Vivian - If you don't mind another question along the same lines. Where does one get ahold of birth/death certs? Even the newer ones (after 1911) aren't one site at the courthouse. The little lady at the Courthouse said they hadn't kept those papers in years and years. Thought they mailed them somewhere, but didn't know for sure. The suggestion was that I look in the cemetery. Any clues? I'm needing a few from right about 1899 and even though they might not be available, I'd love to check anyway.

I am assuming this was at the Bath County Courthouse. If so, where in the courthouse do you go? > > T. K. Rogers
