Although the project is still a work in progress, Missouri death certificates are being put on line for viewing, saving, or copying. I just saved my great-grandparents death certificates to my Spencer file. I found other maiden names of great grand aunts that I did not know before tonight. Kind of exciting. If you have ancestors who died in Missouri you may be able to view the death certificate at this link http://www.sos.mo.gov/archives/resources/deathcertificates/#search Not all are viewable online yet, but they are working on it. I saw several other names that I'll be going back to check on every few weeks. If you are patient enough think of the fees you'll save! Sue
