They have an index to the City of Detroit deaths for that time period but it is only Detroit deaths, not Wayne County. http://www.detroit.lib.mi.us/burton/burton_index.htm If you are sure about the time span, you can get a death certificate from the State of Michigan for $26 or $27-it includes a three year search. If you are sure he died in Detroit, then you can get a death certificate from the City of Detroit for less. http://www.michigan.gov/mdch/0,1607,7-132-4645_6245---,00.html http://71.159.22.28/Departments/HealthWellnessPromotionDepartment/tabid/113/Default.aspx http://71.159.22.28/Portals/0/docs/healthandwellness/VitalRecords/deathapplication.pdf Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
