They have certificates on Ohio Deaths 1908-1953.... **Mary VORHEIS** b. 17 Jul 1856 Guernsey County, OH / d. 06 Dec 1940 Cambridge, Guernsey County, OH (died at the Children & Maternity Hospital)/ Buried: 08 Dec 1940 at Burmingham Cemetery / Cause of death: (ineligible)/Listed as a widow of Albert VORHEIS / Father's name: Jeb. HAWKINS b. OH /Mother's name: Don't Know /Informant: Chas Vorheis Pueubuselgoe/Rueubuselgoe (middle name Vorheis???.... Found another that may help you know where to search as indicated where she was born..... **Cora Ethel HINKEL** b. Abt 1890 Ala / d. 18 Jul 1918 Girard, Trumbull County, OH / buried: Belmont Park Cemetery / Cause of death: [can't understand writing! something caused by something she had for years] / Father: Albert VORHEIS b. VA / Mother: Mary HAWKINS b. OH / Spouse: ? / Informant: Edger HINKEL (spouse???)..... I'm searching the HAWKINS and am also having some difficulties. Seems there were some VOORHES and HAWKIN marriages. I have two.... Elisha HAWKINS and Sarah Anne VOORHES in 1846 (divorced) * Elisha later married Catharine R WADDELL in 1868 * Sarah later married Charles SMITH (after divorce with HAWKINS).... and Elisha and Catherine had a son Hiriam who married a Rosa VOORHES.... My line is Elisha HAWKINS but am trying to figure out which wives is my line! He has a daughter, Mary Rebecca HAWKINS b. 25 May 1856 Senecaville, Guernsey County, OH and she married Isiah WALTERS. Her death certificate indicated that Elisha and Catherine WADDELL HAWKINS were her parents. However, those so-named parents didn't marry until 1868. The VOORHES/VORHIES/VOORHIES and HAWKINS are definitely CONFUSING!!!! Hope the information on these two above death certificates gives you some lead....
