Cert #16311 It is not available for viewing online at this time, but can be ordered for $1(I think), Or I will be going to Jefferson City in a few weeks and can stop and get a copy for nothing. For Emma T Richardson her death certificate is available for viewing online or I can email you a copy of it. From her death certificate she passed on May 31, 1925. Dob: Oct 8, 1868, TN Father's name: Louis B Reed b. Unknown Mother's name: E. Rasbury? b. TN Informant was D S Dunklin Cause of death: Can't make out what it says Burial: Gibson Cemetary June 6, 1925 You can find the above certificates and ordering information at: http://www.sos.mo.gov/archives/resources/deathcertificates/#search You will also find Nettie White's death certificate at that website also. At this time, I have yet to locate Dunklin on the 1930 census. However, he is obviously on there as he didn't die until 1950. Do you know any of the Richardson's that I mentioned in my query? Would you mind running the names by your mom? I can't seem to locate my husband's great grandfather for some reason. My mother in law says her grandfather's name was Earnest James Richardson and died when her dad was a teenager. Her dad was born in 1939, so that would put him passing in the mid 50s. I am wondering if she has the name right, as she never knew him. Earnest's wife, Irene Raines is listed on the 1930 Census as married, but living at home with her parents. She was 16 and married at 15. I will be going to Dunklin County Library next week and I will keep my eye open for Dunklin and Emma Richardson's name was I am searching. Kristy
