Hi all, I am having problems finding records on my Great garndfather Charles Lawerence Henize. It seems there was a fire that destroyed some of there records. Is there any way i can find out how he died or get a death certificate? I wrote the county and they show no record of his death. he died April 30 1887. In scioto county. Was ther a newspaper in print at that time? His other children were Margaret Henize and Samuel Henize, James kelly Henize. Margaret and Samuel have lived their entire lives in scioto county. I can't find any living relatives that remember him, since he died so young. He was born in 1849, but I am unsure in what county. Maybe Brown or Lawerence? Thanks Linda Henize
