealogy Resources http://www.genealogy-resources.net/
