Valerie, I have a photo of my Great-Great-Grandfather's memorial stone that was sent to my Great-Grandmother Anna Kleff Lucking from Germany, when her father died. I wonder what they do with the memorial stones, this was quite a large one and must have cost a bit, I may have the last record of it. Thanks, Carol L. Heap, FL You live as long as you are remembered

I have three ancestors who died in Yonkers but not sure of the exact dates. One died between Sep 1902 and 1904 (diving accident; broken neck) One died I think in Mar 1912 (most likely old age) One died about 1913 (typhoid) Is it possible to request a death certificate without knowing the exact date of death? If not, is there a death index where I (or someone who has access to it) could look up the names to try and ascertain an exact date? This info has been lost through the family generations so that no one knows anymore. --------------------------------- Yahoo! oneSearch: Finally, mobile search that gives answers, not web links.

Paul, Do you know where they are buried?? If so contact the cemetery and they will give you the dates you need. Sometimes you can email them so as to save a toll call. If you don't have the above info, then contact the Yonkers Town Clerk and explain what you need. Email or smail would be best for explanations..... then follow up with a call. For two out of the three that you're looking, for you know the year of death. It's not a monumental job for them to look up all the deaths by that name for just one year. We're not talking abour a large city here in the early 1900s.
