    3. Is it possible to access the 1910 State Hospital records directly to see if they contain any information about an inmate that doesn't appear in the State of Ohio death certificate? I have found a copy of a State of Ohio death certificate for a James GARES online at http://search.labs.familysearch.org/recordsearch/ in which it says that the 'Informant' was the State Hospital Records in Columbus. He was an inmate from October 14, 1909 until his death on March 1, 1910, but 'unknown' is entered on the lines for his parents and birthplace. However, he was to be buried in Groveport Ohio, where my GARES ancestors lived. I've never found any reference to a James GARES in our family records, so I'm very curious to learn more about this James GARES. While there are number of men named James GARES in the various Census records, none seems close enough to be the 'right' fellow, so I'm stumped. Thanks in advance for any info re other sources, or suggestions for further research. K. Steward Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
