Hope all had a great 4th of July! Does anyone know where I might look for death records in Muhlenberg. My grandfather was killed there in a mine accident in 1923 and have never been able to locate his death certificate. Have tried the local health dept. and also Frankfort. Was told by Frankfort that it was possibly because of being killed in the mines and that even in 1923 registration of deaths was still "spotty" at best. Thought their might be other local sources.

Lona, I stumbled upon this page yesterday while at work...it was a very slow day! Put your ancestors name in, and county - there are abbreviations- and it may give you the date of death, age, and certificate number so you can request it. http://ukcc.uky.edu/~vitalrec/ Kit (researching in Muhlenberg Co ADKINS, OATES,WILCOX) ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, July 06, 2002 6:52 AM Subject: [KYMUHLEN] DEATH RECORDS > Hope all had a great 4th of July! > Does anyone know where I might look for death records in Muhlenberg.
