Three cheers for Union County! A $1 million grant has been awarded to obtain the old officers' club at old Camp Breckenridge. This was announced in the Union Co newspaper this morning. This grant means the Union Co Historical Society will have a place for their materials and the murals will remain in Union County. Brenda Joyce Jerome, CGRS

Crittenden Record-Press 6 July 1911 "Uncle Willis" Hamilton of Caseville, KY, who has just celebrated his 106th birthday, probably is the oldest man living in Kentucky. Up to a short time ago he was able to walk alone to Sturgis, KY, a distance of six miles. He is hale and hearty and bids fair to live several more years. Brenda Joyce Jerome, CGRS

Diana, thanks for posting the E-Mail address at which to find KY Death Record information. I can hardly wait to check it out! Pam Groover in Va. Bch., VA

The cost of death certificates are $6.00 each. I called them and got a fax number from them and by sending the information along with a credit card account# they told me they would have them in the mail within three working days. They kept their word and I had received them here in Texas with 5 days. Kentucky Vital Statistics has a page on the Internet you can even look up by name to see if they have a record of it. It lists the name, date of death, age, volume and page #. http://www.kdla.state.ky.us/arch/vitastat.htm I was able to find quite a number of family records and ones I wasn't sure about. They only have records from 1901 or 1910 to current. Earlier records were usual kept in the county courthouse. Hope this helps, any problems let me know and I will be glad to search that page for you if you would give me the names. I was so excited when I found my great-grandfather's death record as I didn't know for sure when he died. I was really impressed with their service.

Does anybody know the current cost to obtain a KY death certificate?

Henderson Gleaner July 1900 Quinine Jim McKenzie Now that his cousin Adlai is a candidate, the friends of "Quinine Jim" McKenzie are hoping that he will come out of hiding in the rural districts of Christian county and mount the stump and let the people once more hear the kind of oratory that has become far too scarce in these latter days. McKenzie has but few equals and no superiors is a campaigner, and the Democrats in this section hope to hear much of him during the present campaign. Betty Sellers
