    1. [SCKY] KY Death Certificates
    2. Sherri
    3. Another excellent source for KY death certificates is the KY Vital Records Project. It's an all volunteer project that is transcribing the certificates and actually posting images of the KY death certificates on our site. There are more than 297,500 images posted there and are totally free to access. You'll find the project at http://kyvitals.com. The transcriptions are searchable from a link on that page. We have images of almost all of the DCs from 1911-1919. We're currently working on the 1920 certificates. I know there are about 3,000 from 1916 that are not there - we have to digitize that roll of microfilm again as the original images weren't up to our standard and a few that were so faint they couldn't be read so they're not there. We're always looking for volunteers to help process the images and to transcribe them. I encourage everyone to consider joining the volunteers that are working behind the scenes to make these records available. You can also submit certificates to be added to the collection if you have any you want to share. Sherri
