There are 2 websites to try - both free. The Italian genealogy group and the German genealogy group. Both have indexes for various NYC records including vital records and naturalizations. The vital record indexes include the certif. # and where to send away for a copy. I've found quite a few records there, particularly at the Italian site. You can google it. ...Kim Danielsen Sent from my iPhone On Sep 5, 2011, at 11:31 AM, Kim Hawkins <khawk67@yahoo.com> wrote: > Im trying to find a date of death for Elisabeth (Elisa, Lizzie) Christiansen. She immigrated in 1885 with one son, her husband must have already been in the US. He died before 1900. I found her in the 1900 and 1910 census's living in Brooklyn. She was b. October 21, 1838 in Hederslev, Denmark. The census records all say she was born in Germany but I believe the town of Hederslev had changed hands between Danish and German rule several times in history. She had 3 children all born in Denmark. On the 1910 census she is living with her son august. On the 1920 census he is married and living in Queens. I believe Elisabeth died in Brooklyn between 1910 and 1920 but cant find any death record for her. Ive tried the IGG, Brooklyn info pages, ancestry, familysearch and findagrave. Does anyone know of any other way to find a death date for her? I just moved to a new town, a suburb of detroit, and Im sure there must be an LDS church around here > somewhere...would they have other records?
