Hi Dave and all, I can only get death certificates from microfilm for the years 1911 through 1956. (1957 soon) All the later years have to be ordered through the Vitals Stats Dept of the Ky State Government. Here is the link to them.... _http://chfs.ky.gov/dph/vital/deathcert.htm_ (http://chfs.ky.gov/dph/vital/deathcert.htm) I couldn't locate a DC for Barstil Hightower either. I'm assuming that no one filed one on him. Lynda In a message dated 12/6/2007 12:46:54 AM Eastern Standard Time, [email protected] writes: Hi Lynda, I'm looking for Myrtle Perkins Death Cert.
