On the Indiana Clay Rootsweb page, once you choose Clay County Genealogy Online, as you scroll down, there is a choice of clicking on Clay County Deaths. When I did so, I found a death for: Cress, Harrison, Oct. 6, 1890 age 6 mos This seems VERY likely to be Harry Criss, born the same year. I then sent off to the Clay County Health Dept. for a death certificate. They can't find him under several suggested spellings - Cress, Criss, etc. He does not appear in the WPA death records for Clay County. Does anyone know where this information on the web page came from? It is very important, in that I think he is the last child of my great-grandfather, John C. Criss, whom he calls "Harry" in a list of his children that was written in 1915. I did not know this child existed until the Civil War records came from the National Archives. After Harry's name it says "dead". Harry was born Apr. 13, 1890. A WPA birth record shows a different mother for him than my great-grandmother, but that could be a mistake like many others in the records. So why can't I find a death record if he appears in this Clay County Deaths list? But then, why doesn't he appear in the WPA records? If I could obtain a death certificate, it might clear up as to who really was his mother - Annie Elizabeth Kendall Newton Asbaugh Criss or Mary Henley. So my first priority is to find out where the website info came from, if anyone can help. Laura E.
