There are no death certificates available for many people who died outside of Sherman and Denison prior to the late 1920's. Certificates were not maintained for people who died in many of the rural areas. In addition, death certificates for people who died in Denison prior to the late 1920's can be found at the City Clerk's office in Denison.
