Marcia: Deaths weren't recorded in Ohio by the state until 1908. As Pickerington is in Fairfield County, there MIGHT be an article on it in the Lancaster Eagle/Gazette. Check http://www.ohiohistory.org, Archives/Research Tools and check into the newspapers they have available. It's possible that you could inter-library loan the newspaper microfilm from that era. I would also check for other newspapers in Fairfield Co for that timeframe.
