Mike: They were talking truthfully. KY death records begin 1911 and the KDI (KY Death Index is online at a number of sites.) Your other options are a search of cemetery tombstone transcriptions or cemetery records themelves, funeral home records, obits. Course, you need to nail down an approximate time period for the death. I think I deleted your first email so the precise info you do have escapes me. If you send it again (and you can send it to cinnfull@msn.com), I'll see what else I can think of. Mary
