Good morning List(s), I was researching the history of autos and found this by accident, http://mel.lib.mi.us/michigan/MI-history.html - the following URLs were found on this page. Genealogical Death Indexing System, Michigan http://www.mdch.state.mi.us/PHA/OSR/gendis/index.htm - The current system contains information on 150,000 Michigan death records from 1867-1882. The Public Libraries of Saginaw maintains an index of over 125,000 obituaries from the Saginaw News dating back the 1800's. http://www.tricitynet.com/pls/obit.nsf Maybe these will help someone. Good luck! Jacquie (California)
