It would be really nice if you could get a death certificate for james Wright, b 1872, Howard Co. Thus running a good chance (if he had a good "informant" of not only his parents' names being shown on this certificate but also their place of BIRTH! These first death certificates, 1910 -1950 are often very good. You would need to know his approximate date of death ( in Missouri.) to give to them in the vital stats office in Jeff City. -----Original Message----- From: JUPEP@aol.com <JUPEP@aol.com> To: MOHOWARD-L@rootsweb.com <MOHOWARD-L@rootsweb.com> Date: Saturday, March 08, 2003 1:42 PM Subject: [MOHOWARD-L] James Wright b. 1872, Howard Co., MO >Hello all.
