Marilyn, Sorry about that. Birth & Death records go back to 1870 in Hennepin County. There is a form on the site that I gave you the link to for requesting birth and death records . You'll need Adobe Acrobat Reader to print it. You can download Adobe from the site as well. http://www.co.hennepin.mn.us/taxsvcs/gstxctr.htm#death_filings Claudia Schuman - Coordinator http://www.rootsweb.com/~mnhennep/ http://hennbios.tripod.com/index.htm http://fdlbios.tripod.com/index.htm http://www.rootsweb.com/~mnscott/index.htm ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, October 05, 2003 1:29 PM Subject: [MNHENNEP] Death records > Thanks for the info on county birth records, Claudia, but I am wanting to > find a death record.
