Laurie, Since he died in GA in 1961, there should DEFINITELY be a death certificate in the State Vital Statistics office in the Capitol. Check there. Usually the local Health Dept has newer DC's but they are required to be sent to the state. That's helpful if you don't know what county he died in. I have a Littleton ancestor with his exact death date but don't even know what state it was in. Try working on THAT HA HA Terry Littleton (listdad)
