Does anyone know if there is a Montgomery County, PA death index on the web that can be searched in the 1920's? Deborah

Hi Deborah --- Nothing like that exists. Death records in Pennsylvania after 6-30-1915 are exclusively under the control of the Commonwealth (State). There is no county recording, or any public index. Certainly would be nice if they would merely post the names, date of death, and location to allow us a clue. On the other hand, if you access the PA Vital Records Website (Dept of Health), you will find that the fees out of New Castle PA are quite low ($3), and if you have the year, you will get the cert. If you are sure of a sequence of years, there is a special $28 genie rate for 10 years. What is available at Norristown PA are the wills and administrations. The Montg Archives (access through www.montcopa.org and then select Departments, and locate Archives) is usually quite pleasant and might be able to do a quick lookup in the index for you, and then advise you of how many pages and the costs - quite reasonable. good luck dennis ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, June 20, 2003 8:56 PM Subject: [PAMONTGO-L] Montgomery County Death Index Does anyone know if there is a Montgomery County, PA death index on the web that can be searched in the 1920's?
